I'm so glad to have been able to meet up with Shaina & Jon for their engagement session last week. Just as I was flying back into Seattle from my trip to see Nana Banana (next post), Shaina & Jon were flying out to head back home to Los Angeles. They were up visiting family and working on some details for their big day this August. We hung out at Gasworks Park for awhile and then headed up to the Arboretum for some fun on the walking bridge. We had some good laughs and I'm thrilled to have gotten connected with them! Here are a few of my faves...

Elise is just pure cuteness and after meeting her mom and dad, I totally see where she gets it from. Their home in West Seattle is lovely and filled with natural light - LOVE! We hung out in Elise's room and their sweet pup Cooper came sprinting up for a quick visit - check out the balancing act! I loved getting to spend an afternoon with this wonderful family & can't wait to do it again!

If you haven't already seen Mike & Serena's first post, scroll below to see their sweet ceremony on New Year's morning. A few hours after their brunch ended, I met Serena & Mike in their suite at The Sorrento Hotel to capture them hanging out with friends and getting ready for their reception party up at Uptown Hideaway later that night. The boys hung out in the main room while the ladies dolled it up in the bedroom. Mike got his 'first look' as Serena came out of the bathroom and his facial expression said it was totally 'worth the wait'. After a few leaps on the bed, we headed up to Uptown Hideaway for their cocktail (including two drink creations from the bride & groom) party. The speeches were really touching, I fell in love with the goat cheese & red pepper swirls and the cupcake arrangement was made by the women of Serena's book club, The Audacity of Book Club (how sweet is that?!) It was a wonderful night and an extremely awesomesauce way to start out the new year. I really hope to know this couple for many years to come!
I love catching 'bootie squeezes' in the mirror!
this last shot is a fave - i love the couple on the left...

love the effects of the christmas lights and how they add sparkle to the wedding--not like the needed any more sparkle at this wedding :)

(01.25.10 @ 10:53 PM)Thanks Jenny! These look so great. Thanks for making it such a fun day for Jon and me. So glad we took photos w/the jacket and on the bridge, they are some of my favorites.
(01.26.10 @ 11:30 AM)These came out even better than I thought they would, Jenny. I love the one of us through the branches. I'm excited to see the rest, and can't wait to see you again at our wedding!
