No two grads are alike, and your portraits shouldn't be either. From choosing the perfect campus locations to planning outfits and incorporating your hobbies or interests, every detail is customized to you.

An Experience You'll Remember
The best grad portraits come from genuine moments, not rushed sessions. We'll take our time, explore multiple locations if you'd like, and create an experience that's just as memorable as the images themselves.

EASTERN washington university graduation pictures Cheney WA Photographer
Nate did graduation photos for our daughter at EWU. He did an amazing job! He took her to some beautiful locations on campus that really captured the college/graduation vibe she was looking for. He did a great mix of traditional poses and fun action shots. Nate was a good sport and even let her take some pictures with her dog. He was so easy to work with, he made her feel comfortable and captured some beautiful moments. We got the pictures back in record time and they were all so incredible that we had to buy them all! Nate was awesome to work with and we will definitely be returning customers!

Nate recently took my college graduate photos here at EWU and he was awesome and definitely worth every penny. Booking with him was the easiest and smoothest process ever !!! During the shoot he was very knowledgeable about the different locations to take the pictures as well as the poses which was very helpful. I received my photos very quickly and they came out amazinggg like top quality , I am truly in love with every single photo. If you’re looking for a photographer for any event definitely hire Nate ! I will be recommending him to all of my friends.

Nate has done my daughter's graduation pictures at WSU and just did my son's pictures at EWU and he is amazing. He knows the best spots and knows how to caption the personality of who is photographing. Would highly recommend him!

Nate was super awesome to work with! He has a great eye and was able to give me good tips as a person who is not very good at posing. We went out on a windy day and he was able to work around the obstacles and still give me awesome pictures!

I never really had a clear idea on who I wanted as my photographer for my grad photo shoot. After some Google searching, I found Nate and looked over his work. Holy dang, his college grad photos are great!
I was sold, emailed him, and booked a date with him. I am usually an awkward person to interact with but Nate was so great to talk to and so fun to work with! And man, does he know what he's doing!
Whatever magic he did, the pictures came out AMAZING and I didn't realize how great I look at certain poses he had asked me to do! He was patient, easy to talk to, and so knowledgeable at his stuff.. I HIGHLY recommend him to capture your grad memories! Thank you so much for being so awesome, Nate! 😊

Nate did an amazing job during my session and took some fantastic pictures. He was very kind, patient, and respectful throughout the process. I had a grad session but didn’t have a specific vision in mind, and he did a great job of suggesting ideas and giving me guidance. I really appreciate how well he communicated directions during the shoot and I also appreciated how accommodating he was of my requests and preferences. He did an excellent job taking and editing the pictures. I had so many amazing shots to choose from! He is an excellent choice for anyone looking for grad pictures.

I am here to help you get the best of the best and nothing less, you're welcome! I typically shoot 200-400 images in a 60 minute session. Of those, you will get 35+ of the best images to choose from. I am a no stress guy and this keeps you from getting a headache trying to find the perfect shots where you are in focus, eyes open, and looking good. Choosing the best images only also allows me to do a much better job of editing than photographers who edit all the pictures.
There are three parts to this question. First, full resolution means images will be delivered at the same resolution my camera produces minus any minimal cropping that may occur to make the images look their absolute best. Second, every photo goes through 40+ editing check points before delivered. Edits range from color and exposure adjustments to cleaning up temporary facial imperfections. Thirdly, images are delivered to you via an online gallery where you can download images and have access to my professional print lab. Just in case I need to say it, your downloaded and printed images are watermark free.
You bet I do! There is no way around it, professional photos look best printed by professionals who care! I personally choose my photo labs because they consistently check the color calibration on their printers and use high quality papers and inks intended to hold their color and structural integrity best over time.
