Andrea and Matthias got married in the beautiful Methow Valley in northeastern Washington and we had the privilege of sharing the weekend with them.  The couple, their families, and a group of their closest friends spent the weekend horseback riding, mountain biking (ahem, wrecking), and enjoying the beautiful views from Sun Mountain Lodge.  Their ceremony was on a beautiful lawn overlooking the valley and the setting sun.  The area abounds with natural beauty and reminds you a bit of days gone by.  Andrea included that feel in the details she chose for the wedding including vintage handkerchiefs, antique blue canning jars, and home-made caramels as favors.  It was such a pleasure to be included in this intimate group.  Thank you so much Andrea and Matthias and congratulations!

The Sidari family had me come over to their beautiful home for some backyard family photos in the setting sun.  It was the perfect place for their little kids to roll around in the grass and play with their dog, Crash.  Their littlest was full of energy and has such a cute, spunky little personality.  And their daughter, well she couldn’t be more beautiful.  She happens to be the same age as my son Dylan and they have been in the same class at school for two years in a row now.  Last year Dylan was a little smitten with her in a kindergarten type of way, and you’ll understand why!

The kids did so well with the pictures that they got to have a popsicle as a treat, which made for some cute pictures as well.

Thanks Sidari family!

The Sidaris are also celebrating their 10 year anniversary this month so we got a couple shots of Claire in her wedding dress.  Isn’t she stunning?!  Happy Anniversary you guys!
