When Emma and Donovan envisioned their engagement session, they wanted something truly unique, capturing the essence of local beer and bar vibes right in the heart of Palmer, Alaska. What better way to do this than by choosing the iconic locations of Bleeding Heart Brewery and Palmer Bar! Located in the serene landscapes of Alaska, Bleeding Heart Brewery provided the perfect backdrop for this chic engagement session.

Emma & Donovan’s Chic Engagement Session
Emma and Donovan were all about embracing the local beauty, and both locations delivered just that. The Bleeding Heart Brewery exudes a laid-back vibe, making it a favorite for both locals and visitors. Add to that the lively atmosphere of Palmer Bar, and you have the perfect combination for a fun and memorable engagement session. We used a mix of flash and no-flash photography to capture both the intimate and lively moments. Giving the photos a genuine party vibe that truly reflects the couple’s personality. Switching between the two locations allowed us to capture a variety of scenes and moods. At Bleeding Heart Brewery, the couple enjoyed sampling some of the finest local brews. Surrounded by the beautiful rustic decor of the brewery. Over at Palmer Bar, the ambiance shifted to a more relaxed yet vibrant setting. Where Emma and Donovan could let loose and enjoy the lively atmosphere.
The combination of natural and artificial lighting helped create photos that reflect not only their love but also the essence of the locations.
