BEHIND OPEN IRIS VISUALS

MORE THAN JUST THE PERSON BEHIND THE CAMERA.

Car enthusiast. Photographer. Dad. Born and raised in Central Washington.

HOW IT STARTED

FROM CARS TO CAPTURING LIFE.

My interest in photography started with something I’ve always been passionate about—cars. What began as photographing builds and the local car scene eventually turned into something much bigger.

Over time, I started photographing portraits, couples and families, and realized I enjoyed capturing people and their stories just as much as I enjoyed capturing cars.

Today, Open Iris Visuals brings both sides together—automotive photography for people who are passionate about their builds and relaxed portrait photography for the moments and people worth remembering.

THE SECOND LENS

MEET NATALIE.

Natalie joined Open Iris Visuals as my second lens, bringing her own perspective and creativity to every session she’s part of.

Having a second photographer allows us to capture different angles, candid moments and details that might otherwise be missed—especially during larger sessions and events.

More than anything, I’m proud to have my daughter alongside me as Open Iris Visuals continues to grow.
