A Smoky Sunset, Dirtbikes, and Beer | The Lookout Lodge Snohomish Engagement

Snohomish engagement session at The Lookout Lodge with KTM dirtbikes and beer in the smoky sunset

This Snohomish engagement session at The Lookout Lodge was everything dreams are made of.

We’ve been socked in with heavy smoke for over a week now (literally, our AQI has been hovering between 170-190) and we weren’t sure how the light would treat us, especially up on the hill. We were pleasantly surprised and there was a gorgeous glow through the trees.

When Chantelle started talking through ideas with me, she mentioned wanting their Snohomish engagement session to look less posed/more natural, and to have less … “traditional” photos – pretty much everything that is music to my ears. When she mentioned dirt bikes, I knew right where to bring them – the dirt bike track at The Lookout Lodge.

We’re so excited for their 2019 wedding at Ashe & Alder, especially since Tanner’s sister is also one of our past brides (and is married to my brother!)   It’s guaranteed to be a beautiful and fun wedding – and photographing these two for their Snohomish engagement session was so easy, I can’t wait to see what their wedding day brings our way!

I think you’ll agree that they absolutely rocked this Snohomish engagement – don’t forget to leave them some comment love below.

Skip the chaos and the mall crowds—our Santa Sessions are designed for something better.

These 25-minute experiences give your family unhurried time with Santa in a calm, cozy setting. No lines, no rush, no awkward stage smiles—just space for real conversation, giggles, and wonder. Whether your kids want to show Santa their wish list, tell stories, check the nice list, or just soak up the magic, this is your chance to make it personal. We can even create magic storybook photos together!

It’s the kind of Santa experience you’ll actually enjoy—and the kind your kids will remember.

Each session includes a minimum of 25 digital images, a personalized gift for each child from Santa, and a letter from Santa delivered in your gallery. You will also be able to take family photos with and without Santa included.
