Love Stories

Sage slayed as a bridesmaid in Elaina’s wedding at Sugar Pine Barn (which we just blogged about here), and somehow managed to keep her cool while I was running around trying to find good light. Fast forward a few months, and I found myself planning a trip to sunny San Diego. I reached out to […]

I crossed paths with Ty and Lizzy at the 3 Rivers Bridal Show in 2024. Fast forward, and here we are. They had a dreamy, colorful Washington barn wedding at Sugar Pine Barn at Tucannon Cellars. Their wedding was exactly what you hope love looks like. Sugar Pine Barn is absolute magic. It’s hidden between […]

If you’ve ever driven through southwest Washington and thought, “Huh, I wonder if there’s anywhere around here that looks like it was pulled straight out of the European countryside,” surprise—there is. It’s called Monet Vineyards, and it’s tucked at the base of the Cascade Mountains, quietly minding its own business and looking like it belongs […]

You know those days where the weather shows up, the people are happy, and the wine tastes extra good? That was Elaina and Gage’s wedding day at Sugar Pine Barn. This place is essentially what happens when a cozy cabin and a vineyard have a baby—wood walls, open fields, sunshine, and a mix of rustic […]

When you think about a Siren Song Winery wedding, if you’re imagining some rustic barn with mason jars and string lights—pause, delete, and reprogram. This Chelan, WA wedding venue is a European daydream, with Tuscan-style stone walls, climbing vines, and a backdrop that truly makes you feel like you’re in a different country. Lake Chelan […]

There’s just something about wedding mornings—the mix of nerves and excitement. Michelle and Terrance’s Moore Mansion wedding started the same way most great love stories do: surrounded by people who adore them, a little chaos in the background, and a whole lot of anticipation. The getting-ready hours were calm, filled with laughter and deep breaths. […]

This whole Cannon Beach engagement photos adventure started as a “small world” moment. I went to school with Kellen. Fast forward a few years, and I meet Michaela at the Three Rivers Bridal Show—she’s glowing, full of wedding excitement, and the kind of person who instantly makes you want to be her friend. When they […]

Okay, I know we all say we love love, but watching Kendall and Nick’s first look at The Greenhouse on Harvard was a true attempt at not smudging my mascara. There’s just something about two people seeing each other for the first time on their wedding day. Kendall looked like an ethereal fairy queen, and […]

Sunlight, saguaros, and just the two of them — this Arizona elopement portrait session was a full-on love letter to the desert (yes, even from someone who already lives in the desert part of Washington). Morgen and Jesse met me out in Scottsdale for this editorial-style shoot at Camelback Mountain, and the vibes were immaculate. […]

Dane and Bettina’s Washington winery wedding at Terra Blanca was effortless in the best way. Terra Blanca always delivers. Pretty stone walls, moody fall light, and rows of grapevines make you feel like you’re in the Italian countryside rather than Eastern Washington. It was one of those crisp PNW spring days. The trees were turning, […]
