A Whidbey Island Engagement Session Full of Heart - Sallee Pictures

I recently joined Sara and Braydon—a sweet, down-to-earth couple from the Seattle area—for the most breathtaking engagement session on Whidbey Island. From the start, they told me they wanted photos that were candid, vibrant, and true to their relationship. During our planning session, Sara shared their favorite things to do together, and what they value most in their images. Since they love the outdoors, Whidbey Island instantly felt like the perfect backdrop. With sweeping shorelines, dramatic cliffs, and golden light pouring through the evergreens, their photos looked like they were lifted straight out of a cinematic love story. Every moment—from the quiet, intimate ones to the playful laughter—felt effortless and authentically them.

As a Pacific Northwest photographer, I always prioritize really listening to my couples. Whether they have a clear vision or only a general feeling they want their photos to capture, my role is to guide, collaborate, and help bring that vision to life. I love getting to know each couple personally so I can create an experience that feels natural and comfortable, never stiff or overly posed. My goal is to make your session fun, memorable, and a genuine reflection of who you are together. When couples can simply relax, trust me, and enjoy the moment—that’s when the magic happens.

If you’re in Kitsap County—Bremerton, Poulsbo, Silverdale, Port Orchard, Kingston, Bainbridge Island—or near Seattle in places like Shoreline, Edmonds, Lynnwood, Bellevue, or Kirkland, I’d love to help capture your engagement story. And if you’re outside these areas, don’t worry—I travel all around Washington and the Pacific Northwest. Reach out to Sallee Pictures, and let’s plan your perfect session!
