Fircrest Golf Club

28

Amanda and Brian’s Fircrest Golf Club wedding took place on May 29, 2021. I just had to look that up and my gosh it does not feel like that long ago.

We started the day at Amanda’s aunts house for getting ready photos. From there, we had a beautiful Catholic wedding ceremony at St. Patrick’s Church in Tacoma, Washington. It was my second Catholic wedding ceremony at this chapel and WOW! I will jump at the chance to document a wedding at this chapel any day. I love the classic traditional feel of this gorgeous building. Whereas I love my profoto Speedlight’s, the opportunity and challenge to document a wedding ceremony with no flash in an old chapel is just fun. Especially with the use of their balcony.

After the ceremony, we party bussed to Point Defiance Park for couples & bridal party photos. From there, it was straight to Fircrest Golf Club for the massive party they had all been waiting for!

Dancing was so fun and the perfect conditions for “dragging the shutter”. Take a look at the reception photos to see what I’m talking about. It’s a really fun technique to portray motion but it only works when there is a lot of it. This crew loved to dance!

Congratulations, Amanda & Brian! Clynn and I loved documenting your big day.

We have to get a little creative here with our PNW Photojournalism. One of the first things you learn as a new natural light photographer is how incredible a big window can make any room look. A tiny corner in the most unassuming place, if sitting close to a window can produce the most magical […]

Tonight, I took the boys to the Everett Haunted Harbor community event! Everyone putting it on was so sweet and we all had a blast! Thank you to all the boat volunteers! We started with trick or treating at the boats, watching witches paddle board around the harbor, petting all the neighbor dogs, and watched […]

Hey, Mommas. Take a look at your babies now. Go ahead. Just take a quick peek. They grow. Today was a bit exhausting, wasn’t it? There were moments of things never being quite perfect. You tried your best and showed up in every way you could possibly think to and still, you fell short in […]
