Matt & Michelle in The Attic!

I have to say that we have been very fortunate with the couples we have photographed this summer. Andy Rogers and I photographed Matt & Michelle’s wedding at The Attic in Sumner. Sumner holds a special place for me, since it is the town where I grew up.  I added more good memories from my hometown having the opportunity to be with Matt & Michelle on their wedding day. They are the ideal couple to hang out with and photograph. They appreciate photography and were enthusiastic about going to different locations around the Attic to get images.  They also have a cool story. They were high school sweethearts back in the mid-eighties, broke up in high school, went their separate ways, then about 25 years later, reunited and married. A great couple, a lot of fun, and I know they are going to have a long and happy life together!
