Russell Otterbein

Business Manager / co-founder lifethreads albums

Meet Russell, our other co-founder of lifethreads albums who acts as business manager for D&R Photo and lifethreads albums during the day, night and weekends.  He is passionate about art, creativity and story telling through media.  He also has a keen desire to build a business that treats its customers right and leads in giving back to the community around it.

Keeping our customers as faces and names not numbers on a list is big around here.  Because of that, we’re pretty hands-on, so chances are you’ll see or hear from Russell at least once during your transactions with us.

Outside of here, you may see me him wrestling one or all of my 4 kids (yeah you read that right, it’s not a typo) while holding his wife’s hand & sipping a flat white. He has turned into an avid cyclist who commutes to work by bike (go Vancouver!) and enjoys reading and playing his guitar when he can catch a moment.  But if he can score a date night with his wife, he’s all-in on that!
