Skagit Valley Engagement photographer: Caitlyn and Tyler

What would a co-worker know about finding her perfect match? According to Caitlyn there was no way she could be right and she didn't have time to waste on blind dates. Despite her hesitation Caitlyn's coworker insisted that Tyler was perfect for her and secretly sent her number to him anyways.

Tyler was bound and determined to win her over for the chance for at least one date. Wasting no time he sent her a text that night, and another the next and the next night. Until he finally worked up the nerve to surprise her at work with lunch.

Who would have guessed that their friend was right all along, Caitlyn was instantly swept off her feet by his charm.

After almost 4 years of dating Tyler took Caitlyn to a local pumpkin patch where they spent the day enjoy the fall activities. Caitlyn was enjoying herself so much she just about missed the pumpkin carving display against the wall with the words "Will you Marry me" illuminated.

Caitlyn saw an engagement session we did this Fall where the couple bravely waded through the chilly Pacific Northwest waters for some amazing photos. She quickly responded that she wanted those photos.

You never know how a groom is going to react when you ask him to go up to his knees in mucky waters, all while fully dressed. But Tyler was not one to complain, knowing it was important to his bride. That is nothing short of true love.

Caitlyn and Tyler I hope you believe it was worth the few minutes of cold for these amazing photos. Congratulations you guys we can't wait for your Snohomish wedding in June.

Skagit Valley Engagement Photography- Landon and Rachael

At the request of her friend Rachael agreed to attend a local youth group. It was there that her friend introduced her to Landon. She had no intention of falling for Landon but he wasn't about to let her go once he met her. 

Landon spent many months preparing the perfect proposal. He knew it had to be memorable so with the help of her family Landon sent Rachael on a hunt all over town. 
Though she had a feeling something big was about to happen Rachael was beyond ecstatic to see at the end of her hunt was the love of her life on one knee with a ring box in hand. 

Even though Landon and Rachael's wedding will hopefully take place and a warm summer night this July their engagement photos were nothing short of what you would expect from a Washington December evening. Despite the sun peaking through the thick clouds every now and then the wind kept the air close to freezing. 

That didn't stop them from hiking all over the frost covered hills. And it made for some pretty cute snugging shots and they attempted to keep warm. 

Seattle Engagement Photography: Nicole and Joe

Very few people will ever know us like our best friends. So who better to pick our future spouse? Nicole may have been hesitate when her coworker tried to set her up with a close friend. But, by the second time Nicole saw Joe she knew he was someone worth fighting for. 

Joe and my husband, Jimmy, work off and on together, so when Joe asked us to help plan a session for the holidays we knew it was going to be nothing short of fun and one to remember.

Nicole's only request was trees and with crazy fall storms and already being the middle of November we weren't sure we could fulfill that request. But by some miracle we were able to find an amazing amount of color along green lake's running path.  

We spent the entire week worrying about rain that we never even had the thought of crazy wind. . Joe and Nicole trusted us as we set them up on the edge of the dock with crazy wind threatening to blow us all overboard, while trying to pretend that they weren't freezing. 

Congratulations Joe and Nicole, you guys are beyond perfect for each other and we couldn't be happier for you and this next step in your relationship. So honored to be trusted to capture this special moment. 

See their live proposal here on our youtube channel. 

Skagit Valley Engagement Photography: Amanda and Jacob

Jacob and Amanda met in high school. He was a senior and she was a freshman.  It didn't take long for Jacob to convince Amanda that their friendship needed to be more. 

On a cold winter evening Jacob snuck Amanda into one of their favorite spots to go every year in Seattle. With not a single sole around he got down on one knee and ask her to be his bride. It may have taken months for him to convince her they were a perfect fit but only seconds to convince her they would be together forever. 

Nik and Karen Engagement

When you meet a couple as fun loving as Nik and Karen you know their engagement session is going to be a blast. 
From the minute they met their relationship has been an adventure. 

Nik knew that not just any ring would do for his one of a kind bride. He had her ring custom designed by a jeweler in their home town Anacortes WA. 

We are so excited to be part of their one of a kind wedding this upcoming June. 

Skagit Valley Engagement Photographer: Rodney and Baylee

Despite going to the same high school Baylee needed some convincing to go on that first date with Rodney. While everyone else seemed to know that just like their trucks they were a perfect match for each other. She however didn't need any convincing that he was the one for her when he privately asked her to marry him after a fun day of valentine's day activities.
