There’s something especially magical about Seattle in the fall. The changing leaves, crisp morning air, and softer golden light create the perfect backdrop for engagement photos.

An engagement session amongst the trees of Treehouse Point!
A few weeks ago Baylee sent me a message on Instagram to ask if I was available to capture her proposal at Treehouse Point, I of course said yes!

A snow filled Stevens Pass engagement session // Wyatt and Miranda
In the weeks leading up to Wyatt and Miranda’s engagement session I was working myself up into an anxious mess about driving over the pass in late December. Every day I was obsessively watching the weather and the traffic cameras, predicting that the day we were due to do the sesison there would be a freak snow storm that only struck when I was crossing the pass. I actually eneded up borrowing a friends 4x4 just to make sure I was fully prepared. All of which came to nothing because the day I drove over the pass it was gorgeous clear blue skies and though there was snow on the ground there were two “ruts” that were clear to the ground. Basically it was absolutely no bother at all!

Molly and Kenji’s engagement session at Carkeek Park could not have asked for better late summer weather if it had tried. The temperature was just right for walking around but not hot enough to draw everyone else to the park as well.
A fiery Point Defiance Engagement Session // Pacifica and Evan
While I do have some favorite spots and go to’s for engagement sessions, it’s not often that I go to them back to back but that’s what happened last Fall with Point Defiance Park.

Joyful Carkeek Park Summer Engagement Session // Rachel & Trent
When I met Rachel & Trent for their consult we grabbed coffee outside at a coffee shop and we ended up talking for almost four hours and Rachel & I ended up with sunburn (Trent was smart and sat in the shade) but that should tell you something about how well I get on with these two.
Moody Fall Wahclella Falls Engagement Session // Grace and Russell
When Grace reached out to me she told me that she was a bridesmaid at Carly & Ana’s wedding a couple years ago and I was like hmm I don’t recognize the name. But when I went back to their gorgeous day and matched her face to her name I instantly remembered what a fun person she was and so I was very excited for their engagement session!

Same Sex Point Defiance Park Engagement Session // Adam + Tony
When Adam and Tony suggested Point Defiance Park for their engagement session, I was super pumped. However when I got there I discovered that Five Mile Drive was closed and so was Owens Beach, two of the best locations in the whole park!
