yeah, that looks super cool, but really? I came up with my name in a silly way.
We were driving down the road, heading into Spokane in 1992 i think? maybe 1991.
I look to the right, and a car was passing us. The name on the car was the "Mercury Mystique" I think..... Mystique....mystique... yeah... that is cool.
It stuck. :) It was the only name i could keep in my head.. ha ha. So, Mystique it was.
Me. Artsy fartsy person. Love to draw and landscape- create things.
Leaves the last bite for my kids. Always. Wake up way to early. Go to sleep way to late. Have over 3K songs on my computer. Take in small animals and lost people. A geek. Hates long fingernails. Takes time to stop and smell the roses. Walks to fast. Doesn't watch television. Loves to pull weeds. Sucks at typing. Thinks Blue October is amazing. Drives to fast. Thinks my kids are the coolest people in the world. Takes pictures of maternity, families, weddings, seniors, and random weird things.
I'm a self taught photographer (painter of light and emotion)since 1992-ish. Photography was the culmination of many interests all of course in the art world. I've been published many times, drawing as well as photography. People leaving comments tickles me.
Loves making pictures, Especially yours.
Kelsey is a concert violinist, amazing talent and dedication. Shes also a long distance runner… wow. just wow. I really wanted to do something cool for her, something different. So, in true Mystique fashion, here’s what we came up with.

Chelsea and Corey got married at St Marks Luthern church on the south hill, and their reception was at the newly renovated Lincoln Center. It was lovely! Scott with keen music provided the music, and i must say, he was a pleasure to work with.
Chelsea and Corey had known eachother a very long time, their mothers are best friends! How cool is that! Their day could not have been any more beautiful, the weather actually was lovely. We had had rain and wind the week before, but as i jokingly asked Corey, “hey do you have a in with someone or what, it’s gorgeous today!” He smiled at me and nodded.
We were able to run down to Manito park and do a bunch of picks for them there in the gardens, it was so pretty!! It’s great when we have a hour or two just alone with the bride and groom to be able to go off and do some really cool “mini” photoshoot’s of them alone.
Anyways, here’s your Sneak peek of your wedding day! Thank you again for sharing one of the most important days you will have with Amber and myself here at Mystique Photography.
