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. […]

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 […]

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, […]

Feeling the pressure to pick a venue? I get it. Choosing your wedding venue is kind of like trying to pick a Netflix show with your partner—except instead of wasting 30 minutes scrolling, you’re potentially blowing tens of thousands of dollars and setting the entire tone of your day: no pressure or anything. If you’re […]

Promise Garden in Pasco, WA, is a place that makes you feel like you’ve stumbled into a secret garden while somehow still being roughly five minutes from your favorite taco truck. It’s just off Road 68 on Argent, but blink, and you’ll miss it—because this spot is tucked away behind lush greenery. If you’re dreaming […]

There’s nothing better than showing up to a wedding and already knowing some of the guests. I’ve photographed several of Alex and Tim’s friends over the years, so being asked to capture their day was a full-circle moment. Plus, I love a good Cle Elum wedding moment. We already had the best time during their […]

Let’s talk about one of the biggest (and most exciting) parts of wedding planning—picking the perfect venue. I know it can feel like a lot of pressure. Your venue sets the tone for your wedding day, and with so many options, it’s easy to get stuck down a rabbit hole. Do you want something elegant […]
