Fall Engagement Session at Rattlesnake Lake

When the leaves start turning golden in the fall, there’s no better backdrop for engagement photos than the Snoqualmie area. Becca and Luke’s session at Rattlesnake Lake had everything you’d hope for — mountain views, glowing fall colors, and the peaceful waters of the lake. It was the perfect setting to celebrate this exciting season in their lives.

Why Rattlesnake Lake Was the Perfect Spot

Nestled near Snoqualmie, Rattlesnake Lake is one of those iconic Pacific Northwest locations that feels both rugged and romantic. The shoreline, dotted with weathered stumps, gives such a unique character to photos. Add in the sweeping mountain views and warm, golden light at sunset, and you have all the ingredients for unforgettable engagement pictures.

What stood out most about Becca and Luke’s engagement session was how genuine they were together. Every laugh, every quiet moment, and every glance showed their connection. Including their dog made it even more special — pets always bring so much personality and joy into engagement photos, and it was clear this little guy is part of their love story.

Tips for a Great Engagement Session in Snoqualmie

If you’re planning your own engagement photos in the Snoqualmie area, here are a few helpful tips inspired by Becca and Luke’s day:

  • Choose a location that fits your vibe. Rattlesnake Lake is a fantastic choice if you love the outdoors, with easy access to mountains, forest, and lakefront.

  • Plan for golden hour. The light right before sunset creates soft, flattering tones and that dreamy golden glow.

  • Dress in simple, cozy outfits. Neutral colors look amazing against fall foliage and help the focus stay on your connection.

  • Bring your dog (or something meaningful). Including a personal detail makes your photos feel authentic and unique to you.
