I’ll be heading up to Seattle this weekend to photograph Mark & Dulce’s wedding at Newcastle. We met up last weekend to shoot some engagement photos downtown Seattle at Pike Place Market.

E-sessions are so rad! We shot this sesh right downtown Bellevue, just out side of Bellevue Place where Matt & Stephanie had their first date at a nearby restaurant. Apparently he was wearing his hottest outfit which included a sweet orange sweater… their second date was shopping for some new clothes for him!!! Yikes! Gabe and I are pumped for shooting their wedding out on Orcas Island this weekend!

Once again I’ve had the privilege of photographing a childhood friend’s wedding. And just to show how cool we were back in the day, check out this photo below of our crew. Yes… Matt’s the one with the weird pink puff ball at the top. Yours truly is the one with the sweet puffy flat top in the middle (that was my favorite shirt - it had a shark on it and a lot of neon green spots).

Looks like Matt’s grown up a bit since then…

Potato Head love… kudos to the groomsmen.

Their wedding was a gorgeous farm wedding surrounded by 750 acres of fields.

How many Rodriguez’s can you fit into the Ace Hotel Photobooth? (six apparently!)

Yikes! So our First Annual Company Picnic … a total success and we’re super stoked for 2009. Gabe, Ashley (+ the kids), Jacqi and I (Boone) spent the better half of last week kickin’ it at the Beach and then around NW Portland.

Besides exploring PDX, sippin’ on Stumptown and picnicking at the Rose Garden, we did manage to get in some awesome time brainstorming and refocusing on our five year plan to take over the world. We’re excited to divulge our new offerings for 2009, as well as introduce two new official members of our team … can you guess who by the pics? We’re working with some amazingly talented people to bring new products and services to the table. We’ll be rolling things out on the blog over the next few weeks. Please stay tuned.

Boone models the company t-shirt and shows off his new shiny white 3G.

Roman pretty much just has one little tuft of hair on the very top of his head.

Vacation is a time for growing a mustache.
