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!

Hi! How are you? Thinking of lots of my clients lately and hoping you’re doing well no matter where life has taken you! I’ve been laying low. Loving on my kiddos, friends, sisters, and partners. They’re all taking great care of me, too! Working my booty offf. Trying to eat healthy and navigate adulting more […]

The in between

Life has been very romantic lately. Unknown and confusing and both flighty and grounded all at once. I remember being 14 and seeing my entire life by your side. Life is wild. I remember a water bottle and abandoned bleachers. I remember axe body spray and the way I had never been kissed. I know […]

Nirvana & I think of you

I hope you know better than to think I’d want to be anywhere but here right now. It was true on NYE and it’s true right now in my car outside the café. This may have felt seamless. Too seamless. Happenstance. But I’m here on purpose, now. I see your soft heart and I see […]

I hope you know better

You’ll walk through a glittering white veil, uncharacteristically soft compared to what you’ll find behind it. It has no need to keep you out. You quickly realize it’s the aura within that turns most around. The texture disorients. I’ll already be inside. What do you see? Upon first impression, you’re in a desert. Interesting considering […]
