Michelle and Alex have been married for over two years and inquired about an "engagement shoot for married couples" last fall. I love the idea of getting great photos taken of you and your honey long after you've said your I Do's. It's a great time to get
photos of you and your spouse for your living room, your family or even your facebook page! It was so great bonding with Alex and Michelle over our hometown of Ann Arbor Michigan! Go Blue! Alex and Michelle practice Kung Fu and ended the session with some beautiful forms. Michelle also manages Oblation, the amazing invite shop and paper boutique in the Pearl, which I highly recommend for save the dates or wedding invites! I also want to thank Chris Jernigan for assisting me! Hope you love the sneak peek Alex and Michelle!
About a month after Sarah and Luke's incredible and intimate wedding in the pristine Washington mountains, they planned a reception in the great city of St. Louis, their hometown. All their family and friends greeted them Seattle Style! The reception at the Deer Creek Club was a blast with creative and fun references everywhere! Starbuck Coffee bags and The Seattle Times doubled as vases for the fresh flowers brought from Pike Place Market, rainboots acted as a holder for their guest sign-in pens, and hat umbrellas as party favors! Sarah and Luke are such cool people and their families are a ton of fun! Erica and I had the honor of traveling to photograph their stellar party and we also got a chance to hang out in this cool city with my friends, Kelda and Michael, whose wedding I photographed back in 2007! Love it:)
Oh my gosh! I LOVE this wedding!! So many fun ideas... this needs to be put in a magazine... This made rain look fun and I must have a coffe asap! :)

I love these photos Jessica! And I agree - why shouldn't we be photographed after we're married? Keep up the good work!
(03.27.09)Great shots, Jessica. We loved working with you -- you are great. And yes, I definitely recommend that married people get photos taken a few (or many) years in. Alex and I had so much fun and talked about our shoot for days afterwards. (The crazy guy, the mud, the cold, the kissing in public:) I can't wait to see all the rest!
