I would like to thank everyone who voted for me for the King 5 Best of Western Washington Photographer! Winners will be announced soon.
As the main wedding season is dying down I’m still busy finishing everything up and starting to book for 2010 and 2011.
Ryan and Rachelle got married at the Federal Way Community Center and I had the honor of doing their photos. This was a huge wedding and Heather helped me out again as a second photographer. Just about all of my friends were there, along with my parents and three couples whose weddings I’ve shot in the last few years. Rachelle had her hair done in downtown Kent at Salon Ivoni. Rachelle’s Uncle Angelo Pizarro played music for the outside portion of the wedding into the evening. He is an amazing guitar player and he regularly plays at Blossom Asian Bistro in Renton. Bigtime Entertainment handled the DJ work and had their big new system going!
I was recently contacted by Druids Glen Golf Club to do some promo shots for their website, and I will be one of their featured vendors for next year!
I did engagement photos for Rachele and James down at Lake Wilderness Park in Maple Valley. This is one of my favorite local spots! The fall colors were starting to come out.
I also did Jacob’s senior photos at Lake Wilderness recently.
I finally had the opportunity to shoot cute baby photos at a pumpkin patch for my 10th session with baby Katie! We went down to Spooner Farms in Orting. They had fields of pumpkins with big spiders, a corn maze, gift shop, animals, and covered areas for when it started to rain.
Later the same day we visited Karen, Brian and their new son Jeremy for a shoot up in Kenmore. Jeremy had a wardrobe change into a cute skeleton outfit with a matching hat and socks.
I took this photo of our cat Jazz while he was sitting in his favorite spot on the couch.
