Idaho intimate lakeside vow renewal.

Idaho Elopement

January 5, 2023

Love is meant to be celebrated in all seasons of life!

Rip and Lulu love the Inland Northwest and Spokane area where they live. They decided to have a tiny celebration and photographs to reflect their love for each other and Washington State.
I met Rip and Lulu at Honeysuckle beach and docks where gorgeous mountains were shadowing in the background. The docks and lake were quiet and secluded, the perfect place to share their intimate celebration.

Along this majestic lake they recommitted their love to each other with rings, and words of devotion. Some bubbly was popped to toast their celebration, of course no celebration is complete without a rose and sparkle frosted cake and some sugar kisses.

There is something to be said about the intention and love surrounding a new journey in life with a new found love. R&L we’re just the sweetest couple to photograph and I was honored to share a part of their love story.

This couple was so natural together and their love for each other was expressed in their eyes. Strolling along the tree lined path with its natural arch talking and sharing memories as the sun began to set they shared kisses, hugs and a swoon worthy dip.

The sky began to turn to deep shades of blue and pink so we decided to bring out some old rustic looking lanterns. R&L walked along the lake shore hand in hand carrying the lanterns at their sides and stumbled upon a gorgeous old bridge; sometimes wandering aimlessly will bring you to the most unexpected but beautiful locations!

As the evening became darker the glow of the lights from the Coeur d’Alene Resort painted dancing lights along the shoreline.

The warm glow of the lanterns, the pristine lake and amazing bridge we discovered captured the true essence of the Inland Northwest.
Thank you R&L for allowing me to celebrate your Spokane elopement with you.
