Renata + ChrisQueen Anne EngagementSeattle, WA

Hello 2013!  How lucky am I that I get to work with Renata and Chris to fulfill their request for a Queen Anne engagement session near their home.

We were #soblessed with a beautiful, sunny day and leisurely followed the good light before it quickly left us altogether after some introductory (and nerve-calming) beverages at the Hilltop Alehouse on Queen Anne and tasty Cubanos from El Diablo.

These two are SMART.  And they save lives.  And they have a fantastic Australian shepherd named Ruddy with a winning personality.  FWIW, Ruddy is also the first organism with a heart beat to ride in the back of my beloved wagon.

The session began by working some low, warm light in Parson’s Garden before exploring nearby textures provided the many phenomenal homes in the area. As we were just a few days into the new year it was very cold so snuggling for the couple came naturally and be necessity!

Ruddy rules.  So do Chris and Renata.  I can’t wait for their Seattle Aquarium wedding with Emily from Manette Gracie making things purdy and keeping the timeline Swiss.

April + RyanQueen Anne EngagementSeattle, WA

Please meet April + Ryan as I joined them for their Queen Anne engagement session. I’m sure you’ll love them as much as I do. I joined the lovely couple at their new home in Queen Anne, my much-loved and former stomping grounds. From there we cruised up and down Dexter Avenue to hit some spots that have long been on my radar from constantly jogging or cycling by.

There’s no muss or fuss here… The connection between these two was easy, breezy and palpable. Sometimes I need to interject some ideas of how to “pose” together whilst other times, as in this case, it’s as simple as letting a couple be together.

Please also let me share a MAJOR thank you to the Fabulous Fashion and Senior Portrait Photographer Michelle Moore for introducing me to these two. Michelle and April are BFF’s from way back in the day. I can’t wait to join these two in Spokane this August as their friends and families come together to celebrate their union.

Can’t wait to spend more time with these two as they get get hitched later this summer. Get at me to shoot a Queen Anne engagement any ol’ time.
