The Ultimate Staycation | The W Hotel | Seattle, WA

The Ultimate Staycation | The W Hotel | Seattle, WA

One thing I strive to do, is to tell humans that its okay to love yourself. Loving yourself can be defined in so many ways and if your love language is “ADVENTURE” like mine, then this might be the post you needed to see today.

And with Valentines day around the corner give yourself a little love and this might speak to your heart….

One of the best ways to love yourself is to take yourself on a mini vacation. Vacation however does not have to mean jet setting and needing to power through Sea-Tac airport to try and leave the Seattle traffic. Because you can make a vacation into a stay-cation. AND have it be just as epic as you need. Fill that cup up with as much staycation vibes as you possibly need.

Ever wonder how people decide what kind of wedding cake they want? Well here is one of my favorite lists. WEDDING CAKE! (and not just cake).

Over the years I have seen various types of dessert in place of wedding cake, as well as regular wedding cakes decorated to perfection. So I have compiled a list of my favorite wedding “cake” inspiration from my photo repertoire here at Andrea Michelle Weddings.

DIY Backyard Weddings | Wedding Photography | Seattle, WA and Beyond

Recently (probably because of the pandemic) there has been an increase in backyard weddings and elopements at Airbnb’s or Family or friends property. And you know what? I love it! Over the last year and a half, almost every single wedding I have shot has been at one of these private locations. These kinds of weddings are very often DIY, do-it-yourself. I have been more than impressed with these weddings by how they have created dreamy settings and decor that looks 100% professional.
