Engagement Sessions in Seattle, Washington, and Throughout the Pacific Northwest.
An engagement session is not just a box to check before the wedding.
It is a chance to make photos in a place that feels like you, get comfortable being documented, and spend a little time together without the pressure of a full wedding timeline around you. It can be quiet, playful, dressed up, outdoorsy, city-based, messy, sentimental, or simple. The important part is that it actually reflects you.
I help with location ideas, timing, light, outfit guidance, and making sure the session never feels overly stiff. The goal is not to force chemistry. The goal is to create space for it.
What These Sessions Can Look Like
You do not need an epic mountaintop if that is not you.
Some sessions make sense in the city. Some belong on a beach, in the woods, on a trail, at home, or in the neighborhood where you spend your Sundays.
Some couples bring their dog. Some dress up. Some want a more laid back feel. I am happy with all of it as long as it feels honest.
Featured Engagement Galleries
These galleries show full sessions in different environments, seasons, and moods so you can get a better idea of what fits you.
This is the process:
I. Pick the Vibe
We talk about what feels like you. City, mountain, coast, home, editorial, casual, or somewhere in between.
II. Plan the Session
I help with location options, timing, outfit guidance, and the practical stuff that makes a session go smoothly.
III. Shoot and Deliver
During the session, I guide when needed and back off when I should. Afterward, you get a gallery that feels cohesive, natural, and like the two of you.

FAQ
Do you travel?
Yes! I’m based in Seattle but travel throughout the Pacific Northwest and beyond. Wherever your love story takes you, I’m in. For Oregon and California, I offer fixed travel rates.
What if it rains?
This is the PNW. It a real possibility it will! I come prepared. Rain makes for gorgeous, cinematic photos (and we’ll always have a backup plan), but for heavier rain, we can reschedule the shoot (subject to availability).
Can we bring our dog?
Absolutely. I love it when couples include their pets. It adds so much personality to your photos. Let me know your pup’s favorite treats so I can pack extra goodies.
Do you help with planning?
Yes. I’ll help you with your photo session by location scouting, finding the perfect lighting, and more.
When will we receive our photos?
Sneak peeks within one week. Full wedding galleries within 8–12 weeks. Smaller sessions within 2–4 weeks, depending on service.
