Capitol Hill and Gasworks Seattle Engagement Photos

As a West Coaster, Seattle is, of course, a household name. So when couples contact me about photographing their relationship but worry that I may not be available locally, I say it’s no worry at all! I LOVE Seattle and I’m always happy any chance I get to visit. Valerie and Alijah recently moved from NYC to Seattle and we returned there for their wedding, but we had such a blast shimmying and shaking around Capitol Hill and Gasworks for their beautiful Seattle engagement photos.

I connected with these two in a wedding-adjacent Facebook group for fans of My Favorite Murder. Bonding over your common interests is one thing, but bonding over true crime is a whole ‘nother basket case!

They were looking for a photographer who was comfortable and competent capturing engagement and wedding photos for plus-size couples, interracial couples, and who was local to NYC for their wedding — I said I may not be local, but I certainly check off your other boxes and you can bet I’m willing to travel. The mutual love of true crime was just a surprise bonus!

Travelling to Seattle for their engagement pictures on Capitol Hill and at Gasworks was a treat. We poked around Gasworks with their new puppy Jameson (how freakin’ cute is he?!) before heading over to Capitol Hill and popping a bottle to celebrate in front of the Seattle skyline. Getting to travel with them to NYC for their wedding at Housingworks Bookstore in SoHo was just the cherry on top. Keep your peepers peeled for their wedding photos coming soon!

Even though I mostly focus my photography service in Southern California and the Las Vegas area, I also love getting to call myself a travelling photographer with some of the amazing couples I meet! If you’ve seen my work and hesitated to get in touch because of your location, let’s chat about it! I’m sure we can find a way to work together.
