Tamara and Jason in Olympia

I realized we've been so caught up lately in talking about our personal projects and business news that it's been a while since we've posted any wedding shots! So we're now taking the opportunity to get back on track by sharing some of our favorites from Jason and Tamara's ceremony at the Washington State Capitol in Olympia.

Because of the Capitol's high domed ceiling and marble everywhere, it's actually a pretty tough place to shoot! Fortunately, with our top-of-the-line Canon 1D Mark IIIs, we were able to deal with the low light without having to rely on a lot of flash, which causes glare off the marble and can seriously mess up your exposure. If you're getting married at the Capitol, I definitely recommend that you make sure your photographer has good equipment and knows how to overcome these challenges! Ask to see samples of wedding photos he or she took inside the Capitol before you hand over your deposit.

Tamara and Jason ended the night at one of our favorite Olympia venues, The Heritage Room, which is operated by the very excellent caterers and staff at Occasions Catering. To Jason and Tamara and all your lively friends, thanks for making it so much fun to photograph your wedding!
