Braden & Rachel | Bear Valley, Alaska
It is not often that I have the opportunity to photograph my sister, Rachel. She flew out of the nest not long after I did, but while my adventures brought me back to Alaska, her's have taken her south, and far east, to Pennsylvania, Ohio, and for the moment, Washington D.C.
This year, she flew home for Christmas and brought Braden with her.
Jenny & Andrew Become the Lowds | Kodiak, Alaska
When it comes to describing the love that Andrew and Jenny share, I don't even know where to begin. It is a comfortable sort of love. Warm and inviting, full of light and laughter. The kind that draws you in in an instant and makes you feel as though you have known them for ages. This story is about that kind of love, not just between two people, but within a whole family.
Anna + Levi | A Styled Alaskan Elopement
This collaboration just kind of fell together in the best way possible.
My friend Jess Hunter was visiting for just a few days, so we kept things simple. She brought a stunning gown from The Dress Theory, and I grabbed a couple of my very favorite people. (Who also happen to be the most gorgeous couple EVER.) We threw together a bouquet in my kitchen and headed south toward Byron Glacier, where the foggy mountains were even more dramatic and mysterious than we had hoped.
At Home in AK | Dipnetting 2014
Every July, thousands gather at the mouth of the Kenai river, twenty foot long nets, coolers, and families in tow. They stand side by side in the water, chest deep, as the sockeye salmon return home.The people present are as colorful as the tents that pack the beach. Every ethnicity, age, and walk of life are represented. Everyone is friendly, generous, and happy to lend a helping hand. This isn't combat fishing, it's a party and we're all here for the same reason--to fill our freezers for the winter.
