WEDDING: Seattle: Nicole and Kevin

I've come to realize that New Years Eve weddings always tend to be a party to remember. Nicole and Kevin definitely solidified that theory yet again.  Well having met these two for our initial visit I could tell that this was going to be a party to remember.  

The cake alone was the biggest cake I have seen personally at a wedding. Seven tiers for five different delicious flavors from Starry Nights Catering.  SO good. Plus it was at the Liberty Theater in Puyallup which makes for a fun festive place for a wedding. At midnight they dropped hundreds of balloons from the ceiling. 

WEDDING: Seattle:Katherine and Demetre

Katherine and Demetre was a wedding I shot December 08 at The W Hotel and St. Demetrios Church here in Seattle.  They requested just real straight forward candid shots and barely any posed shots except for a handful of group shots. Katherine mentioned that she wasn't to fond of getting her photo taken but I think she warmed up to me ;) hahah.

Those greeks know how to have a good time that's for sure. Probably about half the photos I took were of people dancing and having a great time doing their traditional Greek dances.

DList Magazine: February '09 Issue

Well this February issue of DList Magazine was fairly simple for me. The cover ended up being a promo shot from the band that was already taken and the restaurant we reviewed had everything shot already. SO, I had that much more time to focus on the fashion spread. We had the great pleasure of having two gorgeous models. First off Jenascia Chakos from Americas Next Top Model season 2. This was the first shoot she has really done since the show and she seemed like she had never stopped doing it.  And our second model was a total life saver since the first model bailed on us the night before. Mariya Nabilskaya totally came through and filled in the spot even better then the original model would have. So it was really a blessing in the long run. 

DList Magazine: January '09 Issue "Seattle Mist"

For the first issue of '09 we thought we would feature some "NEW" things for the new year.

First off the new Lingerie Football League "Seattle Mist" is on our cover as well some shots and interviews of the girls for the "Distinct"section.

Secondly our fashion spread is "Out with the old & In with the new" and we had the great privilege of photographing the spread inside the original Rainier brewery in Georgetown. It is around 100 years old and has remained vacant for about 60 years. I am sure you can easily see why I was so eager to photograph this shoot at this specific location. 

And I want to thank Sabey Corporation for allowing us to shoot in there.
