Golden Hour Beach Engagement Photos // Port Angeles, WA // Samantha + Camden

I had such an amazing evening hanging out with Samantha + Camden last September, and capturing these adorable Golden Beach Engagement photos in Port Angeles! They were seriously such a laid back + sweet couple, and I could not be happier with how the photos turned out!

Samantha and Camden are honestly such a cute couple. Also, can we talk about how Samantha looks literally identical to Taylor Swift? She had me doing double takes all night long. Their dynamic is so playful and fun, and their love for each other is overwhelming. I loved the spot that we chose for these engagements in Port Angeles! Everything from the tall grass we ran through, to the rocky PNW shore was perfect for these photos! I had so much fun playing with the lighting as the sun began to set, and lit them up in such a gorgeous way! I was obsessed with how the golden sunlight broke through the tall grass. Just perfect!

We found ourselves cracking up on the beach, as tons of birds flew right above their heads! It was so fun to capture them together in that moment. They definitely were not strangers to adventure, and they were so down to let me chase them around pretty much everywhere! Some of my favorite sessions are the ones where we don’t really have a solid plan, and instead I get to wander around with my couples and find spots that feel perfect for them. I had so much fun playing with all kinds of different angles and motion blur! By the end of the evening, I left with the fullest heart. Samantha and Camden were SO much fun, and I hope you all love these photos as much as we do!
