Hi Collin, this beautiful spider is definitely NOT a brown recluse. This looks like a Wolf Spider. There are many, many species of wolf spiders. Here is a link for you to browse. I would guess your image, especially if you crop it, should be good enough to get a close ID. http://bugguide.net/node/view/1967/bgpag...
