Heather + Jason: Art & Nature in Seattle
Heather and Jason both have ties to the Midwest, as do I!
Fun Fact: Heather and I both had our first jobs at a local pizzeria in Quincy, IL. Jason was born in Tulsa, Oklahoma but then went to school at Missouri State University--- where he met Heather! After he graduated they decided to move to Seattle together so he could pursue music and she would continue her studies there. She knew she didn't want to stay in Missouri, so why not?!
After I moved to Portland I noticed that Heather lived in Seattle so we decided to get together and have a wedding portrait session at Discovery Park in Seattle. Yes, this park is in Seattle!
“You have everything at your fingertips here in the Pacific Northwest. My husband goes hiking in a new location almost every weekend, some of the hikes keep getting further and further away because he’s already done the close ones! I personally love the artistic side of things. I have interned at the Pacific Northwest Ballet Nutcracker with a makeup artist, participated in the solstice parade (always painting myself in very intricate designs), and dressed up numerous times for the Emerald City Comicon. But I also love the outdoors because I grew up in a very rural town with nothing but lots of land to explore. ”
Heather & Jason's love for art and the outdoors definitely shows. She decorated the wooden box for her rings, created the moss covered "&" sign, and even her bouquet and his boutonniere! She also wanted to have purple heels to match her fun personality!
I'm so glad that Heather & Jason found their perfect match when they moved to Seattle!
I definitely know first hand the magic that the Pacific Northwest possesses.
Love & Light,
Amy Jo
