Kitsap Memorial State Park Fijian + Western Wedding | Seattle Wedding Photographer

Naomi & Geoff had such an incredible wedding. When she described the Fijian traditional elements that would be a part of their day I was fascinated and super excited to be able to capture it! The music, dancing and soul of this day was just beyond anything.

I knew we had a special connection from the get-go. I remember our FaceTime call right when we first met to talk about their wedding. My son was maybe six months old and sleep was — well — difficult. Even though I scheduled our call for the evening, he woke up and SCREAMED. I could either end it or grab him and bounce him around as we chatted. Not only did Naomi + Geoff totally roll with it, but they thought it was hilarious and pretty special. And for that, I thought they were amazingly special.

We did their engagement session (first seen here) out in the Cascades and got a chance to spend time together in one of the most beautiful parts of the world on a beautiful night. I’ll never forget it.

The wedding day was just incredible. If you’re planning a wedding there, make sure to take advantage of the incredible old growth trees for your ceremony area. The only decor they really had was two floral arrangements — the trees did the rest of the talking! Something else to think about it that when you have a wedding that requires ferry travel, make sure to think about accommodations! Naomi and Geoff had reserved a big block of campsites so people could really immerse in the PNW setting (and not have to drive anywhere).
