PIKE PLACE MARKET COUPLES PHOTOGRAPHY

Check out our Seattle couples photography sessions for more sessions like this Pike Place Market couples photography session in the area.

This sweet Canadian couple got in touch with us for a couples session in Seattle, Washington. As we got to know them we found they did a fun and unique thing when they travelled together. When they went to visit a new location they got a photo session done together. In place of selfies in fun and unique places they visited, they get a photographer. Then the get to grab photos of them that show off their love for one another in the unique location. We love the idea and we’re so glad they went with us for their excursion to Seattle. For their Pike Place Market couples photography session we shot at some iconic spots in Seattle.

With over 100 fires burning in Canada, the skies were covered in smoke all along the north western area. With the smoke all around it was making the skies hazy and turning the sun red as it set. As we began at The Seattle Great Wheel the sun was already beginning to lose it’s potency behind the smoke. We began with shooting outside the Seattle Aquarium which gave us a nice backdrop with The Seattle Great Wheel.

SEATTLE COUPLES PHOTOGRAPHY

There was also a really pretty blue wall with some good windows for reflections to work with here. After that we went up to the gum wall right below Pike Place Market and got a few quick shots. As it was fairly crowded there we went up to the Pike Place Market where I crossed the street. I laid down on the road to grab them in front of the iconic market sign. With all the shops closed inside the Pike Place Market, we got a few shots inside. We then went outside to grab a few more pictures on the patio overlook. With the Seattle Great Wheel lit up behind us and further back in the distance it made for a great background. Our session finished as we made our way back through a new addition to the market and into the streets.

It was such a privilege to get to work with them and get to know them. We’re definitely hoping our paths cross again whether for their wedding or some other travel experience! Pike Place is one of the more iconic location in Seattle and we were so happy to be able to shoot there with this couple. If you love these shots and want to have us capture you at iconic locations in your area, we’d love to talk and schedule a session with you!
