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 […]
Gabby and Eric got married at Beacon Hill in Spokane on September 14, 2025 — and as a Spokane documentary wedding photographer, days like this one are exactly why I do this work. Seven years together. A proposal on a nature walk with their two dogs. A bride wearing her grandmother’s garter. And two people […]
Tristan and Wyatt got married on May 30, 2026, at Schmidt Cattle Co. Events in Mead, Washington. As a Spokane documentary wedding photographer, I live for days like this one — 116 acres of open ranch land, Mt. Spokane on the horizon, and two people who were completely, genuinely themselves all day long. How They […]
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 […]
Some venues stop you mid-scroll. The Wild Rabbit is one of them. Twenty acres of meadows, forest, and mountain views about 30 minutes north of Spokane — it’s the kind of place that makes couples exhale the moment they arrive. I’ve photographed weddings here and I keep coming back to it in conversations with couples […]
