Ashley and Alex during their first dance at the beautiful Imperia Lake Union venue in Seattle. Ashley and Alex are a fantastic, warm, and caring couple that met at their gym. It was a lot of fun to photograph the two of them and their friends and family at their Imperia Lake Union wedding. They had a set designer create a very cool backdrop on the stage for their wedding.

Senior portraits are fun to photograph. I help the kids and parents plan a session where they can both be comfortable and get something really fun and cool to share with their friends and family.
