Seattle Engagement | Sabrina + Brian |Luther Burbank Park

I have known Sabrina for years and was thrilled when she asked me to help capture their engagement.  We met over AM beverages, to chat a bit and help settle some nerves.  It was great to catch up and after a few shots in the restaurant, we drove over to Luther Burbank Park.  I was surprised to hear someone so gorgeous say she was feeling anxious for her photos, and I sure didn't believe her when I started shooting.  They were both SO natural and were adorably generous with their affection toward one another. If a couple is as comfortable with each other as they are, it doesn't matter if they're comfortable in front of a camera; these photos are proof of that.    does Colby not have the cutest expressions?! Such a great dog

Seattle Engagement Session | Melissa + Kaylen

I am not known for my amazing sense of direction.  I rarely know which mountain I see in the distance and I have all my friends' addresses in my car's GPS because I just don't trust myself to get there on my own.  I'm not proud of these things, but they're also not high priority on my list of self-improvement .. well I should probably learn my mountains to prepare for my son's questions, but I digress... I met this fantastic couple at Discovery Park and our goal was to take some cute shots on the way down to the water, where we really wanted to be.. the only problem is, we could not figure out which way to go.  After asking many strangers and following, what I'm sure was, the most indirect path down, we finally made it!  It ended up being a great way to hear their story and get to know them, and these two troopers still looked amazing after our little hike.  Their easy going style made me even more excited to photograph their wedding next spring!

I love how she's leading him into their bright future here..
