Amanda and Ryan | Seattle WA Engagement Photographer

I'm Jackie

Traveling wedding photographer + photography/small biz educator.

Mesmerized by the way two people love each other, each so uniquely.  I always leave room for dessert. Believe swear words are just sentence embellishers. Think indulgences are necessary in this life. 

hey hey

Parties with all the best people in their lives.

Love stories in all forms without the white dress... or maybe they wore white, it happens.

Just my little thoughts on different topics of planning your wedding day big party or just you two.

Stories of two lovers making it all about them, as they should.

Snoqualmie Falls Seattle WA Engagement Photos Couple Kissing

My best friend is getting married…

But first comes engagement photos.

Last week we road tripped our way to Seattle for a weekend away for photos. Loud singing, very off tune by Amanda, lots of laughter, too much take out, and a lot of rain. But we made it to the Seattle WA area hoping to stop at Snoqualmie Falls and Rattlesnake Ledge first before making our way into the city. But it POURED rain. After a quick regroup we decided the universe was telling us no. That day was not the day. So we listened. Went into the city for drinks made with cotton candy, more food and then crashed out.

Bright and early, actually dark and early, we got up. Grabbed coffee. And headed out to hike Rattlesnake Ledge and go up to Snoqualmie Falls. That day the universe screamed yes. We made it up to the ledge with views for miles and no one in sight, but we passed at least 50 people on the way back down. Then over to falls sneaking our way out there and uh whoa… I legit have no words for how amazing that was. And the rain started just as we got in the car. We had some lunch and went back to the hotel for Amanda & Ryan to get ready for some sunset photos, in hopes that the sun would come out for just a few minutes. And dammit, it did!!! I was so exhausted and almost called it quits saying we don’t need any more photos. But we wanted them and I’m SO glad we did them. Cause holy what?!?!

I don’t really know how to express at this moment how happy I am for my bestie and her man or how obsessed I am with these photos, so I’ll let the photos speak. Also I gotta save my sappy love letter to them for my speech at the wedding of course 🙂

Can’t wait for next summer when I get to put the camera down and just stand up beside these two!!!!!!

XOXO
