Dramatic West Coast Cliffside Marriage Proposal

The further I drove out on the Olympic Peninsula, the foggier it was getting. When I got to the trailhead, there were cargo ships tooting fog horns in the distance — a very bad sign. I was afraid the views, like the ships signaling to one another, would be socked in with fog.

Lake Crescent Elopement

Devon and Chris chose to elope in Washington because it’s always been a dream of Devon’s to visit. Photos of the Pacific Northwest have always caught her eye, and eloping was the perfect reason to finally visit. With so much romanticizing of this location, I was a bit timid to ask her what she thought of it, but I was so happy when she said it all exceeded her expectations!

Seattle Arboretum Fall Elopement

At 230 acres, the Washington Park Arboretum is Seattle’s third-largest park. It’s large enough to make you forget you’re amidst a bustling city while you’re wandering its many trails. The grand trees, flowers, and waterfront along Lake Washington make it a lovely place to visit any time of year, but especially in the fall.

Lake Crescent Spring Engagement

The Olympic National Park is known for its rain — it is the United States’ wettest continental rainforest after all — so it was a delightful surprise when the forecast predicted sunshine for Maggie and Ryan’s engagement shoot. We arrived to see clear skies, a sparkling blue lake, and temps in the 60s! It was a wonderful change from the rainy spring we’ve had in western Washington this year.

Olympic Peninsula Surprise Proposal

When Eric reached out to me about photographing his proposal to Allison one week before their trip to Washington, I was ecstatic — I love photographing proposals! Growing up, he’d spent his summers visiting his grandparents living on the Olympic Peninsula, so he already had plenty of ideas of where to pop the question. He was debating between it happening on the Dungeness Spit or an iconic lavender farm when I told him about my secret gem of a spot. He was immediately sold!

Washington Forest Elopement

When Cindy and Joe told me about their idea of a woodland fairy-inspired elopement, I was thrilled to hunt down the best ceremony location for them. In fact, Manchester State Park was the first place to come to my mind. They were hoping to stay close to Olympia, additional beach or water views would be a bonus, and, in case of rain, they wanted shelter nearby.
