This Lavender Manor wedding kicked off on July 25. If you know me, you know I was thrilled the second Sammie told me “we are so bad at taking photos.” That’s basically my favorite sentence to hear from a couple. It means I get to do what I love most: catch them being themselves instead […]
As a maternity session photographer Spokane couples come back to for real, unposed moments, I have to say this one was especially fun — by the time Aeriell was about 35 weeks along, I’d already been with her and Sam for their elopement at Farragut and the afternoon we found out Yumi-ko was a girl. […]
Natalie wanted flowers everywhere for this session, and once I knew why, it made perfect sense: she and Caden are naming their daughter Violet. So a maternity session at The Glasshouse on Monroe — forty acres of gardens, greenhouses, and wildflower fields outside Spokane — wasn’t just a pretty backdrop. In fact, it was the […]
There’s a moment early in every couple’s wedding-planning conversation where someone asks: are you going to do a first look? It seems like a small logistical question. It’s not. The first look vs. traditional reveal decision shapes your entire timeline, what your day feels like, and what kind of photos you end up with. It’s […]
One of the most common questions I get from newly engaged couples is where to find good engagement session locations near Spokane. My honest answer: almost anywhere can work if the timing is right and the couple is comfortable, but some spots consistently deliver something special — good light, breathing room, and enough variety that […]
Maya and Kyle’s Mukogawa Fort Wright wedding happened on June 20, 2026, at what’s officially named Mukogawa U.S. Campus in Spokane, with the ceremony under the Arbor and the reception in Tsutakawa Memorial Hall. Twelve years together, a proposal they’d both seen coming, and a day built entirely out of personal touches. This is exactly […]
If you’ve spent any time looking for a wedding photographer in Spokane, you’ve probably hit a wall of “contact me for pricing.” I get why photographers do it — it opens a conversation — but I also know how frustrating it is when you just want to know if someone is even in your budget […]
Zili and Logan met at WSU sophomore year through a mutual friend — each quietly deciding the other was nice and weird in a good way. Seven years later they’re getting married a few miles from where they first crossed paths. Logan proposed at the overlook in Browne’s Addition, the first neighborhood they shared after […]
If you’ve spent any amount of time looking at wedding photographers, you’ve probably seen the word documentary thrown around. Sometimes it means “candid.” Sometimes it means “we’ll just walk around and take pictures.” Sometimes it’s a vibe word that doesn’t really mean anything specific. This post is the long answer — what documentary wedding photography […]
You Hate Having Your Photo Taken. That’s Totally Fine. A letter to every couple who cringes at the word “photoshoot.” If you’ve ever wondered how to feel natural in your wedding photos when you don’t even like having your picture taken — you’re in the right place. Here’s something I hear in almost every inquiry […]
