The majority of the info is below. I will be offering these sessions because I want to help find a cure for and to stop breast cancer. Please contact me to schedule your session now!!!
Melissa & Jacob got lucky with an overcast, yet warm day. This location is best when there is little to no sun. They have some amazing hills with pretty flowers which we used, and a fun waterfall behind the ceremony site. This was a lively group. From Melissa’s adorable daughter, to the shots the guys partook of at the bar, to their first “group” dance song of Michael Jackson’s “Black or White.” LOL. It was a fun day. The only thing that went “wrong,” which we fixed after the ceremony, was they officiant forgot to do the sand-pouring portion of it. So they had their own mini-sand-pouring ceremony afterwards with just the wedding party!

Sophia and Jason got married on a wonderfully warm and sunny day in July at the Twin Lakes Golf & Country Club in Federal Way. I was super excited about this wedding, as I had met the couple a few months before for a quick “meeting” which turned into 3 hours of chatting! We headed out to Weyerhaesuser to get some nice shots in the grass (which was still there and not mowed away yet.) Both Jason & Sophia had lost family members recently, and the day was filled with loving memories, stories, and many happy tears. They even got me a few times… Have fun on your cruise!

This event hits close to home. My mom is currently a 10 year Stage I breast cancer survivor. My mother-in-law is a one year survivor.
What I have learned about breast cancer:
-It never really goes away
-It comes back in nasty forms, such as metastasizing in your bones
-Just because you have one cancer, doesn’t mean you can’t get another…
My mom has all of the above. What is worse than breast cancer though (if this is possible) is ovarian cancer. She recently got diagnosed with Stage IIIC and had to have a full hysterectomy just last month. The chances of this cancer coming back? 90%. Not good news. So now we start chemo… again.
If you are getting married or know someone who is, please buy a ticket to this event. Great deals are to be had there! In their words, Get Hitched Give Hope is:

Thank you so much for blogging about Get Hitched, Give Hope! Can’t wait to see you there…
We showed up just in the nick of time to capture the Jewish bread ceremony. I hadn’t seen my cousin Karen since my own wedding almost 4 years ago… It was great to see all the family again, and meet her new family. The Hart Ranch is an amazing place, as you can see.
