Andy and Margeaux have been so great to work with, from the first time we met in a pizza restaurant on the south hill of Spokane to their engagement photos, I have loved watching them interact, laugh together and just have a good time. I love the way Margeaux looks at him, the way the share stories, and the chemistry they have. On their wedding day, I had the chance to meet many of their friends, and that added so much more context to their relationship, and brought even more color to their personalities. I had so much fun with these two, and I’m so excited to be able to share their wedding photos, from their beautiful ceremony at St. Johns Cathedral in Spokane to the Spokane Club for their reception. We even were blessed with an amazing sunset in River Front Park. I hope you love these as much as I loved taking them.

Senior Photos: Tapanga Rojas

I met Tapanga several years ago when I had the chance to do her brothers senior photos - Ron. She was smart, cleaver and great at sports then, but now she’s really excelled. I loved our early morning shoot where we got to catch up a bit, get her in her element, and take some great senior photos out by her high school of Timberlake.

Spokane Wedding Photographer: Kory and Jackey

Kory and Jackey are two people with magnetic personalities. They are easy to talk to and have fun with. So I knew their wedding would be a blast. It was a blast in more ways than one too, not just with the people, or the amazing couple, but the blasting heat we were hit with that day (108 outside). Their wedding answers the question “what if no one wants to go outside? What kind of photos do you take then?”. The extreme heat was nothing to scoff at, but in the end I had a blast hanging out with these two, getting them drinks between photos, and just capturing the joy and excitement these two have for each other. I hope you love these photos, as I sure did love taking them.

North Idaho Engagement: Derek & Stephanie

Stephanie is someone I've never really known but always knew existed. What I mean by that is her (much) older brother and I went to school together in high school. He's my friend. We played basketball together. I had the privilege of photographing his wedding (shout out to Tony and Stephanie!) and while I always knew he had a much younger sister, when you're in high school and someone has a three year old baby sister you don't really think much of it. But now that three year old sister is getting married and they thought of me to photograph their wedding and I'm pumped for it! But one thing I loved about this engagement shoot was hearing how these two amazing people met.

Wedding at the Chateau Rive: Alex & Kristal

There’s something about black suites, bow ties, beautiful bridesmaids and a downtown setting that I absolutely love. It feels classy and timeless, and so I was pretty pumped when I found out Alex and Kristal were going for that look. I love how their photos turned out, and I loved being able to capture the many moments that happened on their wedding day - from their excellent first look, to all the fun everyone was having on the dance floor. I hope you love these photos as much as I do!

Rustic River Wedding: Trevor & Jackie

I was there when Trevor and Jackie met. It’s actually pretty incredible to think about. I was there when they met, I was there when they were engaged, and now I had the chance to be there when these two incredible people got married. This wedding was a highlight for me, I knew it would be the second they asked me to shoot their wedding. Not only are they incredibly beautiful people, but they are so kind, thoughtful, and fun people to be around. On top of that, so many of their friends I consider friends, and the whole group they are a part of I consider absolutely wonderful people. So being able to capture their wedding, and now getting to share those photos with you, is something I’ve been looking forward to in so many ways. I hope. You love them as much as I do, and I refuse to apologize for the number of photos that are in this blog.
