A Backyard Wedding in Seattle, WA | Jessica & Ryan

September 28, 2011

Seattle. The Market and the Space Needle. The North Pacific and the Mountains. Starbucks Coffee and Grey’s Anatomy… At some point, we are all familiar with the city. And even if it was my first visit to the State of Washington, I had already met Jessica and Ryan in the past. It was last year when I photographed one of their friend’s wedding in South of France (Provence). I was very thrilled when they got in touch with me a few months later. The entire wedding took place at the same location. A magnificent house on top of the hill overlooking the forest with the mountains in the background. A bluegrass band was playing during the cocktail and as a banjo lover, it completely made my day!! There was a very casual atmosphere throughout the day. Jessica and Ryan are both very laid-back and it was so great to photograph in such a stress-free environment. The reception was an intimate candlelit dinner in the backyard — as perfect as “life under the stars” can be…
