Sera & Ryan // Melrose Market Studios // Seattle, WA
These two love each other, sci fi, thrash metal, vintage 45′s, Stumptown Coffee Roasters, and Paris.
On Sera’s birthday Ryan dropped to his knees and asked her to marry him on stage at a karokee bar.
He was wearing a mullet wig, skin tight spandex, and a hot pink mesh top.
She said yes, and this magical day happened.
Can’t thank you two for having me there to document all the fist pumps, first dances, and whiskey shots. Simply put: I adore you guys.

Wow. These are stunning. The first pic of the b&g dancing is magnificent. Your style is enviable, to say the least. Excellent work!
really gorgeous! so many little moments that you captured to tell their story. I’m starting to think Seattle has the coolest weddings in the country.
So pretty. Sooooo, so pretty, Chantal, SERIOUSLY I don’t know how you do it! Eh hem, I have a secret (!): your work ALWAYS ends up open in one of my browser tabs for like, a week after I first see it, that’s how much I love looking at it…this wedding is no exception! Imma be looking at this again!
Looks like such an amazing wedding to photograph! Love your processing!
The shot of the guy shaving is my favorite! 
Excellent storytelling. Well done.
Gorgeous story Chantal.
What a fun wedding, great job!
Wow. I really enjoyed looking through all of these – amazing work.
The only thing missing from this amazing coverage is the pink mesh proposal ensemble. Fantastic!
Beautiful wedding. These photos scream intimate and fun.
Holy epic wedding. Seriously. I want to be at that wedding right now after seeing all your images. You can really feel the emotion and the love and the connection they all had with each other. Awesome!
Holy smokes that’s a huge wedding collection! What an amazing production. Especially the ones at the beginning in the apartment.
Wow your photos are amazing! I’m in awe!!!
I love your night shots and can only dream of getting this when I use a speedlight! Can I ask what settings you use for night time to achieve properly exposed people but have the moving lights in the background?
These are AMAZING! Wow you captured the mood so well, everything looks sooo northwest. I love it. I want to live in them.
Amazing wedding, you really captured it and told their story beautifully!
