Hello! Welcome to my photography page! Celebrating the beauty of nature with raw unedited photos, mainly in the PNW! Here are shots from Heybrook Ridge, Mt. Rainier, and two from Yellowstone respectively! Appreciate any feedback! #PNW #Photography #WA #Yellowstone #Rainier
Mount Rainier, WA. Good morning, happy friday! Have a flowing stream feeding the local plants and wildlife. #PNW #WA #Photography #NaturePhotography #Rainier

Mount Rainier is actually in the 2nd and 3rd photos here, the glowing white mass behind the clouds! She was completely coated in snow and clouds, even when the sky isn't clear she has a wonderful aura.
Mount Rainier, WA. A place worth visiting multiple times a year, the reds of changing leaves and thin layers of snow during early Fall are beautiful to behold. #PNW #WA #Rainier #MountRainier #River #Fall #Valley #Photography #NaturePhotography

North Cascades, Cutthroat Pass, WA. Oct 19, 2025. Even in all the fog and dense snow, we spotted larches. They're even more striking when the brilliant golds stand out against a thick blanket of white ice. #PNW #WA #Larches #Snow #Fall

North Cascades, Cutthroat Lake, WA. Oct 19, 2025. Came to see larches, got a snowy misty forest instead. The lake was an ice bath, but it had its own haunting sort of charm. #PNW #WA #NorthCascades #Snow #Fog #Lake

North Cascades, Cutthroat Pass, Oct 19 2025. It was a lot snowier and foggier than we expected, but the early dose of winter was beautiful. #PNW #WA #Northcascades #Snow #Fog #Forest

Here's another shot I took last week on my final Milky Way trip of the season. I still have tons of MW stuff to edit and/or re-edit from my 14 trips to the desert this year but I'm already looking forward to next season! #photography

It was..a little unnerving getting photos on this grate bridge full of large gaps. #NorthCascades

Nooksack Falls is a stunning twin cascade near Mount Baker, pouring through a mossy canyon surrounded by deep evergreen forest.

Big Four Ice Caves: Here is the best shot I could get that day of an actual ice cave. Even standing this far away is dangerous, and I could feel a biting frigid air billowing out of the cave. There's a reason they carved a stark warning in stone at the entrance to the area: Don't be dumb! #PNW #WA

Big Four Ice Caves, Granite Falls, WA. Came here on a very foggy day that shrouded the mountains and caves, but there was a gloomy air that I had to capture. #PNW #WA #IceCaves #Photography #Naturephotography #Fall #Fog #Spooky
