Nathan and Allison's Spring Farragut Engagement

They met playing volleyball. Really you can thank their mutual friends who continued to invite Allison to volleyball even though she kept saying no. But they really wanted her to meet this mysterious man named Nathan. So one day, she came. Nathan told me that when he first saw her he said in his head "she's new" - but not a "oh, cool, a new person to play" but rather "woah, she's new, I definitely would like to get to know her…" if you know what I mean. That said, that first day they never talked. Or the second day.

Engagement Photography: Cody & Melissa's Post Falls Engagement

They first met at Walmart. But that's not really where their story begins, as the first time they were put in contact was over the app "Lots of Fish" or something like that. Cody messaged Melissa something along they lines of "hey" - something Melissa would not normally respond to. But after looking at his profile, she did. They would chat for about a week before he would call her. The calling would happen more frequently, and more often, over the weeks until about a month after they met, Melissa said she wanted to meet Cody.

Spokane Wedding Photography Review: Andy & Margeaux

From photographing Andy & Margeaux’s engagement photos to their wedding photos last year… I have loved getting to know them and seeing the love they have for each other. So, when I saw that Margeaux left a super kind review, I knew I had to share it! I hope you enjoy looking back at such a special moment in their lives as much as I do. :)

Photographers in Spokane: Ted & Sara's Beautiful Davenport Wedding

From the beginning, Ted and Sara are two people I have genuinely enjoyed getting to know. From our snow covered hike for their engagement photos, to one of the most unique moments i’ve ever experienced at a wedding, Ted and Sara have been a joy. Something i’m sure is no new news to you. But for me, as I have gotten to know them, their family and friends, see their passions and likes, it has truly been something I have enjoyed. I will always think fondly on the sunset session we did, where the Lilac Parade was about to start downtown Spokane and we were walking down the middle of the road - An empty road surrounded by people cheering our Air Force pilot. So many good moments, laughs, smiles and people, and i’m so excited that I get to share a glimpse of those moments with. you.

Stunning Photos of Noah and Amanda's Wedding at Montevale Event Center in Spokane

If you read Noah and Amanda’s engagement blog, it shouldn’t’ be a secret that i’m a fan of these two. They are kind thoughtful, and clearly love each other. But there’s more than that, it’s their families and friends, it’s the people they choose to surround themselves with that makes these two so magnetic, so likable. So being able to be there at their incredible Spring wedding at the Montvale Event Center, downtown Spokane, was something I absolutely loved. From the little moments to the big ones. There was life, beauty, laughter, and so many great chances to take great photos. I hope you love them as much as I do!

Wedding Photography: Josh & Solina's Historic Davenport Wedding

Josh and Solina are two people I have really enjoyed meeting. From the first time I met Solina over coffee, she was engaged, with a bright smile and easy to get along with attitude, to the first time I met Josh during our engagement photos, where we talked about running, his (basically) broken toe, and of course, him and Solina. So when their Historic Davenport wedding rolled around I was excited to see them again, take pictures of these two beautiful people, but also meet their families, friends, and get to know them more. I’m pleased to say I had a blast. They are kind, engaging and thoughtful, and I can say the same for their families. I loved every minute of my time with them, and i’m so excited that I get to share their wedding photos with you now.
