hey! i’m brian,

I’m a sushi loving, scenery searching, sometimes overthinking, world traveling, the Office quoting, paddle boarding, storm chasing, pickleball playing, music making, Jesus worshipping, God fearing, husband and father. Life is full of adventure and the little details are exactly what inspires me to capture it all from behind the camera.

It’s true… but seriously, God’s creation is so awe inspiring and I’ve been blessed enough to get to travel around the world with my incredible wife to see some of it. I’ve lived in Germany, Virginia, Utah, and now Idaho is home. I have also had the privilege to travel around to many countries across Europe, like Luxembourg, Belgium, France, Italy, Netherlands, Ireland, United Kingdom, Switzerland, Spain, Austria, Croatia, and even places outside Europe like Kenya, Taiwan, the Philippines, and more.

After my wife and I got married in 2013, we embarked on our Air Force journey which led us to our first assignment in Germany. We spent 4 incredible years in Europe traveling around to various countries that were a short drive, train ride, or cheap flight away. We became parents and my stay-at-home dad life began. Eventually our family grew again shortly after arriving in the Washington D.C. / Metropolitan Area of Northern Virginia where we were at the Pentagon for 3 years. I attended a small business, fellowship program in Georgetown for military spouses and quickly became well sought after in the area for photographing military events, but more popularly known for my event work shot inside the National Archives Museum inside the Rotunda room where the Declaration of Independence, Constitution, and Bill of Rights are held on display. After our time there the military sent us to the small college town of Logan, Utah for 2 years, where my wife served at U.S.U. as an instructor and recruiter. It was there that I fell in love with the incredible starry filled night skies, showcasing our beautiful Milky Way Galaxy, as well as snow covered mountains, endless hiking trails in the canyons, beautiful rivers, amazing fall colors, the best skiing on the most beautiful powdered mountains, and some of the most stunning wildlife to photograph. We also started the adoption process for the Philippines once we arrived in Utah. After 11 years of service and once we finished our 2 year stint at Mountain Home Air Force Base, our military journey finally ended. We now call Idaho and the entire Treasure Valley our home and love all of the adventures we’ve had thus far.

2 Corinthians 5:17 - “Therefore, if anyone is in Christ, he is a new creation. The old has passed away; behold, the new has come.”


what to expect

Before anyone decides to invest in my services I always want to make sure that there is nothing left to interpretation or guessing. Here is what you can expect when working with a full service photographer, print artist, and family archivist.

Consultation Meeting

We discuss the purpose, as well as goals for your photos. Then we will go over the specifics like where and when it will take place and who will be present. Following that I will bring out samples to be seen and held in person. I go over the features of each sample and how much they cost. Then I will take any additional notes about the session like photo requests and/or if any samples received interest. I take a little bit of time to mention all of my services that I offer. One of those services is if you love the product samples I showed you so much, you have the ability to take past images you may have had captured and get those printed in the same archival quality products I bring to the table, so that everything in your home lasts and matches. Finally we end with a contract for signing and once signed, I collect my booking fee. Now you are booked!

Photo session

We meet at the determined time and location with everyone ready to have their photos taken. As we begin to explore the area and capture photos along the way, I will go through any previously requested photos or groupings and be sure to capture them first. Of course all the while having a lot of fun :)

Once our time is up or our overall goals for the shoot have been met, we will make our way back and leave.

reveal / ordering appointment

About 2-3 weeks after the photo session, we will meet again and I will have a beautiful slideshow with music ready for viewing. Once the slideshow is over, we will go through and begin selecting your favorite photos. After that we will discuss how you want to print your favorites, their sizes, and where they will go or if you decide to purchase them as digitals instead too. For wall art and albums, I can create mock-ups to help visualize how they’ll look in their desired locations or final form. A shareable online gallery of the session will be available after the first order is placed.

Clients will receive discounted or complimentary high-res digital copies of everything, including the slideshow, once their order reaches a certain amount. After payment is received, the order is then placed.

delivery day!

When your prints arrive, I inspect and double check them before packing them up and hand delivering them to your home. If you ordered wall art, I give you the option of hanging it yourselves, otherwise I will install it for you. The online gallery is available for an entire year so you or other family can order anything else in the near future. Any future orders outside of the local area I serve in will be drop-shipped to the provided address, but any additional local orders will be hand delivered by myself.
