Fall in Boise provided a colorful backdrop for Katelyn's Senior Portraits. Between the parks and the urban landscapes of downtown, we collaborated on a number of different backdrops and poses. Working with Katelyn for the afternoon was a blast! I love spending time with the young people around here, hearing all their dreams and expectations for the future is a great joy to me.
I remember setting up shoots for fun when I was little. Gathering all I could of dolls and stuffed animals, flowers, pets, anything I could, to take pictures. Eventually I had to start saving my allowance so I could buy and develop film with my own money, as my parents would no longer process the many rolls of film I went through.
I found another love for photography through the darkroom in high school. Spending all of my free time in the red light, watching latent images appear onto paper with great delight.
After high school, I moved to Wyoming to pursue my first degree in commercial photography from Northwest College, in Powell, Wyoming. My love for the craft only grew more intensely.
Once finished in Wyoming, I worked as an assistant and studio manager in Boise for a year, and then moved to California to pursue my second degree.
I graduated from Brooks Institute of Photography in March of 2006.
I am passionate about the images I create, and am so thankful to be blessed with the eye I have been given.
