Lindsay & Brandon got married in Seattle, and one of the most delightful parts for me about the trip was having them show me around! They both know the city so well, and the day after the wedding, we went exploring and went EVERYWHERE. We pretty much hit every major tourist point in Seattle in a matter of hours. It was a blast! We started out at Gasworks Park, which I loved:

Then on to Pike Place Market (where Linds & I picked out her flowers the day before the wedding)

One of my favorite shots of the day at the fish throwers' booth:

Under / behind the market is the Gum Wall. It's a huge wall that's been ENTIRELY covered with gum. It's a quarter gross and three quarters awesome:

Wandering around the artsy Fremont neighborhood...

And I'll end with what I think is my favorite shot of the day. This amazing scene was in front of a bank of parking meters:

Thanks to the most amazing tour guides ever! Love you both :)

Words cannot describe this day (but of course I'm going to make a lame attempt anyway). Lindsay is an old friend and a beautiful woman straight out of old Hollywood, and she married one of the kindest, most sincere people I've ever met. I was so excited to fly to Seattle to shoot their wedding because it meant A) a week with them B) a week with old friends from high school and C) two very knowledgeable tour guides - Brandon is a local and met Lindsay when they were in college together at Seattle Pacific. Not only was everything absolutely lovely, but Lindsay is a serious DIY queen and pulled this whole thing off in a few short months and, seemingly, without being stressed at all. And Wild Rose is an incredible venue!This whole day was full of beauty.

A quick stop at Taco Time after the hair appointment :)

Aren't these flowers AMAZING? Fun story : we went to Pike Place Market with buckets the day before the wedding and picked everything out. Her bridesmaids and assorted friends helped put together the bouquets (let me repeat that - the DAY BEFORE. How awesome is that?)

Lindsay is a librarian, and our good friend Chris (who was a "brides-man") makes the most fabulous wedding cakes. It was a match made in heaven :) The cake table was unreal! And yes, that is a gigantic cupcake-shaped cake.
