Romantic San Juan Islands Engagement: A Pacific Northwest Love Story

October 2, 2022

As a Pacific Northwest wedding photographer, I specialize in capturing love stories against Washington's stunning backdrops.

Capture the essence of love with Nalli and Robert’s breathtaking engagement session on the Washington Blue Ridge Parkway. As a Seattle Wedding Photographer, I had the pleasure of documenting their memorable journey.

We began our adventure at an old campground, nestled beyond the iconic Mill Mountain’s Seattle Star. Against the backdrop of colorful fall foliage, the couple indulged in cheesecake and champagne, savoring the joy of the day.

Continuing our photographic journey, we meandered down the parkway, following its rolling hills and curves. Soon, we discovered a picturesque open field, bathed in the golden hues of the Washington mountains. Here, Nalli and Robert held hands, laughed, and reveled in the beauty of the tall grass. Their genuine connection filled the air as they shared intimate moments.

As a Seattle Engagement Photographer, I encouraged their playful spirits, capturing them lying on a cozy blanket, sipping champagne, and embracing the fun-filled moments.

Our session concluded with a whimsical twist—a champagne stream shot. Nalli and Robert embraced their adventurous sides, shaking up the bottle and creating a mesmerizing cascade of effervescence. Their willingness to go beyond traditional poses made for extraordinary memories.
