Heather and Eric had their fabulous wedding at Willows Lodge in Woodinville. It was a pleasure to spend the day with them, their friends and their family!

You can see the slideshow here!

Willows Lodge is next door to Red Hook Brewery. Heather, Eric and I walked over there for a few portraits. Very fun.

Here is Eric and his groomsmen. I love my 24L (that’s a lens).

Willows has this huge, cool tree stump thing out in front of the lodge. I wanted to get the whole thing with the blue sky and sun, but that left Heather and Eric in almost complete darkness, so I pulled out my handy dandy remote flash and brightened them up a bit. Very fun!

The centerpieces were cool. I like it when they figure out how to make something cool and decorative and at the same time let the guests see the other side of the table.

It is a pet project of mine to take interesting images of the glassware that is always sitting around at weddings.

I had a fabulous time at Sneha and Tarak’s wedding. The Westin in downtown Bellevue was beautiful. I also my favorite little assistant (my daughter) along for the first part of the day. We had a blast!

Sneha cracks up at something Tarak said. This happened a lot with them!

Sneha and Tarak were married on the 13th, so we took a gook luck photo to illustrate it!

I caught this image of a mother holder her daughter’s stuffed animal - this is an Ugly Doll for those of you without children!

Tarak’s family paraded down a side street with the assistance of DJ Rocky and his portable in-truck setup.

Sneha’s family came out to greet Tarak and his family and join them in the dancing.

Here is another from Annie and Ryan’s wedding at Cedarbrook last week.

By Seattle Wedding Photographer Cory Parris

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.

The ISPWP (International Society of Professional Wedding Photographers) is a very cool organization. They only let in the best photographers, require you to have photographed 50 weddings as the primary photographer, and you have to get past the membership committee as they scrutinize your work for quality. I liked the idea of the ISPWP so much that I joined and volunteered to be a member of the membership committee. Then they had a contest and I entered nine images and eight of them placed!

I think the critique of this image is funny. I thought it was cool that you could see the Space Needle on the left and I purposely shot the image so the Space Needle would be visible!

I was very happy to place in this category as I figured it would have the most entries and the most outstanding images.
