Kelli & Cody's Engagement | UW Arboretum, Pioneer Square | Seattle, WA

We began their shoot at the University of Washington's Arboretum. One of the Arboretum's designers gave Ryan a private tour of the grounds before the shoot — it was helpful to learn about the less-traveled spots. Then we headed to Seattle's Pioneer Square for dusk…and Pioneer Square delivered! It wasn't too busy (the Mariners were playing, but it was only the bottom of the 3rd). We found a beautifully-lit alley  that we'd shoot in any day! (We had to remove some trash cans in our editing process, but it was well worth it.)

We're enamored with what they gave us to work with, and we can't wait to shoot Kelli & Cody's wedding, coming up here soon!

Blanca & Tom's Engagement | Howard Amon Park | Richland, WA

Now this couple has no problems smiling. They are truly giddy with each other. And we love that they enjoy goofing around (it makes for great photos!). We took great advantage of the saturated fall colors, which suited them well: he played the guitar to her on a bench, and the autumn colors couldn't have complemented them better.

We can't wait for their 2014 wedding!
