About Me
Derrick Schwieters
šø Lifestyle Photographer ā Spokane, WA
Hi, Iām Derrick, your friendly local lifestyle photographer dedicated to capturing the authentic essence of human connection right here in Spokane. My approach is all about real momentsānatural, heartfelt, and full of character. Whether it's family bonds, weddings, or personal portraits, I aim to freeze those genuine emotions and stories in every frame
.
š¤ PreāWedding Interview Sessions
Long before the vows are exchanged, I love sitting down with couples in a relaxed, fun settingāmaybe your favorite park or a space that feels personal to you. Sticking a mic on you both, we chat about how you met, the moment you knew it was true love, and what you're most excited for on your big day. These candid interviews add real depth to your wedding narrativeābringing your story to life beyond photos and film
.
ā¤ļø Why It Matters
Your love story (and your everyday moments) deserve more than just polished visualsāthey deserve voice, personality, and authenticity. My goal is to create images and videos that not only capture what happened but how it felt.

I want to capture this very thing - this adventure you're on, this story you are creating together, hand in hand, side by side.
________________________________________________________________________________________________________
I'm a hybrid photographer/videographer - As a team, my second photographer and I are both also recording video clips throughout the day, as well as photography. We're able to separate to be in two places at once. That means we can do getting ready coverage at multiple locations, and get multiple ceremony angles easily without being obtrusive.
