Bio: I grew up inseparable from a paintbrush and canvas in hand. I studied art and oil painting in college and throughout Europe.

Bio: Photography has been my passion for 20 years. I studied the fine arts in college while shooting for the newspaper and yearbook. After a master's degree, I taught English and humanities at the collegiate level in Washington State and Arizona. Later, I lived in Spain for several years, where I focused on architectural photography and photojournalism-style street photography.
After those experiences, I decided to follow my passion by starting my own wedding photography business in Spokane.
I bring my diversity of interests to my wedding photography. I aim to capture all the essential moments of the wedding that the bride and groom can relive whenever they look at their photographs. I have been married for 17 years and have a 5-year old son.
Bio: Photography, and particularly photojournalism, has been part of my life's story since I started reading National Geographic as a child. The depth of emotion, and the unyielding truth of photojournalism resonated with me as I grew up, and I began travelling, shooting and most importantly, living. The work of Steve McCurry, Tom Stoddart, James Nachtwey, and many others are a constant inspiration to me. As an English Lit major, I realized, more completely, the power and importance of the story. My passion is to learn and tell peoples' stories.
