I had the honor of photographing this darling couple. Austin & Kaitlyn met at church when they were about 10! I had so much fun being part of their special day! She is STUNNING!
I love to find a new use for old things. I love my coffee hot. I love the sound of "I love you's" from my daughters more than any sound in the world. I love the man in my life. I love collaborative creativity. I love hanging out of helicopters. I love to sew, to knit, to garden, and to read. I love to look at the photography of Martha Stewart Living, but rarely read the articles. I hate snakes, spiders and rodents. I've always been known for my hair. I'm a Nikon girl.
I often do too much, too quickly. If epileptic-clicking the mouse doesn't fix the problem, then it's beyond me. I work hard, play hard, and pray hard. Life is so good.
I've been a professional industrial photographer for 15 years. Born and raised in Walla Walla (and graduating from Whitman), my first job out of college was as a photography assistant for Coffey Communications. I learned on the job how to shoot with a Hassleblad and 35mm cameras while shooting slide film. There was no "snap" and see what you got in those days. I learned how to use a light meter and strobes to get good exposure. Then you'd have to wait a week and a half to see if you got what the art director wanted. It was good training. I was there for nearly 4 years.
Then I got married and moved to the Atrocities (where I swore I would NEVER live while growing up). I got a job at Imageworks Media Group and have been there ever since. When I started, photography was not an offered service-line. Together, we developed and made it into a successful part of the business. I'd like to take credit for that. And I love my job. I love that it's like one big field trip after another; never really knowing what I'll be shooting from week to week. Whether it be doctor portraits for the local hospitals, aerials of wind farms, a trek out to some decomposing building at Hanford, or riding along a corn harvester in a field (pictured above). It's an adventure.
I love to shoot and I'D LOVE TO SHOOT YOU.
