Engagement photos in woods | Shoreview, MN | Nicole & Joe

Nicole and Joe’s engagement photos in the woods in Shoreview, Minnesota were such a blast! From their style to their fun-loving vibe, these two are just the most ideal couple to work with. This was my first time shooting at this park in Shoreview, Minnesota, and I fell in love with the tall pines at this location. Not to mention, we had perfect weather for this shoot.

Nicole and Joe were so much fun to work with. They are so easygoing. They were comfortable in front of the camera, joked around, and had a lot of fun with the process. I had them do a pose which turned into an ab workout, but they never complained. They are truly down for anything.

Nicole and Joe brought their pups Roony & Goldy to join in on their photos. They brought so much energy to our session. I love when clients bring their dogs to engagement photos, so they can capture images with the whole family involved.

I feel like I truly bonded with Nicole and Joe while taking their engagement photos in the woods. We ended our session with the agreement that skillet cookies are the best dessert. (Do you agree?!) I loved getting to know them, and it made me all the more excited for their upcoming destination wedding.

Black Beach, MN Moody Engagement | Brianne & Tobias

Look at these perfect specimens of humans! How freakin gorgeous and Brianne and Tobias?!?! I loved everything about this adventure engagement session. I am still dreaming about it! This was my third time shooting at Black Beach in Silver Bay, MN this year, but the first time it was a moody overcast day. I loved how the weather complimented Brianne & Tobias’s personalities and outfits! These two are amazing!! They are so trendy, so moody, and honestly just so cool!! ha! I wish I was half as cool as them.

My favorite memories of their session were 1. learning Brianne’s nickname for Tobias — ‘cutie’ — freakin love it! & 2. that Brianne really wanted to get as close to the water as possible and wasn’t afraid of getting wet :)

P.S. — Can you guess what the temperature was?!?!

Enjoy their photos below!

Seattle, Washington + Pike Place Market Engagement | Allie & Carson

Seattle, Washington + Pike Place Market Engagement | Allie & Carson

We met them early morning at Pikes Place Market. We were greeted by the faint smell of fish, the bustle of the flower sellers making (stunning) spring bouquets, and a piano player jamming away on a public piano! It was the perfect way to start a day and an engagement session! We walked around the market and ventured down to the gum wall in a little alley below the market! It was so cool and so gross at the same time! The place was probably covered with Rona, but we were enjoying the empty spaces. & Sadie — their super sweet pup — could sniff around to her hearts content!

Franklin Falls Washington Adventurous Engagement | Amanda + Jake

Franklin Falls Washington Adventurous Engagement | Amanda + Jake

Now this is what I call and adventure session! We (Peter, Jake, and I) did not know what we were getting ourselves into with the 5 mile trek to the Franklin Falls haha (Amanda did)! We couldn’t park at the normal trailhead, due to snowpack, so we had to drive back down the highway a few miles to exit 47. We parked on the side of a road and just started walking lol.

Snowy Mountain Engagement | Frisco, Colorado | Kelsey + Taylor

Snowy Mountain Engagement | Frisco, Colorado | Kelsey + Taylor

What an amazing trip :) Not only did I kill it on the slopes (sort of) but I got to work with these two adventurous newlyweds and shoot their engagement session in Frisco, Colorado in the heart of winter and it did not disappoint.

We meet at a trailhead just outside of Frisco, and strolled through the beautiful pine trees and foothills, then headed to Sapphire Point Overlook on the way to Keystone for some breathtaking mountain views!
