Albert Dickson - Beautiful work Nate. I bump into your page on OSP and linked to you Web Site. Strong portfolio Sir. I was surprised to see from this blog post that you have fallen not too far from the tree. Mom is a Wedding Shooter! Wow, that is very cool. It runs through your veins. Anyway, I would be very interested in getting your feedback about your Creative Live experience and how it has impacted your photography. Drop me a note sometime or perhaps we can chat over coffee.

Life Thru the Macro: Home Sweet Home…

As displayed above, Nate and I took this trip to Mexico FULL THROTTLE. Nate is shown in one of his classic photo ‘poses’ on the streets of Old Puerto Vallarta on one of our exploits of the city. It was vintage… it was classy… It was full of smells, sights, sounds ALL unique to this…

Messy Jess - ah! I love it! you probably don't remember me – I spent a week with your family on St Thomas and loved every minute of it – your car, the island, your family…this picture brought back so many memories. I love your mom and dad dearly and it has been so much fun following your pictures. I LOVE your pictures.

Greetings from Guadalajara!

It’s been an amazing last few days. Luisa and I are in Guadalajara for a wedding shoot which was yesterday and it was amazing! Everyone has been so unbelievably generous. Today we’re just relaxing a little bit, and then taking the trip out to Puerto Vallarta which we’re very excited about. The night we got…

Life Thru the Macro: Viva Mexico y Feliz Navidad!!

As I speak, Nate and I are en route to spending our first Christmas together out of the country. It won’t be the first time for either of us, but it is always strange to spend Christmas in a hot tropical paradise when we are both used to the WHITE of snow with carolers, hot…

Brett+Julie: Seattle Engagement

The first time I met Julie, we met downtown with her sister to discuss wedding photography for Brett and Julie’s wedding next July. She brought along a few photo books that she and Brett had made, which I loved! The first things I noticed about Julie and Brett were that they loved to travel as…

Kate Perkes - AWESOME pic Nate! Can't wait for the Rest. For some reason made me really homesick. Love the Grain too.

Trysha - Ben Chrisman is amazing! I actually knew him waaaay back in college some 12 years ago. I used to date one of his friends and he went to high school with my best friends older brother and he shot her little sisters wedding back in 05. Love his stuff! I could look at his images/archives all day.

Life Thru the Macro: Aroma Obsession…

Nate could LIVE off the smell of coffee alone, which is completely odd since he doesn’t even drink it. Featured here, we have Nate visiting Seattle to do a phenomenal engagement shoot [images to be revealed soon], and at the top of the Space Needle, he got this picture taken. It made me smile. He…
