Back in September, I met up with Brandi Potter at her Oregon Coast workshop! As part of the workshop, she had a couple available for us to photograph and these foggy sunrise engagement portraits wound up being some of my favorites that we captured that weekend! Sunrise engagement portraits are a secret favorite of mine. […]

The light for this Gas Works Park engagement session was so soft and perfect! This light is why we get up early people!! The skyline seems almost like a watercolor painting in the background because of how soft the light is. I can’t get enough of it and am dying to have another sunrise session […]

When I say that I love Seattle parks, I LOVE Seattle parks! This Discovery Park engagement session is just another reminder of how lucky I feel to live in Seattle with access to these beautiful spots!

Driving to Bagley Lake Loop for this Mount Baker Engagement session was memorable. We spent time walking together and admiring the snow-covered landscape. I love that they were up for doing a session with the snow! It was cold but worth the landscape looking like a winter wonderland. These two pushed through the freezing weather […]

beautiful engagement couple holding each other and smiling big

One thing that I really love about shooting engagement sessions at Carkeek Park is the variety of backgrounds. We were able to get the backdrops of a wooded trail, a grassy area, and the beach! There is also the bridge and other areas around that you can incorporate. And with the changing tide, it’s like […]

This sunset Gold Creek Pond engagement session is right out of Ferngully! The mountain glow mixed with green overgrowth is so dreamy. These vibes make Gold Creek Pond such a great spot to shoot, that’s why it’s usually busy at golden hour. For this session we headed out on a weekday evening and had the whole place […]

Last week, I finally made the trek up to Rattlesnake Ridge to prepare for this Rattlesnake Ledge engagement session! I have been hoping to hike Rattlesnake Ledge Trail since Matt and I moved to Seattle. We planned to hike it a few times, but each time we had the chance, the weather was cloudy. It’s […]

This winter engagement session at Rattlesnake Lake was so much fun. They were referred to me by their friends who I also had the privilege of photographing! I love it when I can work with friend groups. A few days before our shoot I drove out to Rattlesnake Lake to get an idea of what […]
