Hannah and Collin share a love that feels like it’s out of a movie—vibrant, effusive, and utterly captivating. It feels like witnessing the start of an exciting and heartfelt love story when they’re together. The lovebirds express their love for each other naturally and playfully, and this dynamic creates an atmosphere of love that feels both inspiring and deeply authentic.
The couple’s engagement story, captured by Jenny Losee, is tied to their shared love for nature, especially the ocean. Hannah and Collin chose the Oregon coast for their photoshoot to mirror their Hawaiian engagement. The Oregon shores are known for their dramatic rock cliffs and forests lining the beach. It captures the exotic and untamed beauty of Hawaii but with the rugged charm of the West Coast. This choice reflects their deep connection to raw beauty – a theme they wanted to maintain in their engagement photoshoot.
Jenny is a seasoned wedding photographer with over twelve years of experience. Her intuitive approach allows her to capture authentic moments that resonate with pure emotions. She is fascinated by nature and human interaction, paying attention to subtle details that define a couple’s unique language of love. Her ability to quickly discern this language enables her to create a safe space for authentic expression, allowing her to document the connection between Hannah and Collin with poignant clarity.
The soft, overcast sky lends a dreamlike quality to the images, enhancing couple’s ethereal love. “I wanted to capture Hannah and Collin in their element doing what they do on a date. I wanted to create a lot of space for movement and play as well as intimate, slow, and close.” – said Jenny.
Hannah’s stunning lace gown melds classic bridal elements with a bohemian flair, indicative of her creative and spirited nature. She and her fiance have a love for heavy metal music, and that translates into her style. The dress’s intricate details and sheer fabric play beautifully with the natural light and rugged beach landscape. The bride added trendy ribbon bows to her hair, giving her an edgy princess vibe. Collin complemented her perfectly with his relaxed-fit ivory shirt and casual khaki trousers.
Bride’s bouquet, created by her own hands, is a stunning reflection of her skill as a florist specializing in modern, structural designs. This bouquet beautifully illustrates her ability to combine aesthetics with personal meaning. It comprises striking purple, pink, and pristine white orchids, specifically selected for their unique beauty and symbolic meaning related to Hannah and Collin’s engagement in Hawaii. Additionally, the bouquet includes subtle green accents and other floral varieties that provide texture and contrast.
Some stunning photos of Hannah and Collin were taken against the rugged backdrop of the Oregon coast’s rock cliffs, with the couple positioned centrally and enveloped by the natural world around them. They evoke a visual and emotional depth similar to Gustav Klimt’s iconic painting, The Kiss. Jenny’s moody, subdued color palette and soft lighting enhance the scene’s intimacy, similar to how Klimt used soft, melded colors to highlight the lovers in his painting.
As Hannah and Collin continue their journey together, these photographs will forever serve as a beautiful reminder of their commitment and the emotional landscape of their relationship—joyful, free-spirited, and deeply in love.
