Hi there.

I'm Carey and I’m currently a Field Engineer at GE Healthcare. I install, maintain and repair diagnostic imaging equipment around the Pacific Northwest, and am taking Electronics Technology classes at North Seattle College. I previously spend a lot of time taking photos and writing about cameras and photography and produced a ton of video and composed musical scores for short video projects. I can't imagine life without motorcycles or music.

I graduated from Western Washington University in 2011 with a degree in Visual Journalism and subsequently spent four years working full-time at Puget Sound Energy as their Multimedia Specialist. In other words, I visually documented everything from facilities upgrades and storm restoration to corporate headshots and energy efficiency projects. I also spent time as DPReview’s Reviews Editor, which included photo and video production, extensive writing in a variety of styles on a variety of photographic topics, and I made sure that everything we call a ‘review’ is accurate, valuable, relevant, accessible and entertaining. In the winter of 2021, I received my Master’s degree in Communication in Communities and Networks from the University of Washington, with a specialization in storytelling and user experience. In and around all of this, I’ve engaged in freelance work, photographing weddings, events, portraits and sporting events.

My work has been published in The Western FrontKlipsun Magazine, Seattle PI, The Rotarian, Bellevue ReporterPuget Sound Business Journal, Alaska Airlines Magazine, Seattle Met, and of course, DPReview. I won first place in general news photography for the 2010 Society of Professional Journalists' Mark of Excellence Awards, and was Outstanding Graduate for the field of journalism from Western Washington University in 2011. I was also an instrumental member of the team that won a Totem Award from PRSA Puget Sound for crisis communications in 2013.

In case you haven't guessed from my photographs, I love to travel. There's nothing quite like venturing off to an unknown new place for a complete creative recharge.
