Rattlesnake Lake

Oct

10

These engagement portraits at Rattlesnake Lake revealed to me the perfect time of year to shoot at this epic location in North Bend!

I had photographed several portrait sessions at Rattlesnake Lake Before. It’s one of my favorite spots to recommend for couples who want a mountain look without having to do the mountain drive/hike!

Fall is the perfect time for this location as it has a tendency to be very crowded in the summer and super cold in the winter! I still love shooting there in the winter, though. Worth it!

In the Fall, the water is at its lowest revealing tons of cool logs and way more land to work with. It’s not too cold yet, and beautiful colors start popping in the back ground.

The weather was perfect and the crowds were non-existent!

Rattlesnake Lake will definitely be at the top of my location recommendation list in the Fall.

Jasmin and Stephen will be having a wedding out of State in June 2020! I was so happy they brought their cute pup, Java. Doing a couples session with a puppy definitely adds some difficulties behind the scenes. However, its so worth documenting a new family in whole for part of a session!

It was clear how much Java means to Jasmin and Stephen. I love that we got some great photos of all three of them and Java alone as a part of this season of their lives together!

Congratulations to these two as they start new lives in Washington and plan an out-of-state wedding with their family!

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 […]
