Non-Traditional Wedding Parties  & Miss-Matchy Bridal Party Outfits As an Olympic National Park and Seattle wedding photographer, a trend I’ve been loving in the last couple years of weddings is having attendants of both genders mixed throughout the bridal party! In addition to bridesmaids, I’ve seen brides-men and men-of-honor, and grooms-maids in addition to groomsmen! […]

Last week I blogged the first part of Stephanie & Theo’s colorful Hall at Fauntleroy wedding in West Seattle.

Stephanie used the theme of […]
