Engagement session when its raining in Olympia, WA
For this rainy-day engagement session in Olympia, Washington, we chose two stunning locations: the Washington State Capitol Building and the Samarkand Rose Garden. This combination of grand architecture and lush greenery created a perfect balance of elegance and nature. And both locations are free.
The Washington State Capitol, with its towering columns and intricate details, provided a timeless and sophisticated backdrop. Indoors and under the covered walkways, we captured moody, romantic shots while staying dry from the rain.
Samarkand Rose Garden, even on a drizzly day, offered a dreamy, intimate setting with its vibrant blooms and winding pathways. The soft, diffused light from the overcast sky made the colors pop, adding to the session’s romantic feel.
Engagement Session Tip: Embrace the PNW weather! An umbrella can add a stylish touch while keeping you dry, and layering up in neutral tones helps create a timeless look against Olympia’s classic architecture and lush gardens.
