This year took us around the U.S. to some of our favorite cities like Chicago, Nashville and Southern California. But we also produced some of our best work at home in the Pacific Northwest. It was also a year of experimentation. We want to thank our clients for letting us push the envelope to try new ways of seeing. Some ideas were complete failures and other discoveries we’ll take with us in the next few years. We also want to thank our clients for letting us hang out and party while making great memories both on and off camera. We were part of some strange and unusual moments…and enjoyed every minute.

Best,

BENJAMIN DiCAPRIO

A winter themed wedding. Jacki and Andy took this approach in their December 12th wedding in Seattle, Washington and we followed suit. We photographed their wedding in a style to fit the winter theme by focusing our color palette on warm and cold colors to evoke a soft winter tension which helped us produce a nice portfolio telling the story of their day.

Their day began at the Edgewater Hotel which has amazing views of the sound. The water literally comes right up to the hotel. From there the couple and bridal party rode in a stretch limousine to the Escala building in downtown Seattle. The Escala is a luxury high-rise with astounding views of the city. Not to mention a movie theater and Club Cielo located inside the building. They finished the day at Pravda Studios in Capitol Hill with family and friends. Here are some of our favorites.

Hillary and David share an affinity to the sea and especially to the shipping culture. They wanted their wedding to reflect that interest by holding the ceremony and reception near the historic vessels at South Lake Union at the Naval Reserve in Seattle. The wedding was held on Halloween and some guests came to the wedding in costumes including a pair of professional wrestlers who put on a quick wrestling match. It was unexpected and hilarious. The couple are now on their way to Nicaragua for the honeymoon. Best wishes!
