Golden Hour Portraits at The Olson Mansion in Maple Valley, WA

The Olson Mansion in Maple Valley is a wedding and events venue one hour from Seattle, and it’s my favorite hidden gem photoshoot location. During the spring, the grassy hills are a vibrant green. During late summer, they turn to beige. I love how no matter what time of year it is, they become so magical when lit up by golden hour!

Pink, one of my favorite colors, played a central role in the overall look. I incorporated soft pastel hues and bold fuchsia tones to create a vibrant and visually striking ensemble. From flowy dresses to statement accessories, each piece was carefully selected to complement the dreamy atmosphere of the Olson Mansion. You can watch the behind-the-scenes video of this photoshoot to get an idea of how I work!
