Surrounded by family and friends, Carlee + Doug were married July 29th, 2017 in Seattle, WA. Classic, beautiful, chic... the wedding was everything you dreamed (or I dreamed) of as a girl.

They've known each other since they were young, talking for hours on the phone in high school, running with the same crowd, even to this day;it truly is a love story for the books.

And that dress?!? That DRESS people. I swear it was made for Carlee, and the romantic ball gown vibe turned sassy silhouette was the perfect addition to their gorgeous, yet FUN day.

By the end of the night, I was hugging guests and my face hurt so much from smiling - it was the perfect wedding to send these two into a new chapter of their life and I'm grateful to have been a part of it.

Thank to Patricia Rae Photography for shooting with me!

Witnessing your best friend tie the knot is very special. When she and her fiancé happen to be extremely chic and plan a city elopement + beach reception, it's admittedly, even better.

Jillian and Jeff live in San Luis Obispo, but are both from Washington state. Deciding to meet in middle, they created the most lovely Oregon Coast reception for their family and friends.

We started their day at Knot Springs in Portland and it was the most genius move ever. What's more relaxing then being with your love in those gorgeous light-filled pools?? If anyone's ever made a case for eloping, it's these two.

A Portland courthouse ceremony, camping, delicious tacos and Salt & Straw ice cream.. could you plan a better week?!

Get ready for photo overload!!!!

And thank you to J + J for allowing us to tag along all week; we love you dearly.

xoxo,
