On Saturday, August
4th, 2018, the KLJ Studios Photography Team gathered in Seattle, Washington for
the wedding of Helen and David. The wedding ceremony took place at 10:00AM at
Blessed Sacrament Church located at 5050 8th Ave NE, Seattle, Washington. The
Wedding Reception started at 11:00AM aboard a beautiful ship called the MV
Skansonia at 205 NE Northlake Way, 'A' Dock, in Seattle, Washington. The Lead
Photographer for the wedding was KLJ Studios Lead Photographer, Kelly Lynn
Jordan, and the KLJ Studios Second Shooter for the wedding was Bethany Petrik.
Helen and David
Helen, the bride,
plays piano, flute, and is an amazing singer; It was such a pleasure listening
to Helen sing hymns during the ceremony. One of David's talents is juggling.
Helen was the first to say, "I love you". Both David and Helen LOVE
the Smashing Pumpkins, and board games. David proposed to Helen on her
birthday, which is quite the birthday present.
How they Met
David and Helen met
on an online dating site. David was living in Portland with his brother Tom,
and at the time, Helen was in Canada. The two of them really hit it off, and
decided that they needed to meet each other in person. Their first date was in
Victoria, Canada (how romantic!!!). That night, after heading home from the
best date ever, Helen told her mother, "That is the man I'm going to
marry." These two are perfect together!
Ceremony
The wedding was a
traditional Catholic wedding. They honored the majority of Catholic traditions
throughout the ceremony. Our favorite part was when Helen sang. She has the
most beautiful voice, and it really gives one a sense of peace. Her singing
rang sweetly throughout the church and was a pleasure to hear.
Group Portraits
Helen has an amazing
family. They made it very easy to organize for group portraits. We saw some of
the most adorable children we have ever seen in our lives. Gregory just loved
playing peek-a-boo with Kelly Lynn which helped to get some really great smiling
portraits. The Linz family were pros at the group wedding portraits; they knew
exactly where to stand and what to do, and all fell into position without us
having to say anything or give any direction. It was truly a wedding miracle.
Reception
We loved this
reception, as the couple's dance instructor actually taught everyone to waltz
before the Bride and Groom did their first dance as husband and wife, and then
everybody was ready to join in dancing! The cake looked so pretty that nobody
wanted to cut it, but finally the couple decided that everyone there deserved
to have a piece, so after a bit of an emotional cake struggle, the cake was
cut, and the wedding party was served. Nobody would have blamed them if they
decided not to cut the cake, but we are glad they did as the cake was
delicious! Notably, the reception was on a boat, the MV Skansonia, in the
Seattle Harbor. It provided some amazing views of the Seattle Space Needle.
Thank you so much
David and Helen for choosing KLJ Studios to photograph your wedding day. We
can't wait for you to see your photos! They are perfect, just like the two of
you.
