Seattle Wedding Photographer - Cory Parris

About Cory Parris Photography

I am a wedding and portrait photographer in Seattle. I create emotional photostories. I love photography. I love all the technical aspects of f-stops, shutter speeds, megapixels, photoshop, and lighting. I love the art of photography in the composition, angles, bokeh, point of view, and the way the technical changes the art. More than even the art, I love the expressions and emotions that people portray in their face, body language, and hand positions. Along the way, I have met a lot of great people, gotten to photograph some pretty cool things, and had a lot of fun. I am very happy to have chosen a career in photography. I also have an amazing wife, Leslie, and three fantastic children. Life is good. Have any questions? Call me - 425.637.8852

Featured by RedCart!

Saturday, January 19th, 2008

RedCart creates shopping carts for photographers nationwide and they have chosen me as one of two photographers to feature on their new cart system demo! How cool is that? It is always fun to be published, but most of the time it is the result of submitting images for consideration or entering some sort of contest (both of which I need to do more of – you don’t get considered if you don’t enter), but this was just kind of out of the blue for me that Tommy, the owner and a photographer, called me up and asked! You can see the demo here. It will also soon be online for my clients to use (but not yet). And here is a screenshot!

Albums & things

Thursday, January 17th, 2008

I have realized that I have not done a very good job of blogging about my finished products. So here’s a few quick images.

First swatches from a new album company for me. From what I’ve seen, they are offering fantastic, unique albums that also have the side benefit of having fantastic customer service.

I could I not go with an album company that uses leathers named things like “Biker Chic” and “Bank Heist”? I am currently planning an album for one of my couples with “Komodo Dragon” and “Passion”, which is a textured deep brown and a beautiful deep lipstick red.

This is Wendy and Matt’s album from a company that I’ve feature the last couple years. An 8×12 leather album (light blue) with an inset photos shown here with the two 6×8 parent duplicate albums with a metallic dustjacket.

This is a page from the book showing the stiff lay-flat pages.

This is a hardcover proof book, which is an option to substitute for the box full of proofs. It’s much more portable than carrying around a 12 pound box full of prints!

I’m going to take more photos of things before they leave the office from now on to share!

Heidi + Dan – Wedding!

Wednesday, January 16th, 2008

Heidi and Dan were married just after Christmas at the Inglewood Golf Club. I loved the Christmas trees in the way they added to the decor and the twinkling lights in the background of the photographs. It was also fun to see so many people whose wedding I’ve photographed. There were three couples there in addition to Heidi and Dan!

I love this image of the bridesmaids looking out the window. The color difference was so great that the outside looks completely blue.

I think image is pretty cool. I photographed them dancing together through the door while I was outside.

Melissa & Steve!

Tuesday, January 8th, 2008

Steve and Melissa are a great couple that had a small wedding in their home just before Christmas, but that is just the latest part of the story!

I first met Steve in the Spring of 2004 when I photographed Jurgen and Kendra’s wedding. Steve was the officiant. Here is a page from their album with Steve in it.

Then, in 2006 I photographed his daughter’s wedding. Here is Steve dancing with his daughter.

And just before Christmas I was honored to photograph his wedding with Melissa in their home. How cool is that?
