Love Story {engagement}

I am so in love with how completely in love these two are! This gorgeous couple will be tying the knot in January, but get this - their engagement session was the last time they will see each other until the big day! Wild, right? Originally from Florida, they are both in the military and stationed in different states. The bride-to-be happened to be in the area to interview for the medical residency program at Fort Lewis (clearly this girl has no shortage of brains or beauty!), so the groom-to-be jumped on a flight all the way from Georgia just to spend a free day with her. Yes, a single day. It was beautiful watching these two treasure every moment together - every smile, every touch - in a way that most take for granted. To say they are madly in love would be a huge understatement! Their chemistry was practically tangible. It was a complete honor to get to spend a few precious hours with this sweet couple to capture their engagement session!

Evening in the Field {family}

With the final weeks of our gorgeous Seattle summer sadly coming to a close coupled with a constantly changing forecast, I was nervous to look out the window on the morning of this shoot. To my surprise, it wasn't just a good day for a shoot - it was perfect. Thank you, sun gods!! The only thing more beautiful than the weather that day is this family - obviously. How stinkin' adorable are these little boys?!

Mr. Personality {Family Session}

I just adore this family! Aside from being completely adorable, these little boys were full of smiles. Big brother was a total ham - and ALL boy. This family session couldn't have been easier or more fun!
