Colorful Wedding at Gray Bridge

Another wonderful wedding at Gray Bridge with one of our favorite florists, Tenderheart Botanicals and coordinators, Grit City Weddings. We loved the lush floral arrangements with vibrant pops of color for this early fall wedding – it felt like being transported to the tropics!

I asked Jake and Courtney a few questions about their story:

How did the two of you meet?
We’re high school sweethearts! We met in marching band.

How did the proposal happen?
I (Jake) proposed at the top of Little Si, it was the first hike the two of us did in Washington.

Why did you choose this venue for your colorful wedding?
Enjoyed that it was fully outdoors, in the mountains (ish), wanted lots of natural greenery. Wanted to make sure there was plenty of nature featured in the photos!

If we were to run into you on a relaxed weekend, what would you be doing?
Hiking or drinking wine, maybe both?

Meet your photographers.

We’re Kate (she/her) and Josh (he/him). Married humans, emotional chaos wranglers, coffee worshippers, timeline nerds, Marvel fanatics, and occasional ugly criers at weddings. (Okay, maybe more than occasional. Look, vows get us. Every damn time.) Kate has been photographing since 1997 and Josh picked up the camera in 2011. We’ve done over 600 weddings together, including wedding coordination (sometimes we even get to do both at the same time!) 600+ weddings → “That’s 600 families who trusted us to be invisible magic and backup problem-solvers.” 14 years → “We’ve seen it all — and we know how to handle anything without making it your problem.” Coordination → Kate is also a certified coordinator which gives that extra boost for you during planning and on the day itself “We don’t just photograph your day — we keep it flowing, calm, and meaningful.”
