Novelty Hill Januik Winery was the perfect setting for Miko and Lance’s wedding. A mix of elegance, modernism, and color in both the venue and the menu. I would recommend this wedding location as one of my top picks for nearly anyone. The setting can be changed dramatically by chosen details. From casual to elegant, low key reception to ruckus dance party. It’s possible those who seek formal and/or classic will prefer the gorgeous Fairmont Olympic Hotel.

Otherwise, I love this dramatic location with it’s inside/outside flexibility, access to a large dressing suite with huge windows for natural light, enormous doorways, contemporary architecture (which my architect husband has me fully appreciating), geographic landscaping, colorful fixtures… Go see it yourself and enjoy a picnic on the grounds or take a bottle or a few cases of local wine home with you. Cheers.

  • Emily Pollock - Thanks for sharing these beautiful photos and for the wonderful review! 🙂 Miko and Lance were so wonderful to work with and we are thrilled to have such an amazing photo record of their big day.

    Can’t wait to have you back to the winery again soon!ReplyCancel

How successful a photo session is depends on teamwork. For me that means having clients who either can articulate their passions and visions or trust me to represent them. This project belongs to all of us. It is not unusual to feel a satisfying hum after a session that leaves us each happily coasting through the rest of the day enjoying how luck has struck our lives. Allie and Josh increase and enhance my lucky days.
An absolute ball to photograph, Allie and Josh and I connected from the first moment we met (at the Seattle Wedding Show), and have been a team ever since. We listen to each others ideas then improve on them, back and forth like enthusiastic artists on a mission for an experience and image creation to be told, shared and revisited into posterity.
Rather than take control of the engagement session, or the wedding for that matter, each of us planned to the best of our ability, then we were even more satisfied as nuances from outside influences presented themselves.
I’m so happy to have met these two, and to have the honor of meeting the two families, witnessing where grace originated.
Josh and Ellie, thank you for inviting me to be a part of your extraordinary life!
