While we didn’t start a revolution, or ride 8 thousand miles across South America on a Motorcycle in hopes of experiencing the world…

we sure covered a lot of San Juan Island on our little mopeds. There were no lepers or social injustice on our ride, just beautiful landscapes and the wind in our hair.

Casey + I spent a weekend on San Juan Island last weekend. After photographing a wedding, we spent a little time enjoying the last bits of summer.

And if you haven’t seen The Motorcyle Diaries (my favorite movie OF ALL TIME!) Get out there and rent it!

“Let the world change you, and you can change the world.”

  • sean - amazing!

  • c money - Great shots, Sweets. Next time were renting the moped car.

  • Deann B. - Oh wow, Kim! These are beautiful!! You are making me so excited for my Seattle trip! :)

  • Heather - Beautiful pictures Kim! Looks like you guys had a great time too.

  • Jess - Love the Motorcycle Diaries, love your photos even more!

  • Kim - OH MAI! your landscape photos with that TSE are AMAzing! the ride looks like it was SO much fun! jealous!

  • Keri P. - Beautiful, I would love to hang a few of those awesome landscapes on my living room wall!

Me, by my husband. I hate being photographed. I look so serious. :)

Ocean Shores, WA.

  • Deann B. - My BF always tells me I look mean when I don’t smile in portraits. But this… this is lovely. That TS lens makes for great portraits and your B&W toning is fantastic. Maybe you should have your picture taken more often. ;)

  • claire - i know what you mean – i HATE having my picture taken too. BUT i think you actually look sort of like charlize theron in this photo, so maybe you should have your photo taken more often!

  • Heather - Lookin’ good Kim! Casey takes a nice picture.

  • c money - Its a fine photo of a fine woman. Thanks for a great whirlwind road trip.

  • Keri P. - Nice portrait!

One of the things I love most in this world is watching someone cut loose on the dance floor! Nothing compares to the joy that radiates from that dance floor when it’s full of people just having a blast. I love this about weddings! So this blog post goes out to all those crazy kids out there cutting a rug like there is no tomorrow.

[ And yes, that first photo is Grandma getting freaked by the groomsmen- priceless! ]

Get out there and dance!

  • Deann B. - This is awesome! I’ve found that getting good dance photos like these are some of the most difficult, but also very rewarding. I love it when I find a good one on my CF card… they always make me giggle. Great post topic!!!

  • Kim Seidl - amazing.. i wanted to pick one and make a comment but they’re all awesome. but yeah, gma.. love it.
