Nova Rae Photography Wedding + Portrait + Pretty Thing Photographer with online Art Store Hey! Being a Capricorn, BEHIND a camera is my favorite place to be in the world.

My name is McKenna Nova Rae, owner of Nova Rae Photography and I want to thank you for visiting my page! I am an obsessive coffee drinker, dog mom, and travel as often as I can to anywhere I can.

Photography has been a passion of mine since I was young, and finally made something of it in 2010 when I started my own business. I am an on location natural light photographer specializing in Weddings

, and Portrait photography. My sessions are all about the moment. Capturing reactions, feelings, and the true expression of the soul to have as a keepsake for the years to come.

“Seattle Sunset Silhouette”

I was about to head home from a chilly maternity session when I found myself driving over a bridge. I looked over and was in awe over this beautiful sunset. Per usual fashion I make a quick U-turn and run back over this bridge to get the shot. Right as I did, this tug boat made its appearance, making it the perfect example of “right place at the right time”

I don’t think I’ve ever posted it on this page, but outside of photography I hold a position at The Seattle Times (non photography) This year I had the opportunity to use one of my personal photos on our internal materials. This one made the cut 🤓. See 2nd photo for the cover.

Creating art and letting it find its people is such a special feeling.

I don’t sell digital photos (for my art) but this one is available at www.novaraefineart.com for print.

There something about Fall in the PNW🍁

Pre wedding photo shoots are becoming more and more popular, and I am SO here for it!

A pre-wedding session is a relaxed, fun way to celebrate your story before the big day. It gives you the chance to connect with your photographer, get comfortable in front of the camera, and experience what it feels like to be photographed together — without the time pressure of a wedding timeline. These sessions create beautiful, natural images that can be used for save-the-dates, wedding websites, and personal keepsakes. Most importantly, they help you feel confident, natural, and fully present on your wedding day

Is there anything better than an Autumn wedding?
🍂💍 - I think not!

The first dance at your wedding is one of the most memorable moments of the day, and J & D sure made theirs fun! Their playful personalities, and the connection they have together truly made this an amazing moment to witness and photograph. Pop in some crisp air and falling leaves and there isn’t anything better!

A hush of magic stirs the air,
As twilight tangles in our hair.
Lanterns flicker, spirits play,
Guiding warmth through chill decay.

Shadows stretch but never scare,
For joy and wonder linger there.
Each crackling leaf, each scented flame,
Reminds us why October came.

It cloaks the world in mystery’s hue,
But somehow feels like home to you.
For in the dark, our hearts still gleam—
October makes the strange serene
