When a couple first contacts me for a session, I first squeal in delight, then get down to the nitty gritty. The look and feel of an engagement session is so specific to each couple. Generally they have a pretty good idea of the look they are going for and so we try to form a plan and go from there. Together we decided that Downtown Tacoma would be the perfect backdrop for this session. With a wide variety of locations we were able to explore and try different things. And when Karie and Gavin mentioned ending their session with a beer, how could I say no? I had a blast during this session and just love this couple and these photos!! 

I can’t tell you how excited I was when I was asked to do engagement photos for this adorable couple…and that they wanted them in Downtown Seattle!! I love shooting in the city and it is such a nice change from the parks and fields (which I love too!!). I think this fit them so well and I had so much fun capturing their love and excitement! The bride-to-be just moved here about a month and a half ago and the groom-to-be had just flown in for a visit the morning of our shoot, so needless to say, I did not have to do much to get them to interact…you could tell these two missed each other!!!

Thanks again Tessa & Travis!! You guys are awesome and I hope you love your images. Thank you SO much for allowing me to capture such a special time for you!

And now I present…City Love 🙂

I find the market to be SO romantic 🙂

We did end up finding some greenery that I just could not resist! And I already see some signs of fall!
