I’m often asked whether I shoot landscapes living in Montana…the answer is no…I prefer to have my photos filled with life!  From the intense beautiful colors, to the creative posing and raw emotion captured in my images…my photos are anything but lifeless.  Each photo is a vivid reminder of the profound effect an image can have on someone's life.

You know your family and loved ones better than anyone, and it's important to you that they feel relaxed and totally at ease with whomever you choose to photograph them.  You're looking for a photographer with a studio that's inviting to everyone, instead of intimidating, where they'll be able to have fun and be themselves in front of the camera because you know those are the times when they produce the most authentic and meaningful portraits.  I'm just a guy LOVES to take beautiful photos and feel everyone deserves epic pictures of their loved ones...let me take yours! 

I'm extremely blessed to be able to do what I love in the place that I love!  I owe it all to my amazing wife Jennifer, who has inspired everything I do and continues to be my biggest supporter, which is probably why I love weddings so much...I LOVE love!
