Wedding Date on Jun 8, 2019

Surrounded by the towering firs and pines of the Oregon forest, with albino peacocks and trickling brooks in the background, Andrea and Monirath’s wedding felt like something out of a dream. Monirath met Andrea when he was doing his medical fellowship in Oregon. They were introduced through mutual friends, although they both were dating others at the time. They would randomly keep in touch over the next three years on whims via text or social media, until something just clicked one day. After dating less than six months, Andrea moved to Seattle to be with Monirath’s family, helping care for his sick father. It was so emotional and beautiful to see his presence remembered throughout their day, and to see the strength and bond that those hard times created in their relationship. I felt so honored to capture this day for two such kind and genuine souls as Andrea and Monirath. Their story, and their hearts, are made up of the real good stuff.
