Wedding

Written By

One of my highlights of summer '16 was shooting Yan and Donald's wedding @ The Canal in Seattle/Ballard, WA. I met with the couple almost a year ago and felt a great connection as we mapped out the wedding day and shot list. Their story is quite wonderful, as they met at the University of Washington and bonded through Yan teaching Chinese to Donald.Fast forward to the wedding day. The initial sunshine soon turned into overcast, which led to rain. However, the elements had no effect on Yan and Donald. Their photos were first taken at Donald's place, where they also had their First Look. After those shots, we drove over to Ballard Locks towards the venue (The Canal). This location is familiar to me and it was a lot of fun taking their family pictures and seeing the couple work their magic in front of the camera.Looking back at these pictures, I recall how much fun I had. Seriously. The couple knew how to keep the day upbeat and laid back at the same time. Congratulations Donald and Yan! blog41_001 blog41_003 blog41_002 blog41_003_1 blog41_004 blog41_005 blog41_006 blog41_007 blog41_008 blog41_009 blog41_010 blog41_011 blog41_012 blog41_013 blog41_014 blog41_014_1 blog41_015 blog41_014_2 blog41_016 blog41_017 blog41_018 blog41_019 blog41_020 blog41_021 blog41_022 blog41_023 blog41_024 blog41_025 blog41_026 blog41_027 blog41_028 blog41_030 blog41_029 blog41_031 blog41_032 blog41_033 blog41_034 blog41_035 blog41_036 blog41_037 blog41_038 blog41_039 blog41_040 blog41_041 blog41_043 blog41_042 blog41_044 blog41_044_1 blog41_045 blog41_046 blog41_047 blog41_048 blog41_049 blog41_050 blog41_051 blog41_053 blog41_052 blog41_054 blog41_055 blog41_056 blog41_057 blog41_058 blog41_059 blog41_060 blog41_061 blog41_063 blog41_062 blog41_064 blog41_065 blog41_066 blog41_067 blog41_068 blog41_069 blog41_070 blog41_071 blog41_072 blog41_073 blog41_074 blog41_075 blog41_076 blog41_075_1 blog41_077 blog41_078 blog41_079 blog41_080 blog41_081 blog41_082 blog41_083 blog41_084 blog41_085 blog41_086 blog41_087 blog41_088 blog41_089 blog41_090 blog41_091 blog41_092 blog41_093 blog41_094-2 blog41_094_1 blog41_095 blog41_096 blog41_097 blog41_098 blog41_099 blog41_100 blog41_101_1 blog41_102 blog41_103 blog41_104 blog41_105 blog41_106 blog41_107 blog41_109 blog41_108 blog41_110 blog41_111 blog41_112 blog41_113 blog41_114 blog41_115 blog41_116 blog41_117 blog41_118 blog41_119 blog41_120 blog41_121 blog41_122 blog41_124 blog41_123 blog41_125 blog41_126 blog41_127 blog41_128 blog41_129 blog41_130 blog41_132 blog41_131 blog41_133 blog41_134 blog41_136 blog41_135 blog41_137 blog41_138 blog41_140 blog41_139 blog41_141 blog41_142_1 blog41_142_3 blog41_142_2 blog41_143 blog41_144 blog41_145 blog41_146 blog41_147 blog41_148 blog41_149 blog41_150 blog41_151
