Marvelous Matrimony at the Golf club at Newcastle

I got to know Kim and Anthony at our snowy engagement shoot a few months before their wedding. Before their shoot we had never met, but we instantly bonded, and I credit them with introducing me to my fiance (through a roundabout way ;), so I will forever love these two!!

Their wedding was such a fine, elegant affair at one of my favorite wedding Venues, The Golf Club at Newcastle. As a Seattle Wedding Photographer, I’ve seen many stunning events, but this one was just off the charts. From Kim’s Haute Couture Galia Lahav gown and Jimmy Choo Shoes to Anthony’s sick Hugo Boss threads, gorgeous flowers by Flora Nova Design and don’t even get me started about the Cake by Honey Crumb Cake Studio. The event was luxuriously styled by Claire Nelson of Simply Tamara Nicole. The beautiful grounds at Newcastle never disappoint, and the clouds provided us with an EPIC once-in-a-lifetime stormy sunset session. I wish these two many bliss filled years ahead!

Some words from the Bride:

How we met:
We met through a dating app called Coffee Meets Bagel, our first date was at Revel in Fremont. We met for drinks and hit it off right away.

Proposal:
Anthony planned a surprise weekend get away for us, he told me that we were going away with a few of his friends so that I wouldn’t be suspicious. We ended up driving down to the Kenmore seaplane airport located in South Lake Union. We arrived about an hour prior to our flight, so he took me to walk around the waterfront and take in the views. Anthony had scouted out the perfect spot to propose with a photographer that he had hired to hide and capture everything. After we got engaged, we had a mini engagement photo shoot and then hopped on a seaplane to Friday Harbor. We spent the weekend celebrating together in Friday Harbor!

This was that once-in-a-lifetime sunset session I mentioned above. We went from dark, drizzle blues where we created our own warm light, to an explosive sun tearing through the clouds moments later! It only lasted a mere few seconds, but it was breathtaking and provided such a fun lighting challenge!
