"Darius Kinsey (1869-1945) is recognized as one of the group of photographer geniuses who lived in the Pacific Northwest and produced a very large body of work in the years around the turn of the 20th Century. . Kinsey came to the Northwest with his family in 1889, at age 20, and they soon opened a hotel and other businesses in Snoqualmie, which was then just a small village and depot on the Seattle Lake Shore & Eastern railroad line. He began taking photos for the SLS&E's northern branch that stretched to Sumas and met his prospective bride, Tabitha Pritts, near the village of Nooksack in 1894. After marrying in 1896, they lived in Sedro beginning in 1897 and set up a thriving photo studio there. While in Sedro-Woolley, he generated income from studio photographs but soon began trekking into the North Cascades mountains and following logging crews into the foothills. "Those areas would eventually become his preferred venues and his studio work lessened, and Tabitha became his partner and darkroom specialist while he traipsed off into the woods, seeking both views and customers. The Kinseys moved to Seattle during the holiday season of 1906-07 and he set up a company that eventually became known as "Timber Views" in a home and studio on East Alder Street and a decade later in the Greenwood district. During that post-Sedro-Woolley period, he increased his emphasis on the logging railroads and especially the locomotives and crews that were felling timber in remote areas throughout the Northwest. Darius kept at work until he was 71, but fell off a stump in the fall of 1940 and October of that year is the last recorded date of his negatives." (from Skagit River Journal).
