Why hire me over anyone else?

Because I make you so comfortable in front of the camera, the depth of your feelings for each other shines through.

"I never knew quite how much my husband loved me until I saw your pictures."
Connie Whitener

Because I have 26 years of experience.
• I am calm and unflappable, and able to soothe you, as well.
• I can solve--or prevent--many different problems with ease.
• I have worked at most of the wedding venues in the greater Seattle area.
• I am truly a pro at handling logistics.

Because I bring the eye of an artist and a storyteller to your wedding. My fine art photography has hung in galleries throughout the Northwest, and 4 books of my photographs have been published. Your pictures will not look like anyone else's.

Because I book only one wedding per day. You have my full attention.

Because my prices are reasonable, and include generous amounts of time and images--and an engagement portrait. I also offer a variety of archival albums.

Because I come to your wedding to serve you, not to boss you around or draw attention to myself. If we do arranged portraits, they are light-hearted and expressive, not stiffly posed. During the ceremony and the reception I am almost invisible, working behind the scenes to capture moments that can't be posed. You will see me only if you are looking for me.

Why me?
