North Idaho Photographers: Chaunce & Bella's Incredible North Idaho Wedding

Chaunce and Bella - and their family - are some amazing people. Nothing shows me this more than one very unique event (something i’ve never seen before) that happened at the end of their beautiful (and short) ceremony. After being pronounced husband and wife, they went for a dip - the proceeded to fall to the ground. So many couples would be mad, or embarrassed, but Chaunce and Bella (even while lying on the ground) Burt into laughter. it was beautiful in such an amazing way - because marriage doesn’t go as planned, things go wrong, and to see them go into it together, laughing, was amazing. I loved being at their wedding so much, and i’m so proud to be sharing these memories with you.

Spokane Wedding Photographers: Vincent & Danielle's Settlers Creek Wedding

There is something about Vincent and Danielle that I love - and I don’t just mean their kind hearts, great smiles and magnetic personalities - it’s something that isn’t easy to put my finger on. To put it simply, they are two people I loved getting to know, two people who I genuinely enjoyed their company. It’s one of those things that you can’t explain, but you know when you are with them. It isn’t just them either, it was their friends - they just made the day fun. Vincent and Danielle’s wedding was also incredibly beautiful, getting married at Settlers Creek (which is just outside of Coeur d’Alene Idaho), they had it all, from an incredibly beautiful ceremony in a field surrounded by tall grass, to a reception under the bistro lights with the silo’s in the background. So I hope you love these images, these memories, these pictures - because i’m pumped to share them with you!

Spokane Wedding Photographer: Zach & Tiffany's Spokane Mountain Wedding

A couple years ago I saw a photo of one of my friends from college. I thought “oh, this looks great, I wonder who photographed this” and then proceeded to stalk the photographer. We ended up meeting, and then getting to know each other. That photographer was Zach. If you didn’t know, he’s an incredibly talented landscape photographer (uh, look not further than his instagram) but beyond that, he’s an incredibly talented wedding photographer.

Coeur d'Alene Wedding: Rob & Christina's Wedding

Rob and Christina are a pretty amazing couple. They are so kind, and considerate, and we had so much fun getting to know them and spending time with them throughout the day. Even when it looked like it was about to rain (or in some cases, did rain) spirits were always high. Even their idea of heading over to the Davenport to get some more variety in photos was awesome (I mean, you’ll know when you see them… they are awesome). Anyway, i’ve known the Enders family for years, so being able to capture one of their sons, and just be there to get some great photos was a huge privilege for me. I hope you love them!

Coeur d'Alene Photographer: Jack & Lauren's CDA Resort Wedding

Jack and Lauren are awesome. They aren’t afraid to goof around, have fun, but also love those little moments. Between getting to know them during their engagement photos, to being there to capture all the little and amazing things that happened with them while they got ready to say “i’ll love you today, tomorrow, and for the rest of time.” The simple thing is, these two are kind people. Not just towards each other, but to those around them. You see it in how they talk with each other, how they treat their friends, and how their friends treat each other. Their CDA resort wedding was beautiful and unique, and i’m so excited that I can be the one to share the photos with you.

Spokane Wedding Photographer: Tony & Stephanie's Old-Time Style Foxwood House Wedding

20 years ago I met Tony. He was kind, thoughtful, loved sports and was always positive. He worked hard and always had pride in his family and what they did. It wouldn't be uncommon to hear about what his Dad was doing, or what they had started to do. We played basketball together. Then life happened. Tony did his thing, I did mine, and while I never once though of him as not my friend, we were both working on this thing called "life" that seemed so complicated back then, but we never really knew what that meant. Fast forward roughly 19 years I get a call from my friend Tony (yes, I still had his number in my phone). Turns out, he was getting married to an incredible and beautiful woman named Stephanie.
