Downtown Seattle Engagement Photos

Nov

16

I’m always so excited when couples choose Downtown Seattle for their Engagement Photos! Especially, when they trust me to do some work in the city dark.

Night time engagement photos are uncommon. They’re a great way to get something unique out of your session and a fun way to stretch your photographer to think differently for you. I only recommend hiring a photographer who enjoys this sort of challenge and has tried it before!

I had worked with Alicia and Michael a few times before. Once for an extended family photo session and once for a family photo session. About a week after this, they came to the studio for winter mini family session with the kiddos as well! I am looking forward to sharing that one, too. They’re such a great family to work with!

Upon arrival, we discovered Pier 58 and Miners Landing were closed due to collapse and we weren’t sure if we would be able to find a location to work with. After a little walking, we were able to find plenty!

We had a great time taking their day photos and even had a sea lion visit right next to where we were taking photos! After an outfit change, we hopped over to Starbucks for a coffee and to wait out the remainder of sunset for night fall. We love the look of all the city lights on at night!

Clynn captured secondary angles. We had so much fun talking wedding details, real estate investing, and a gazillion other things we found out we have in common! When it was finally dark enough, we went out for the night scene.

CONGRATULATIONS, Alicia & Michael!! They were engaged in Las Vegas just a few months ago and are planning a January 2022 wedding! See you in the studio again, soon!

Early October I got to experience an adventurous and romantic Swiss Autumn with my long distance partner. We traveled deep into the Swiss mountains, ate all the yummy food, met old friends, went to a dance party, made some new friends, enjoyed a private sauna with an impressive view, took naps, snuggled, and went on […]

We have to get a little creative here with our PNW Photojournalism. One of the first things you learn as a new natural light photographer is how incredible a big window can make any room look. A tiny corner in the most unassuming place, if sitting close to a window can produce the most magical […]

Tonight, I took the boys to the Everett Haunted Harbor community event! Everyone putting it on was so sweet and we all had a blast! Thank you to all the boat volunteers! We started with trick or treating at the boats, watching witches paddle board around the harbor, petting all the neighbor dogs, and watched […]

Hey, Mommas. Take a look at your babies now. Go ahead. Just take a quick peek. They grow. Today was a bit exhausting, wasn’t it? There were moments of things never being quite perfect. You tried your best and showed up in every way you could possibly think to and still, you fell short in […]
