seattle engagement photographer | dave & brittney.

I can't say enough about how awesome this session was. A super fun couple, a gorgeous Seattle day, and a "tour" of our beautiful city made for the ultimate engagement session. We started out on the beach, moved into a lovely haven of the last of the famous cherry blossoms, and finished at the iconic Gasworks Park. Brittney had every detail planned out from her summer sandals and Dave's boat shoes on the beach to their very fancy red dress and suit combination with the city as a backdrop. Oh, and it was Brittney's birthday. Getting dressed up and taking photos around her favorite city, then a night out on the town with her man? What a way to celebrate! I had the best time working with these two and can't wait to photograph their wedding at Lord Hill Farms this fall, which is sure to impress. Enjoy the photos!

This couple. Creative, talented, smart -- they just go together. When I first met them, I knew that I really wanted to be a part of their wedding festivities. Not just because Stephen is a talented designer and Elisabeth is creative and her wedding ideas are so incredibly unique, and also not because the wedding is in Leavenworth (albeit a huge plus), but because of the way they are together. You can just tell that they get along so well and there is a genuine affection for each other. Seeing them pull out their laptops and passionately talk about their wedding plans and ideas was just so wonderful and made me feel like I was right along there with them making the big plans. Elisabeth told me she wanted to have their engagement photos taken with the cherry blossoms. So on a quiet day in March, we took a stroll through the beautiful Washington Arboretum and I got to capture their love.

Last week the I visited my alma mater to see the iconic cherry blossoms in the Quad. They seemed to be at their peak and there were tons of people out viewing and taking photos. As I was leaving it started pouring rain so I feel like I was pretty lucky to see them when I did. Happy spring everyone!

Spring has officially sprung here in the Northwest. Our beloved cherry blossoms are blooming and it's time to go out and play! I had the pleasure of photographing Stephen and Elisabeth in the Arboretum a few days ago. The scenery was blissful. So here we go, let's welcome spring with love.
