Welcome!

cory-mug-color-smile 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’ve 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.

Jen & Gregg at Pike Place Market & the University of Washington

I had a great time hanging out with Jen and Gregg taking portraits at Pike Place and the UW. Fun stuff.

A note for photographers. The image above and the image below were created using flash with Radiopoppers. The main advantage to Radiopoppers in my mind is the ability to change the manual flash settings on the remote flash from the on-camera flash. Saves walking and pushing buttons!

One more technical note for the photographer readers - All the images were processed in Lightroom and no commercial action sets were used.

Pike Place Market

Here are a couple random images from Pike Place Market. I hate being late, so I was running through the market (as best I could through the slow moving pedestrians) to make sure I was on time to my portrait session with Jen and Gregg. Therefore, I took two images. Amazingly enough, I liked them both!

That Bride Logo
My last post about my Seattle Weddings Online website, must have struck a nerve! I have heard from several people thanking me for putting it up (and other photographers letting me know they thought I was smart). Also, Jenna from That Bride has posted a feature on my efforts on her website! That bride is the semi-personal, semi-bride helper website/blog that features all sorts of great ideas about weddings and features lots of fantastic photographers.Check out the story here.
