Hi, I’m Patti
I love nature and wildlife photography for the adventure of it.
I grew up in Coeur d’Alene amidst the beauty of nature, lakes, and mountains. I want to be your adventure guide taking you to unfathomable places so you see things from a new perspective and make your heart sing with joy. Every photo is lovingly composed. Every place explored is lovingly explored. Bringing love and joy to your life is what I’m all about. I live in the Coeur d’Alene/Post Falls, Idaho area and am grateful for the precious beauty that surrounds me.
Photography
Photographing wildlife is an adventure!
Two Blue Birds
Along a barbed wire fence I snapped this photo of boy and girl blue birds.
Coming in for a Landing
As I shot a progression of this bald eagle landing in a tree, the snow flew up in her face as she reached out her talons to grasp the out stretched branches high at the top of a Ponderosa Pine Tree.
I’m not leaving you
Papa elk returns for a calf.
Bugling Elk
I saw him and ran up the hill, cow calling at him. The wind was in my face, so I knew he couldn’t smell me. He bugled at me and I snapped the photo. Beautiful!
Attention to Detail
My art focuses on light, color, and composition.
Interesting subjects
I see art in every day objects.
Sunrise, Grand Tetons, Elk
Layers of storytelling.
