Engagement photo shoot at ballard locks in seattle, wa. I had a blast photogaphing chris and susan, they were a real pleasure to work with. I like to take pictures that show the couples relationship rather than just what they were wearing, chris and susan were pros and would look good no matter what, but more candid and photojournalistic pictures work well with couples that are not as comfortable in front of the camera. Be sure to click on the link above to see their slideshow. Be sure to check back in January for their wedding photos. I\'ll be their wedding photographer.

Casual engagement photo shoot at golden gardens in seattle. I like to do photo shoots at a couple of locations to give the couples some variety

Golden gardens engagment photo under the trees

Engagement photo session ended up at Pike Street market under the sign that reads public market center and farmers market. I took this photo with the Nikon D3 Iso 2000 1/200th of a second and f2.8 with a nikon nikkor 24-70mm 2.8. The high iso on this camera is amazing see how clear the picture is. I also used a lowel video light, this aided in focusing and also brought up the exposure on the couple. the video light was held up high with my left hand as I took the photo. A photo taken with a flash from this same spot would have caused the whole background to turn orange. The other bennefit of using the video light is it turns the sky really blue, where the flash would dull it out. I love the D3 especially for taking night shots like this one.
