Hi there! I'm a full-time professional photographer and freelance photojournalist specializing in documentary, commercial and editorial work in one aspect of my business, and wedding photojournalism and lifestyle portraiture in the other.
As a freelancer, I tend to gravitate towards lifestyle imagery, portraiture, food photography and general reportage. I have also taught photojournalism as an adjunct professor at the University of Montana in Missoula.
Born in Montana, but growing up in the Midwest, I have made the west my home after earning my BA in English at Carleton College, my MA in Photojournalism at the University of Montana, and after working as a photojournalist at the late, great printed version of the Seattle Post-Intelligencer.
I'm currently based in Missoula, Montana, but welcome and thrive on travel opportunities, and have worked in Mexico, Canada, New York, California, Washington, Idaho, Oregon, Minnesota and Arkansas and I look forward to adding to this list.
Shoot me a note or give me a ring - I'd love to chat more with you about your next photo project! kristine@kristinepaulsen.com / 406.240.3469
