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.

Internationally Award Winning Wedding Photographer!

Internationally Award Winning Wedding Photographer. Sounds good, right? I like it! :)

I took 17th overall in the International Society of Professional Wedding Photographers image contest. I was very happy with that considering I only entered five images! Below are the three that placed.

I love this image of Chinda & Cam's wedding at the Canal when the little best man stomped off!  It took first place in the Wedding Ceremony category.

Dante's Inferno Dog
What does it say about me that I relished Dante’s Chicken Andouille sausage dog almost as much as the gourmet food inside?

Here is one from Sandy

Cory:

We love the wedding albums! We dropped off the parent albums over the weekend and our parents LOVED all the pictures you took and how wonderfully they were laid out in the books. It made me so happy to see my Mom with a big smile on her face as she flipped through the book. Thank you so much for all of your hard work!

And here is one from Krissy:

We both absolutely love the pictures. We have gotten so many compliments from our friends about them, and about you as well. We’re looking forward to getting the albums squared away and starting to get pictures to put up in our new place!

Thanks!
