Here is the whole set of Annie & Ryan’s engagement portraits in the downtown Bellevue area. Annie and Ryan were a lot of fun to photograph. They are very happy together and up for whatever I had in mind - including laying down on the ground in a parking lot! I can’t wait to photograph their wedding next month!

This image was taken at the top of the Bellevue Square parking garage.

I liked this image. The texture comes from shooting through a chain link fence.

This was my favorite image of Ryan that I took that day. I like the lines of the fence, posts, and his shoulders.

Right in the middle of Bellevue, there is a Safeway that is going to be demolished soon. Perfect spot for a portrait!

The Golf Club at Newcastle is one of my favorite places to photograph a wedding.  This is good, since it is one of the most populare locations for a wedding in the Seattle area.  Newcastle sits high atop a hill just south of Bellevue with amazing views of Lake Washington and Seattle.

I love these kinds of “portraits” where the bride and groom are just interacting with each other. We always try to get a few with everyone smiling at the camera etc., but then also encourage our subjects to just be in the moment and concentrate on each other. It always results in great pictures.

I think you can see Mike’s nerves in his hands.

Everyone love their children and think theirs are the best. I’m not different! Here are some photographs of my amazing children that we took in November for our holiday cards. Now that everyone has seen the cards, I can put out the images!

All these are really just the tip of the iceberg. I could easily have put in another 20 images!

Here’s a few pictures from a recent wedding at the Edgewater Hotel on the Seattle Waterfront. We also stopped for a few quick pictures at Kerry Park and Gasworks.
