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.

Sneha & Tarak Wedding at the Bellevue Westin!

I had a fabulous time at Sneha and Tarak’s wedding. The Westin in downtown Bellevue was beautiful. I also my favorite little assistant (my daughter) along for the first part of the day. We had a blast!

First Dance

The picture of the day this time is Miriam and Dean during their first dance at the Woodmark Hotel in Kirkland. You can just feel the emotion from this image in her expression, body language and hand position.

New Wedding Sample Album

I just received this beautiful new sample album that I can’t wait to show my prospective clients. It is a leather bound album with very thick, heavy pages. The leather colors are passion with a stripe of suspicion, which I think is hilarious! Let me know if you want to come see it in person.

Seattle Weddings Online

I bought this web domain a while back that I thought could be useful. Seattle Weddings Online. It seemed like something I should pick up and do. So I asked some of my brides to write a story about their engagement, courtship or wedding adventure. I got a few responses that I thought were very cool, but not as much as I wanted. So, I’ve decided to not only have the bride’s stories but also venue and vendor showcases over at Seattle Weddings Online. So, check it out. Write a story that I can post, recommend a vendor from your wedding for a featureor leave a comment!
