Ready For Your Close-up?

Growing up, I was fortunate to have parents who had a passion for boating.  When I was young we were always on the water taking many trips up to the San Juans.  As the years went by and I went off to school and started my career, the memories of those trips began to fade.  When I headed out to Roche Harbor for Nikki and Paul’s wedding, I had no idea how quickly and vividly the memories of this place would rush back.  Nikki had been brought here by her parents over the years, and one of the great moments of the day was when her father told the story of how as a young girl she once casually stated “one day I am going to get married here in the Rose Garden.”  While I’m not quite sure if my family and I had been on Roche at that same moment many years ago, I’m sure glad I was there on this day.

Have I ever mentioned that The Golf Club at Newcastle is one of my favorite venues? Is it because it’s the closest venue to my home? Not really, (but convenient). The spectacular sweeping views and magical sunsets? Perhaps. Maybe it’s because I’m a golf nut and can’t help but to longingly glaze over at the sight of perfectly manicured fairways. After watching Mary & Sam’s highlight, I think you’ll understand… how can you not love this place?

A&J created a truly unique wedding day. So much thought went into every single detail. I kept turning my camera and seeing new things throughout the day. What was a constant, however, were the warm smiles on each of their faces from the moment I arrived to the second I left. I hope you’re smiling by the end of this excerpt from their highlights:
