Their paths unknowingly crossed again many times throughout the years. They grew up in the same area, attended the same university, and ultimately ended up working for the same company, he as an engineer and she coordinating them. Soon enough, their mothers started putting the pressure on them to reconnect. As it turns out their mothers must know these two pretty well because they had so much in common. All it took was one date, they were hooked.

I met Sara and Ryan for the first time at their new home when we met for their session. Instantly I knew if the weather would cooperate this was going to be EASY. They were warm, loving, and laughed easily.  We set out on a mission to Kirkland, the scene of the official “unofficial” first date. YES the umbrellas came out and we played a bit in the rain, endured the cold, then watched in awe as the sun broke through the clouds giving us the most gorgeous yummy winter light you’ve ever seen. A true Seattle day. The best day.

Sara and Ryan, thank you so much for sharing your love with me! I had such a blast getting to know you. I’m bummed that I’m not the one to photograph your wedding, especially after hearing you detail your tasting. :-) Driving home last night I had a perma-smile on my face. I just feel like I gained two really great friends. Let’s make that burger and beer happen sooooon.

With Love,

Laura
