I knew way before our plane touched down in Sitka that I was going to love it there. The tiny islands and massive trees are exactly the kind of beauty that I could seriously settle down in. There is something ultra-relaxing about that place, while simultaneously being full of adventure. Nic & Steph decided not too long ago that Sitka is the place for them. They sold most of their belongings, packed up their sweet pup and drove to Alaska and then eventually arrived in Sitka where they have put down roots and made their home. It takes some gumption to make that happen you guys…cross country moves and figuring out new jobs and homes is no joke! They do have the benefit of Stephanie’s wonderful Sister & Brother in Law living there, and I came away more than a little jealous of these two sisters who live next door to each other. (Maybe someday my sister will move to Alaska and make all of my dreams come true…Kristen if you’re reading this, that’s a serious hint!)

I probably came across a little TOO eager about their wedding when I first heard from Stephanie as I had been dying to shoot more weddings in Southeast Alaska. Nic & Steph, I’m so thankful to you for allowing me to be the one to capture your amazing Sitka wedding day alongside your wonderful friends and family. I hope my photos do justice to its beauty!
Nic & Stephanie’s reception was held at the Channel Club in Sitka. I can’t say enough about restaurant weddings, you guys. The food is always amazing and it can be such a great setting for an intimate reception. I have been waiting for people to start snatching up some of our beautiful new Anchorage restaurants for their weddings…Williwaw, South, Rustic Goat…think about it, and then call me!!
