You’ll notice the Superman symbol a bunch in their images.  You see, not only did Molly marry her superhero, but their last name is Schultz and can you really think of a better font for their monogram then the Superman S?     The color theme for their wedding was black with accents of, well, all the colors of the rainbow.  I love this idea!  Everything from the cupcake tower to the shoes to the bouquets were brightly colored. 

I just love that we were there to capture these endearing moments between these two.  Like many, they’d decided to do an unveiling and it gave me goosebumps to watch these moments as they unfolded.

As close friends, we’d waited a very long time to witness the vows between Molly & Justin.   It’s a normal occurrence for us to get caught up in the emotions of a ceremony and this was no exception.  A beautiful day, a beautiful ceremony, absolutely perfect for our beautiful friends!

Usually we celebrate the brand new Mr. & Mrs. from behind our camera’s, capturing each moment as they unfold, but this evening, in addition to that, we joined in on the celebration!   It was a first to have John grab the mic and make a speech, a toast to the new Mr. & Mrs. Schultz!  I have to admit, I was a blubbering fool behind my camera!

As anticipated, the evening was full of fun, laughter and love.  Molly & Justin, congratulations to you both on your wedding and on finding your perfect mate!   We seriously couldn’t be any happier for the two of you.

I’d had the pleasure of emailing and visiting with Heather over the past few months, helping them with their time-line and with each visit and email I grew more and more excited for their wedding day to roll around.   We arrived at the University Temple United Methodist Church in Seattle, and saw a town car waiting at the front door.  It was Heather and some of her bridal party!  We snuck a peek at the beautiful bride before we were let in the church.

Casual and calm, all the ladies were getting ready and then it was time for Heather to put on her gown.  Every bride anxiously awaits to put on her gown on her wedding day, but this was not just any gown, this was special.  Made specifically for Heather, her mother put in many many hours into this dress, she had even sewn in a special tag.

There seemed to be even more anticipation and excitement as we headed for the unveiling.  See, Tyler just finished law school, which has had him living in an entirely different state than Heather for a long time now.  So, being witness to the first moments of their unveiling was almost like witnessing them see each other for the first time in months.  It was pretty sweet!

 
Just as we anticipated, the ceremony was beautiful and the reception was a blast!  It’s so apparent how much Heather & Tyler care for each other and how much love and support they have from friends and family.  That’s just awesome!  We are so grateful to have been a part of their journey & a part of their day.  Thank you Heather & Tyler for sharing your lives with us!  We truly enjoyed capturing each moment!  Congratulations to you both!

Their wedding was shot by our wonderfully talented senior associate, Steve Smith.  He met up with the bridal party at their hotel in Bellevue where the unveiling and portraits took place. 

 
Their reception site holds a place near to me and John.  In 2006, this is where we had our reception!   Sitting right on the banks of Renton’s Cedar River, this venue is a great blank canvas.  SO many possibilities and I think Katie & Blair did a great job with their decor! 

Steve shared with me what a great time he had and what a great time everyone seemed to have!  Thank you so much Katie & Blair for allowing JFK Studios to be a part of your journey!   We hope you enjoy these few teasers!  So many more awesome images are in your near future!!!

Fast forward to July 30th. The big day they had been waiting for. We walked up to the Edmonds Plaza Room, and were greeted by a beautiful bride making sure all of the final details of her reception were just so. It was so great to see her again and she looked so beautiful with her hair and make-up just perfectly so. Soon, it was time to head to the room for her to finish getting ready. I love these images of her reading a little note from her soon to be husband.

And a few more of the beautiful bride just before she was to meet her groom.

The room where she got ready was lit wonderfully by these beautiful windows. Of course, getting some details here was a must!

We were to shuttle the bride and groom in our car down to the ferry docks, for the unveiling. If you’re wondering how we managed to escort them both down to the docks in one car, with out him seeing her, well, look on…

We had a few minutes before the bridal party showed up so of course we took advantage of this time and captured these amazing shots!

Melissa & Kris share a love for wine (although I think it’s mostly Melissa) and so for their ceremony they decided to blend wine (instead of sand).  What a cool idea! 

Now husband and wife, they were free to interact with friends and family.  As the beautiful sun on the horizon, the reception was in full swing.   It’s apparent that everyone had a great time.  I know we did!

What an incredible day it was. Two wonderful people were married and a fabulous time was had by all! We are so grateful to have been witness to such a beautiful ceremony and are so happy to call you friends!

I spent a couple hours with two adorable little boys and their equally awesome parents!  Rhienn (the mommy) is owner of the fantastic Look Cupcake in Seattle!  I was privileged enough to have her make my daughter’s 1st birthday cake.  Not only was it the most amazing cake to look at, but it was so yummy!

Here are a couple shots of some of the most adorable boys ever!

Thanks Davis family for a great afternoon!  Your little ones are so well behaved!  I had a blast, hope you did too!
