Virtually the whole Oregon coast is full of photo ops, but since you are starting in Seattle, north to south, Astoria is an old fishing town, Cannon Beach has amazing rock formations on the beach, with a park just to the north which has a great lookout, including Cannon Beach, and, further south, some very nice lighthouses, airplane museums, sand dunes, etc. You can drive from Seattle to Astoria in 3-4 hours and then meander south along the coast.
I agree with your assessment of Cannon Beach. I've made quite a number of good images there.
