Well, it’s happened! Washington State officially allows same sex couples to marry as of December 6, 2012!!

I had the great fortune of being asked by the editors at Seattle Gay News to photograph some of the “formal” portraits at Seattle City Hall on December 9th, the first day couples would be allowed to be married after applying for the license on December 6. What a wonderful day filled with love by couples from ALL walks, races and statuses.

I love my job!

Nothing like a simple military wedding! Had a wonderful day hanging out with Kulleen and Conrad at Joint Base Lewis McCord (JBLM)!! My first time going to an officers club.

Same Sex Wedding Raffle

RL_Wood — Wed, 01 Feb 2012 18:12:50 +0000

UPDATE: Winners are…. PAUL & ERIC! Congratulations gentlemen!!!!

On February 1, 2012 the Washington State Senate will be voting on Marriage Equality in the State of Washington which would allow same sex couples full access to the legal system of civil marriage. Although the bill passage may be challenged after the vote by referendum, it’s highly likely to still pass a statewide vote of the citizens. With that said, kapchur.us photography will be raffling off a wedding photo package for ONE very lucky same sex couple. The drawing will be held on April 1.

So, what IS part of this package??? This package would include, an amazing 2 hour engagement shoot with a bottle of champagne to enhance the mood, and for the wedding day, a full day with two photographers (each photographer documenting the earlier prep for each of the two wedding participants), up to 15 hours of shooting in one day. We’ll then edit the photos, post the “best of the best” on Facebook for your friends and family (usually with 48 hours), then we’ll create a SmugMug gallery where you, your friends and family can order physical prints. We’ll also burn a set of the photos on DVD.

We would like to be able to use the photos taken during the winning ceremony as promotional material as well. Much more information on our wedding packages on our website: http://kaphcur.us/pricing

More details to be fleshed out with winning participants!

Travel expenses would need to be agreed upon if the wedding venue is 50 miles outside of Seattle. If you live outside of Washington State, but would like to come to WA to get married feel free to enter! WA State Citizens interested in a destination wedding outside of WA (same sex of course for the purposes of this raffle) need only pay for agreed upon travel expenses!

Questions or inquiries can be submitted on our website using the Contact Us form at the top of the page.

We CANNOT wait to share this special day with you! You’ll look amazing and we’ll capture the love and commitment you’ve shared for so long, that now FINALLY will be come legally recognized in the State of Washington, an historic moment for all of us!

Jeweled Bouquets… OMG – Why have I never seen these before?

RL_Wood — Thu, 13 Oct 2011 01:14:26 +0000

Just recently a wedding client brought Jeweled Bouquets to my attention. I’d never seen them, nor heard of them before (such a guy thing to say), but I’m in LOVE! They are AMAZING! So, after doing some searching around I found this one site on Etsy that hand makes them (not sure anyone is pumping these babies out of a factory yet)… and it seems to me that they are quite reasonably priced!

Hope you enjoy them as much as I do! (Click on the image below for more like it at Noaki Jewelry of Los Angeles, CA)

Such a spectacular piece!
