DRE & LAURA / FOUR YEARS LATER

Four years après wedding, Andry & Laura squeezed back into their wedding attire for an evening of portraits. And fit beautifully they did. They looked simply stunning as the sun set in Discovery Park on their fourth wedding anniversary.

Their love story is beautiful. And evident in their every interaction. Katherine & I were blessed listening to their story of immigrating from Indonesia and meeting in Seattle, of their enduring courtship, of their first four years of marriage, and of their little Ava.

Andry is one half of Lifebox Studio and the couple also own the Indo Cafe in Northgate, where I plan to go soon to compare their nasi dishes to my mom's (Dutch & Indonesian cuisine have a colonial history).

KATHERINE / PREGGERS / 24MM

Katherine & I have a been enjoying our lakeside evening walks (when the rain stays away, at least) from our flat to Madrona Park and beyond. Too often I walk without my camera, which while keeping me conversationally focused, has me neglect perfect opportunities to photograph my wife in nature. Katherine's been having random, creepy strangers asking to take photographs of her & the belly (she has politely declined) ... so it's about time that I took advantage of this short-term pregger-window. Here's a few from earlier this week - I'll hopefully continue to take more. While I don't typically use the wide-angle 24mm lens for individual portraits, I felt it appropriate with the baby bump. Perhaps?

RAINBOW / SEATTLE

Minutes ago. Rainbow stretching from Bellevue to the I-90. Leschi Marina in foreground. A hop, skip, and jump from our apartment.
