Read MoreMoody Atmosphere (Grand Tetons and Bryce Canyon 2023)
After seeing some truly amazing sights at Yellowstone we made our way to the Grand Tetons […]
Read MoreThermal Pools and Waterfalls (Yellowstone 2023)
I've been waiting all year to go on a big trip and do some sightseeing with my family. I think the best way to share the pictures from that trip is to split them into two albums. This first album is from our time in Yellowstone […]
Read MoreStaying Flexible (When Things Go Wrong)
This year, I’ve spent a lot of time taking a critical look at my portfolio and considering compositions (and locations) that I want to revisit. I had a plan to have another go at a local place and a picture I took years ago […]
Read MoreFinding Peace (Wichita Mountains)
Sometimes I just need a break in a beautiful place. Some time alone to figure everything out. With that in mind, I set out on my first weekend-long camping trip of the year to the Wichita Mountains […]
Read MoreCalm Place (Monahans Sandhills)
I love dunes! I haven’t had a chance to see any in a long time so I planned a short trip to spend an afternoon at the Monahans Sandhills not too far away.

The weather was great when I got there, with many clouds in the sky, and I was excited to explore and see what I would find [...]

Last year I retook a Milky Way photo from a place that’s close to home looking to improve on it. The picture I got was better, but there were still things I wanted to fix this year. I decided to make my way out to the middle of nowhere in the middle of the night to iterate on this shot one last time […]

The sky was completely overcast and the wind was blowing hard, so I made a creative decision to focus on more abstract compositions and emphasize all the interesting textures that I was seeing […]
Read MoreRefocus (A Wildlife Exercise)
I wanted to start the year by stepping outside of what I’m used to. I came up with the idea of spending 3 mornings going to the park and taking pictures of the ducks and the geese that are here for the winter. To challenge myself a little more I decided that each morning I would change the way I did things and see how that affected what I came away with […]
