Anniversary photo ideas + locations in Seattle
Anniversary photos are about the life you've built since the wedding. Some couples go back to where it started; others dress up and make an evening of it. Either way, the place should feel personal.
Seattle puts skyline viewpoints, saltwater beaches, Japanese gardens and old industrial landmarks within twenty minutes of each other. The catch is crowds and changeable weather, so the best sessions pair one iconic spot with a quieter one nearby.

Plan it like a photographer.
- Go back to where it began — your first date, your proposal spot, your wedding venue.
- Bring something from the wedding: the veil, the bouquet ribbon, the vows, the album.
- Book the session before a dinner reservation and make the evening the gift.
- Spring brings cherry blossoms and azaleas, and September into mid-October often has the warmest, driest light of the year.
