A truly great photograph is more than just a perfect picture; it's the result of a collaborative and comfortable experience. My name is Russell Moore, and as a professional photographer based in Olympia, WA, I specialize in creating evocative images that tell your unique story. My focus is on three key areas: capturing the peak action and dedication in dynamic sports photography, celebrating a once-in-a-lifetime milestone with authentic senior portraits, and crafting polished, confident professional headshots. While my approach is meticulous, my process is designed to be effortless for you. From our first conversation to the final delivery, my goal is to make you feel confident and at ease as we work together to bring your vision to life.

The Experience Behind the Image

What my clients are saying

  • "Russell’s photos completely exceeded my expectations. They are absolutely stunning! He has such a gift, not only in setting up and capturing the shots but also in the way he edits them. The whole process felt effortless and fun. I never felt pressured or awkward in front of the camera. Instead, it was like spending time with a friend who happened to be taking incredible photos. Russell made me feel completely at ease, and the results are even better than I imagined."

  • "Russell helped me feel more natural when I typically struggle to take photos. He told me exactly how to pose and position. I was so happy with the results and would totally do another shoot with him."
