Four Seasons Seattle | Greek Orthodox Wedding

VOULA & VASILI | WEDDING | FOUR SEASONS HOTEL & ST. DEMETRIOS | SEATTLE, WA

When I first met Voula and Vasili, I was quickly struck by the chemistry between them. They are such a loving, fun and spontaneous couple! I was given the privilege of shooting two engagement sessions for them, one in gorgeous Laguna Beach, California and one in Seattle. Voula and Vasili are very much in love, and it was an honor to witness. The morning of the big day started at the Four Seasons Hotel in Seattle followed by a traditional ceremony at St. Demetrios Greek Orthodox Church. The day was filled with amazing moments, dramatic light, and most importantly, amazing people.  Congratulations Voula and Vasili!

Hawaii is a very special part of the world.  I have frequented the islands for years, and I always leave refreshed and inspired.  Amber and Earl chose Maui (The Valley Isle) for their destination wedding.  Guests traveled from afar to bear witness to their union set in a lush background of tropical paradise. The festivities started with a boat ride rehearsal dinner, which included whale watching, mai tai’s and a delicious dinner.  The wedding was held at the Maui Sheraton on the Kaanapali Coast in West Maui.  After the intimate ceremony we captured images on a breathtaking cliff overlooking the ocean.  The light was amazing and made for memorable and dramatic photographs.  Dinner and the receptions followed.  The day after the wedding, we met at the Wailea Fairmont and captured a few more portraits before heading off to Secrete Beach.  Take a look at the rest of the story below!  Congratulations Amber and Earl!

ANDREA & TONY | WEDDING | FAUNTLEROY UNITED CHURCH OF CHRIST | DISCOVERY PARK : DAYBREAK STAR INDIAN CULTURAL CENTER | SEATTLE, WA

Adjectives: Open, Natural, Playful, Real, Romantic and Fun.

Tony surprised Andrea on Christmas morning with one last present… the promise to spend the rest of their lives together!  One month ago, on a beautiful July day, they celebrated these promises with their closest friends and family.  The ceremony was held in West Seattle at the Fauntleroy United Church of Christ.  Tony and Andrea chose not to see each other prior to the ceremony and emotion and excitement was felt by all as Andrea walked down the aisle.  After the ceremony, we hopped on school buses and captured a few images image in Alki before hearing to Discovery Park in Magnolia.  Discovery Park is by far one of my favorite photo locations in Seattle.  The magnificent fields, old buildings and beach make such outstanding backdrops for images.  The reception at Daybreak Star Indian Cultural Center followed.  Enjoy my favorites and the rest of the story below!
