ABOUT THE ARTISTS

Larey & Phyllis are fine-art photographers with an uncanny ability to glimpse a fleeting moment and to beautifully suspend it with the mere depression of their shutters.

With a casual, approachable personality, the McDaniels' are able to engage their subjects and coax them into a calm, relaxed mood necessary for creating natural portraiture and emotional photojournalistic images.

Additionally, the couple possess a fine eye for lighting and composition and an innate ability to create mood, drama and emotion, which is beautifully expressed in both their images and their albums. 

Professional memberships include

  • National Association of Professional Photographers
  • Wedding and Portrait Photographers International
  • National Association of Photoshop Professionals
  • Eastside Association of Fine Artists
  • Parklane Gallery in Kirkland
