Thank you for a beautiful 37th Annual Boise Pride Festival!

POSTS STORIES REELS TAGGED

these AMAZING grooms dreamed a giant party with a side of wedding. so that's exactly what kind of wedding they threw. 💜

two perfect stylish purple suits. custom cocktails. INCREDIBLE food & a fine dining experience none of their guests will forget. a real red carpet rolled out for a grand entrance. one packed restaurant @thelivelyboise in downtown Boise. & absolutely no interest in turning their wedding into a cliche or production.

here's what I want more couples to know: you don't have to choose between gorgeous wedding photos you'll cherish forever AND actually enjoying your wedding.

you can prioritize the incredible meal, spend an extra hour at cocktail hour, make your favorite people the center of the experience, and still walk away with photos that feel thoughtful, artful, and completely you.

and that's where my personal approach as a photographer comes in.

I'm not going to disappear into a corner & hope for the best, but I'm also not going to turn your wedding into an all day long exhausting photoshoot.

I'll provide gentle direction when you need it, take things off your plate when I can, and make room for the moments you couldn't have planned even if you tried.

because the goal isn't to manufacture a wedding that looks incredible in photos.

the goal is to create a wedding that feels incredible to be at, then make photos that bring you right back to the memories.

& these two? they absolutely understood the assignment. 🍸

Just thinking about what a great time we had at Pride this year!

Big thank you to our staff and especially our volunteers so showing up and making it happen. Unfortunately we were so busy giving mini acupuncture treatments we forgot to take very many pictures.

How busy you ask?
Get ready for it…

We gave 100 free acupuncture treatments at Pride!!!

It was so much fun to chat with people about community acupuncture and make new friends.

We look forward to see you all in the clinic soon!

Surprise warmup performance by the queen herself all the way from England, the stunning @junobirch 👄

Between jamming to the The Sims and awkward lounge music she found herself in weird old Boise ✨

More to come from her evening show!

Being proud of who I am, especially in the city we live in, is extremely important. Every day, even in the year 2026, we are fighting for our visibility, our individual right to expression, our protections from hatred, and our ability to become the most authentic version of ourselves.
-
-
-
Dressing up in a skirt and disco patterns, using two full bottles of pink hair dye, and smothering myself in body glitter are all things I do extremely intentionally. 🫵 I am not always in an insane, flamboyant, “gay” outfit. I am so much more than what I present externally when I so wish. I go to work, I get food, spend time with friends, exercise, relax, go to family celebrations, vacations, trips, and dates… I am the same as them. Yet so many people see someone like me, expressing themselves, or being in love, or becoming themselves for a night or a lifetime… and cannot help but express their distaste and hatred for our authenticity.

This weekend, I was given so many compliments and lovely wishes by members of my community. I was shown love and I was shown acceptance. I was also shown malice, and anger, and hurt from others outside of my circle: accosted on the street, yelled at by a stranger in a car, or scowled at by a passerby on the sidewalk. A group of men my age, wearing baseball hats and tennis shoes, threatened me. However, let me tell you all ONE thing I know to be certainly true:
-
-
-
They will never, not once in their life, happen to find the joy and love I’ve found doing exactly what I’m doing. I get to look this crazy and this exciting, because I’ve fought for 24 years to get to this spot. And if an outfit is driving them that crazy, JOIN THE CLUB. My friends and my chosen family go crazy every time I step through a doorway, with admiration and love. So come at me, yell at me, tear me down and I will ALWAYS come back with more fcking glitter and more eyeshadow, and more ridiculous outfits.

Pride began as a celebration to force others to recognize what it means to be anything other than the status quo. It is imperative that we continue to stand up, stay loud, and hold our ground. I love all of you!
