Setzer Family Photos in the Spokane Valley at Mirabeau Park

The first time I ever met this incredible family of four was the day we did their photos. And while we didn’t get to spend that much time together, it was clear pretty quickly that we had a bunch of things in common (even down to our college, which is very small!) There was no doubt in my mind that I really liked this family, and my only regret in walking away was that we couldn't have spent more time getting to know each other. That said, I am super excited that I get to share their family photos here, and I hope you love them!

The Wilson Family at Finch Arboretum

I still remember a lot about Jake and Nicole’s wedding. The people, the moments, the smiles, the location all seared into my memory. Since then i’ve had the chance to see them multiple times for family photos, and every time it’s a privilege. It isn’t hard to see that that they are high-class people, and this extends to their family as well. The great part about this family shoot was that I had the chance to see Jake’s side of the family again. I love how these early fall photos turned out, and i’m excited to share them with you!

Family Photos in Hayden: The Epperson Family

I feel like I speak about this often, but that’s really because of how much it impacts me. The idea that I could meet a couple before they get married, be there for their engagement photos, wedding photos, and then family photos - and then year over year watch that family grow, blows my mind. It’s such an honor, and it is so fun seeing these amazing people again. The Epperson’s were wonderful when they got married, and now as a family of five they continue to be that way. What an honor to be able to photograph this family, and i’m so excited to share these with you.

Family Photographer: The Slovarp Family in Farragut State Park

Clint and Melissa are two people I have enjoyed visiting with from the very day I met them. Getting to photograph their engagement, their wedding, meeting all their friends and family there, and watching one of the biggest moments of their lives. But to then be asked a little later to photograph their maternity photos and family photos was such an incredible honor. So when Melissa told me her whole family was coming out and they wanted to get some more family photos, the idea they thought of me again was such a huge compliment. I’m so excited to share these family photos. What an incredible group of humans these people are.

Coeur d'Alene Family Photographer: The Gilbert Family on Rose Lake

I had the chance to meet up with the Gilbert Family as they spent a mini-family reunion out here in North Idaho, specifically at Rose Lake. Not only did we get a picture-perfect day, at an awesome location, but we also happened to have one awesome family. People that were kind, easy to work with and fun to talk to. This family photo shoot was a lot of fun, and i’m excited to share these with you!

Spokane Photographers: The Wagstaff Family Photos

I had the privilege of meeting the Wagstaff family several years ago when I photographed one of their siblings’ weddings. This family was awesome then, and i’m happy to say they still are! They are even one more than when I saw them last. This family is truly an incredible one, kind, with beautiful kids, and so much joy. This was a great family photo shoot, and i’m excited to share it!
