Spokane Photographers: Chris & Lea's Engagement Photos

Chris and Lea are two people I highly enjoyed. Quick to laugh and smile, game for almost anything, and so easy to have fun with. This was made apparent to me over and over again during their engagement photos, and one of those ways was just listening to how they met. Like so many couples these days, they both swiped right. For those of you that don't know what that means, it means they met on Tinder. In reality, Lea didn't actually* swipe right, her sister did that for her.

Spokane Engagement Photos: Jared & Kat's Manito Engagement

Jared and Kat have such a cool story. They met at a Halloween party their mutual friend was throwing. The thing is, they both didn't really PLAN to be there. Jared found himself deciding to randomly go to the party at around 11:30 at night after his day had completely finished. Kat on the other hand, found herself at the party after visiting a cemetery and talking to the high grounds keeper (Dave) who was "incredibly nice". She said that her friends invited her over, and she figured "why not?"

Coeur d'Alene Photographer: Robbie & Cassie's Engagement

The first time they met was at a bar, but for Cassie, Robbie didn't leave that strong of an impression. For Robbie however, he was immediately quite interested in his roommates friend, and so began to plan (along with his roommates) how he may be able to see her again. Enter softball - he was the organizer of the team and his roommates convinced Cassie to come play with their team.

Coeur d'Alene Engagement Photographer: Chris & Michelle

In short, Chris and Michelle met because they both swiped right. Chris was in the military, Michelle was just starting out as a lawyer, and both were trying online dating. Chris was about to give up when he found Michelle on Tinder, and he sent her a Parks and Rec quote. He told me he had tried it before (and it didn’t' work) but it was cleaver enough he was convinced he should try again.

North Idaho Engagement: Sport & Erika

They met at church in Panama (If I'm remembering right) when they were 10 (or close to). They were friends, but that friendship only lasted about a year. Erika's family was going through a big transition and they would move away not long after. But there was an impression.

Spokane Wedding Photographer: Viktor and Rachel's Mountain Engagement

Viktor and Rachel met - really met - at church. Rachel was there and wanted to sit with her sister (if I remember the story correctly) but there was "some random guys" coat on the chair she wanted to sit on. So she sat there anyway. Viktor told me he was initially upset about the situation (some random person taking his seat) but when he saw who the chair thief was, and her beautiful smile, he was much more ok with it. This is the first time either of them really stuck out in each other's minds - although technically they also were both in the same wedding at some point earlier. But that's it, they didn't talk much at church, or after, and Viktor did a great job of playing it cool.
