Photos: Holly and Tony get married

My work, Still photography, Weddings

Holly and Tony got married in August at the Doe Bay Resort on Orcas Island, a venue I would highly recommend. Any place that cooks from their own organic veggie garden and has a clothing optional spa is fine by me. The location right on the calm waters of the aptly named Doe Bay, in the San Juan Islands, doesn’t hurt either. The deer poop everywhere can become a nuisance, but it is a small price to pay. I had a really good time out there photographing Holly and Tony as a second shooter for friend and colleague Theo Stroomer. You’ll see below that I was with the groomsmen before the wedding and spent the rest of the day covering all angles of the wedding alongside Theo. Holly and Tony were a pleasure to work with and their relationship is inspiring.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Wedding Photos Sneak Peek: Hiley and Tyler

My work, Still photography, Travel, Weddings

I’ve known Tyler since middle school and was honored to be documenting the day he and Hiley were married. Here’s a sneak peek of their wedding photos, including a few scanned polaroids at the end. They were married on the farm of Hiley’s parents near Okanogan, Washington surrounded by goats, chickens, and longtime friends (many of them my own friends as well). The seating for guests even consisted of bales of hay topped with burlap. The ceremony and celebration that followed couldn’t have been better. Have fun in Hawaii you two and I’ll see you after the honeymoon.
