Me Ra Koh Photography went to LA in early September for a speaking engagement, and then we did a photo shoot in Santa Monica the next day, and flew home that same night driving north to Bellingham for a very special wedding.
I know I feel this way after every wedding, but I love Monique and Jim’s Slideshow from their wedding! I think I’ve watched it 10 times in the last hour and even cried. 🙂 Monique is a friend of mine from the triathlon group in Tacoma, WA. She is actually our amazing coach, and she is beautiful in countless ways. Jim is her groom, and the way he adored her throughout their wedding was amazing. Simply put, I love the way Jim loves Monique. Below are some favorite shots, but you’ve got to see the slideshow! (make sure your volume is on for the music too! 🙂 And if you’re having trouble seeing the slideshow, click here for a free update of Flash.)

Jim makes Monique laugh non-stop and what more could you ask for in marriage? 🙂
A moment so tender, I felt invasive shooting it. But I’m so glad we caught it.
I love this shot that Brian caught. The angle and lines add so much to the creativity.
An old barn near the ceremony site was the perfect background. 🙂
Dad, Monique and mom during the ceremony.
Thirty minutes before the ceremony it was pouring down rain. It was looking like the outdoor wedding wouldn’t happen, but the sun broke through at the last minute. The sky was so moody throughout the ceremony. It almost felt fickle in how often it changed. Brian and I had a blast shooting the clouds rolling in, the sun breaking through, the darkness coming back. It gives me the chills just remembering it.
And the children were gorgeous!
Congrats you two! Brian and I are so happy for you both! Thank you for giving us the honor of shooting your wedding day!
Oh Me Ra & Brian,
I am loving the colors in these!
The colors look familier hmmm…
LOL! I cant wait to see you guys again!
Thank you; thank you, Me Ra and Brian! I can’t wait for the whole picture preview! Your slideshow captures so many emotions on each face that I mostly think of your work as TENDER. How you have used your eyes, technical abilities & equipment, as with the greatest of creative artists, is to not allow any of those components to appear used at all. The gift that you have given us is the tenderness of the broadest spectrum of emotions in the widest choice of people, visually captured. My daughter Monique was entirely right; you are the best.
I am so grateful to both of you!
Adrienne!
Your feedback is so amazing! Could a photographer ever ask for more? Thank you for taking the time to write all that you did! Brian and I had a WONDERFUL time with Monique and Jim. And frankly, Monique is so beautiful that it’s impossible to take a bad shot. 🙂
My name is Monique and I love a man named Jim! I hope that one day we can have beautiful wedding pictures like yours!

Have your cake and eat it kind of a dillema. What should today’s grooms do? Have a greatwedding or save for a home? I would choose the second any day
fighting over stats is pointless, not even experts agree on how to interpret them. i do believe the stimulus helped keep us out of a Depression—have you Cons already forgotten how much worse things were expected to get.
