From boating on Lake Union to a fairytale proposal in front of a castle in Germany, their relationship is built on shared passions and meaningful moments. Their engagement session on a boat reflects this adventurous spirit. With their upcoming wedding at MV Skansonia, a historic boat venue with stunning Seattle skyline views, Kendra and JC’s love for the water and outdoor lifestyle is a perfect blend with them wanting to focus on the joy and connection of their day.

Love Rooted in Adventure

Kendra and JC were set up for an adventure engagement session based on their adventurous lives. They are outdoorsy people, and JC specifically has a passion for boating. They spend a lot of time on the water, so having their engagement session on their boat personally meant a lot to them. On top of that, they’ve chosen MV Skansonia as their wedding venue, another boat parked on Lake Union in Seattle. With a stunning view of the skyline and deep history in Seattle, it perfectly blends their passions and intentions.

Capturing Joy and Connection

Kendra and JC made it clear that while being on the water is an important aspect of both their engagement shoot and wedding, what is more important is capturing the joy and connection of their day and between them. They are conscious that these events will be so joy filled and momentous surrounded by family and friends that have never all been together before. They’re excited to celebrate with all these people and want to look back at their adventure engagement shoot on a boat as well as their wedding day on MV Skansonia as the abundant experiences they are.

Fairytale Proposal in Germany

If I didn’t know this couple was adventurous their proposal would tell me it all! JC proposed while they adventured in Germany in front of a castle. Serious fairytale vibes! I love that this was such a grand proposal and set the stage for their engagement shoot on the water on JC’s boat. I’m excited to see what other adventures are in their future.

Fun and Interactive Engagement Shoot on a Boat

JC and Kendra wanted their engagement photos to feel as interactive and fun as their relationship. And, what better way to do that than incorporating a boat on Lake Union? If you want to make your own adventure engagement shoot, I can help!

Choosing a meaningful location for engagement photos can change the shoot from the typical to something unique. Look for places with personal significance. For instance, where you enjoy spending time together or a spot that reflects your shared passions. Whether it’s a beach, forest, or in the city, the right location adds depth, making your photos even more special. For an adventurous twist, consider places that allow for movement and activities—like a boat ride, a scenic hike, or even exploring a historical landmark. This can help bring energy to the images and shape an experience rather than just a photo shoot. Plus, it helps that these time of adventure engagement shoots will lend themselves to candid images!

Kendra and JC’s engagement shoot on Lake Union reflected the adventurous, joy-filled life they’re building together. With a wedding at MV Skansonia, their story continues to unfold in meaningful ways. It is ingrained in the love of family, friends, and the water. By choosing locations that hold personal significance, like their boat, they created an experience rather than just a photo session. Whether through their engagement or upcoming wedding, every moment is filled with connection, joy, and adventure.
