Cape Flattery Surprise Proposal 

There is no better place to find diversity in the landscape than in the Olympic National Park. When Stephanie reached out to me about photographing her surprise proposal to Madison with Cape Flattery in mind, I knew it was perfect for them based on their interests.

Mount Rainier Elopement

On the day of Evan and Kelly’s elopement, I woke up and immediately went to check the conditions at Mount Rainier from my dining room window. Even though their wedding took place during the first week of September, Rainier is the tallest mountain around and can create its own cloud coverage no matter the season. Visiting in summer gives you the best odds of seeing the mountain, but there is always a chance that it could be covered in clouds.

Road Tripping to Glacier National Park

Is anyone else feeling antsy from being home during the pandemic for so long!? Zach and I have found the perfect solution for safe and nearly hassle-free travel (no wild airports, extremely long waits for rental cars, etc.!). Road trips! Back in 2020, we road tripped to Moab with Zach’s family, and during the summer of 2021 Zach and I visited Glacier National Park.

Winter Olympic National Park Engagement

The Olympic National Park is full of so many incredible, yet easily accessible, locations. This lake, in particular, is one of my favorite spots to visit. It has everything you could want in one location — mountains, a lake with a picturesque dock, forest, and even a waterfall if you’re willing to hike. Like magic, the mountains look good no matter the weather, so it’s truly a gem to see.

They planned the trip for their fourth anniversary, and, as a present, Nick organized setting up their shoot with me (cue the awww’s).

Guide to Planning an Olympic National Park Wedding

Personally, I think the Olympic National Park is extremely underrated. It’s one of the quietest spots in the continental United States, covers almost one million acres, and over 95% of the park is designated wilderness.

It boasts three unique ecosystems — glaciated mountains, 73 miles of rugged coastline, and temperate rainforest – meaning you could find vastly different landscapes by the hour. It’s an incredible place, and so far, is, my favorite place to explore in Washington.

Mount Rainier Fall Engagement

Mount Rainier is known as “the mountain” here in western Washington. At 14,417 feet, it’s the state’s tallest mountain. It’s so tall and prominent, in fact, that it creates its own weather. Often, you’ll see Rainier wearing a “cap,” or lenticular clouds that regularly form atop it. That being said — reliable weather is not what Rainier is known for.

Backpacking to Havasupai Falls, Arizona

My husband, Zach, and I backpacked to Havasupai Falls in the Grand Canyon in April of 2018. It felt unbelievably surreal while we were there, and it still doesn’t feel like it really happened.

Havasupai and Mooney Falls are two of the most famous waterfalls in the world, and rightly so. Their turquoise waters, surrounded by red rocks, are stunning. The trip there is quite the trek though — 10 miles each way, to be specific.

One Week In Yellowstone National Park

Driving to Yellowstone with my husband and in laws last August was my first ever road trip! The trip was incredible and now I understand why Yellowstone is the most visited national park in the U.S. It shocks you with geysers and hot springs, then awes you with rolling hills, valleys of bison and beautiful lakes.
