Reviews for Lifework Images
"We're astonished at how vividly we can relive our wedding through your photography, you truly captured the overwhelming love and emotion of that day.
We were just in Walla Walla last week and had so many memories of our wedding. It was great remembering how much fun we had and how wonderful it is that we have such great photos to look back on. I CAN NOT tell you enough how much we love our wedding photos."
The evening before their wedding, Matt and Mercy treated an intimate gathering of guests to a surprise overnight stay at the Sagecliffs at Cave B Inn, a three-hour drive from Seattle. Nestled in the center of its sprawling vineyard, Sagecliffs is perched above the Columbia River Gorge in central Washington State. At sunset, all toasted to the next day’s festivities.
The next morning everyone enjoyed a scenic drive through the rolling hills of the agricultural region of Washington and arrived at the historic Marcus Whitman Hotel in Walla Walla. A brief and heartfelt ceremony at the local District Courthouse was followed by two days of fine dining and wine tasting at some of the region’s best vineyards. The couple arranged a special tour of the prestigious Pepper Bridge Winery as a special treat for their guests.
Their mid-week wedding was truly a getaway to remember!

"The photos are beautiful. You guys did such an incredible job and were there to capture everything."
Brian and Andrea began their day with a romantic horse-drawn open carriage ride through Seattle’s historic Pioneer Square neighborhood and Occidental Park, ending under the impressive arched entrance of the Court in the Square.
Their cosmopolitan urban style wedding took place in a room filled with natural light pouring through the Court’s five-story glass-enclosed architecture. The emotional and spirit filled ceremony took place in front of the reflecting pond with gerbera daisies and floating candles adding to the dreamy atmosphere.
Immediately after the ceremony, the couple was whisked away to the rooftop for a private moment alone enjoying sunset with Seattle’s towering skyline as their private backdrop.
Rejoining their guests, the bride and groom enjoyed their reception mingling with guests and dancing around the Court’s historic glowing streetlamps.
Their wedding has been featured in Seattle Metropolitan Bride and Groom Magazine, Winter/Spring 2008 issue:
