Ready for rain but graced with a reprieve of PERFECT weather in the middle of our storm, Shane & Shannon completely rocked their engagement session this weekend.
Kyle + Melissa {Hovander Park Tennant Lake Engagement Session}
“I choose you. And I’ll choose you, over and over and over. Without pause, without a doubt, in a heartbeat, I’ll keep choosing you.” –Unknown I love Hovander Park and the boardwalks at Tenant Lake on sunny days, and I love young couples who laugh so easily together. Kyle & Melissa’s Bothell wedding this July…

Karen Said Yes! {Surprise Proposal Photography}
When Burt contacted me about surprising his girlfriend with a Seattle rooftop proposal at sunset, I was SUPER excited. Are you kidding me?! What an awesome moment to be a part of!! And it did not disappoint. Burt & Karen’s families all gathered at a cousin’s apartment complex for a “birthday party” for Burt… with…
Brian + Jenna {Bellingham Engagement Photography}
Snow, rain, freezing wind, whatever – nothing could keep these two away! We woke up to snow on the ground at the top of our hill in Ferndale on the morning of our engagement session with Brian & Jenna, and they were totally up for playing in the snow; sadly, driving down the hill to…
Chris + Rachel {Bellingham Engagement Photography}
I get positively giddy when I get couples in front of my camera who are not only in love, but solidly best friends; and these two are the genuine article. We headed to Baker with Chris & Rachel earlier this year, determined to find snow for their engagement session. And find it we did! We…
John & Dhanna {Seattle Engagement Photography}
Once upon a time, a beautiful young Californian couple traveled to the great city of Seattle and visited Gasworks Park. They fell in love with it and said to each other, “Wouldn’t this be a great place for a engagement pictures?” And so, several years later, John & Dhanna returned; now engaged! 🙂 We had…
Tim + Autumn {Bellingham Engagement Photography}
Tim & Autumn are SO STINKIN’ CUTE together! Seriously. I can’t even stand it. After hanging out with them for their engagement session last week, I feel like we’ve known these two for years! The way that they love each other, the way that the look at each other is just amazing; I love seeing…
Neil + Kristine {Bellingham Engagement Photography}
Neil & Kristine are getting married in July, and then two weeks after the wedding are hopping on a plane to go live in another country for a year – how crazy is that? So in the midst of their wedding planning, they’re also planning out that whole thing… talk about multitasking. 😉 But, they’ve…
Timias + Katie {Seattle Engagement Photography}
Katie works for the Everett Aquasox, so it was only natural that we take full advantage of that fact during her and Timias’ engagement session. SO cool! We got the “backstage” pass to everything – dugout, home plate, even the sweet old manual scoreboard. On top of it all, Katie is the prop queen, so…
Lance + Brynn {Bellingham Engagement Photography}
We met Lance & Brynn for the first time on Tuesday, and that Sunday we were hanging out again for engagement photos. These guys don’t waste any time! 🙂 And even though it was raining on us – despite having gorgeous weather the entire week, of course – they were still up for anything. We…
Andrew + Hanna {Bellingham Engagement Photography}
We met Andrew & Hanna in Fairhaven at Marine Park to kick off their engagement session, hit up Katie’s Cupcakes and wound up on the third floor of Village Books. What an AWESOME day! These lovebirds are SO stinkin’ adorable, I can’t even get over it. Love them!
Chris + Rachel {Bellingham Engagement Photography}
SO CUTE, SO FUN!! Best way to describe these two. My cheeks seriously hurt after hanging out with Chris & Rachel at Lake Padden for their engagement session. 🙂 Not only did they get in the water immediately and then crawl through the tall grass (these are my kind of people!) the highlight of the…
Brian + Amanda {Bellingham Engagement Photography}
Our dear friends Brian & Amanda are getting MARRIED – finally!! And getting married in Belize, no less. We cannot WAIT for this wedding, it’s going to be simply incredible! But in the meantime, we took a springtime trip over to Elizabeth Park and poked around a few back alleys downtown Bellingham for their engagement…
Brent + Rosie {Bellingham Engagement Photography}
Rosie and Brent are SO fricken adorable! Talk about a great match. We met them up in Sumas at the Cedar Springs Retreat Center on a sweltering September afternoon to begin their engagement session, and we ended up in downtown Sumas (where I’ve secretly wanted to shoot for a long time). They persevered like champs…
Jason & Stephanie {Bellingham Engagement Photography}
Jason & Stephanie may have been a bit nervous before their July engagement session that it would be awkward to have a camera in their face… but they didn’t count on how FUNNY it would be! 😉 We met them at Hovander Park and pretty much just played around for an hour, giggling our way…
Phil & Andrea {Bellingham Engagement Photography}
Adventure: meet Andrea! This chick is AWESOME. When I joked about jumping in the water at Whatcom Falls Park during their engagement session and she said “let’s do it!” I thought – I LOVE this girl!! ;D And Phil is her perfect match. He goes along with the crazy ideas and laughs the whole way…
Steven & Whitney {bellingham engagement photography}
Steven & Whitney are an amazing couple. They’ve gone through a lot together in the last few years, and you can tell as soon as they look at each other that they’re completely, deeply in love. Not the mamby-pamby kind of love, either – this is the real stuff. We got to spend the afternoon…
Larry & Kelley {bellingham engagement photography}
Larry & Kelley can be summed up in one word… okay maybe two: COMPLETELY AWESOME. They love vintage; they ARE vintage. Seriously, they may have dolled up a bit for the engagement session, but this is them all over! Kelley, along with being a bartender, is a photographer; together with her sister, she covers weddings…
Ben & Amy {bellingham engagement photography}
Back in May, Ben & Amy met us in Fairhaven to play around for their engagement session. We already knew that they’d be a good time, but what we didn’t know is that Amy REALLY hates PDA… and Ben really likes it. ;D Haha!! Definitely had a few good laughs around that one! She was…
Tamir & Rivka Chaya {Bellingham Engagement Photography}
These two are seriously a RIOT. Tamir & Rivka Chaya came up to Bellingham to play for their engagement session just a couple of weeks before their wedding last fall. Jewish laws don’t allow for males & females to touch before marriage, which you would think would make for boring pictures – HA! So much…
