Jedidiah and Alicia are a dynamic duo of artist minds known as The Puryears. They love each other. They love capturing images with creativity. And they love building friendships with the wonderful people they photograph!
Alicia has owned her own business since 2009 and chose Brooks Institute in Santa Barbara, California to further her career as a commercial photographer. After receiving a Bachelors of Fine Arts in December 2012 she relocated back to Spokane, Washington to marry her best friend Jedidiah.
In August 2012 Alicia was selected along with 12 other qualified students to travel to South Africa for six weeks to create a documentary of the people, culture, and several Non-Governmental Organizations. On their return they published a book and had two gallery showings. To learn more about the documentary, titled Today I Will Not Lie, click here.
Jed has always been creative with a knack for design. He was the senior editor of the Valley Christian yearbook in 2008, winning 1st place in nationals. Since then he has been building websites and enjoys editing in the Adobe Suite. He is also working on his Bachelors of Science with a focus of graphic design.
The Puryears first goal as media specialists, when hired, is to cater to their client’s desires and needs. During the consultation, expectations are clarified as well as sharing their creative style and design concepts. Alicia and Jedidiah love capturing images that are photojournalistic in style, but also enjoy posed portraits.
Thank you for your time and consideration,
The Puryears
