Photographer, backpacker, poet, alchemist, friend.
As the seasons change, so the lens of my minds eye shifts to new sites and perspectives. I find my creativity responding to nature in novel ways this spring.

Mount Rainier, as captured at sunset from the perspective of the Tatoosh Basin.
This series of images sat largely unprocessed as I waited for the corresponding emotions to pass. I spent two nights here.

Captured near the summit of Mount Townsend in the Olympic Mountains.
I was so struck by the beauty of this experience that all negative emotions were temporarily arrested such that I knew peace for this one moment.

Textures, entropy, decay, and the shapes that hide in shadow.
My creativity is taking new directions--embracing the old while treading new ground.
When faced with adversity, expand!

This composition was captured South of Third Beach at low tide.
This exposure is like looking at the inner organ of the Pacific, delicate and teaming with life.

The sea stacks along the Washington coast stand as a reminder of the impermanence of things. These spires are the skeletons of the land that once was; a land that exists in a constant state of fading away.

There is a principal called "leave no trace" that applies to outdoor recreation. It's a philosophy about how to have the lowest impact possible on public lands.

Also, please be more responsible with fire!

This is a long exposure shot I took South of Third Beach yesterday.
My experience while out there was one of genuine humility and serenity. I look forward to spending more time in nature.

No matter what life throws my way, scenes like this remind me that there's always light, always hope, and always a new day to embrace. 🌅💛

Who's ready to chase more sunrises?

Under the quiet glow of the night, I found myself drawn back to South Aberdeen—a place where echoes of industry still linger in the shadows. On a whim, I wandered here, chasing memories.

A bustling underpass in downtown Aberdeen stirs up a whirlwind of emotions. It’s a reminder of my childhood, at once wonderous and sad. Seeing Aberdeen captured in this way, it feels like a part of me is still there, tangled in the rush of time.

Sol sets over Titlow Park | Tacoma, WA.
How do I remember where this oldie was taken? It's the birdhouse. Photographers remember weird details like that.

An abstract I snapped with my cellphone while on a walk with my girlfriend today.

I would highly recommend Cirque du Soleil to anyone interested in the intersection of storytelling and acrobatics. Everything–from the acting, choreography, areal acrobatics, musical accompaniment, and storytelling–were well performed, evocative, and full of whimsy and wonder.
