Hey, I’m Nate! I specialize in dramatic sports photography in Spokane for individual athletes and teams—from youth sports and high school seniors to college athletics.
As a parent, I’m always on the sidelines cheering for my kids and their teammates. Watching their strength, passion, and confidence sparked my desire to create images that match that same energy and intensity.
I’m excited to offer athletes bold, eye-catching photos using creative lighting, cinematic smoke and gels —images that make athletes feel powerful and confident; like a superstar.
Natural light sports sessions currently shown as I am venturing into dramatic sports photography using cinematic lighting, smoke and color gels. Ask about discounts through March 19th, 2026 as I fill out this new portfolio.

I recently had my grad pictures done with Nate, and it was such an amazing experience to end the year with. I had full trust in him to guide me through the session and he didn’t disappoint. He was so welcoming and made me feel proud of my accomplishments at WSU! Nate worked so hard to make sure my pictures were both memorable and of the best quality. I love my photos and look forward to cherishing them for a life time!

Nate FAR exceeded our expectations! The photos are gorgeous, and his prices are very reasonable. He is extremely easy to work with and provided photo shoot advice/clothing suggestions, etc. Digital prints were sent very quickly, including his sending a sample preview the same evening when asked. Would definitely choose Nate again for any graduation, wedding or other special photo shoot!!!

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!

I want to start this review by saying that Nate is an absolutely fantastic photographer, and I will be recommending him to all of my WSU friends graduating in the next couple years!
I had never gotten professional photography done before, so I was a little nervous about how to pose, what to wear, really anything surrounding the shoot. Nate greeted me with a smile on his face and was incredibly personable, regardless of my nerves. He helped guide me through the entire shoot, using a variety of locations around WSU's campus and took some amazing shots that had my parents and I ecstatic! I had an amazing experience with Nate, and can safely say he is one of the best in the business!

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!

The experience with Nate was amazing! I really appreciated how we didn’t spend too much time in one place so I got lots of different background options for my graduation photos! He was also exactly on time and even went over my allotted time slot to ensure I got all of the photos I wanted!

Sessions can be held at your home field, school or club gym, local park, stadium, or any location that fits your sport and overall vision.
During the winter months or when weather is a factor, all sessions should be conducted indoors.
In most cases, the client is responsible for securing the location for the session.
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.
