Inle Lake Myanmar

In the summer of 2014, I arrived at Inle Lake almost by accident—and it ended up being one of the most meaningful places I’ve ever photographed. Myanmar (formerly Burma) had only recently begun opening its borders after decades of isolation. Tourism was still limited, infrastructure was minimal, and much of the country felt untouched by …

Delightful Dunedin

There are certain places that stay with you—and for me, Dunedin is one of them. Over time, I found myself wanting to capture more than just photographs. I wanted to tell the story of the people, the history, and the character that make this town so special. That idea turned into a documentary film I’m …

Yosemite in Winter

Yosemite in winter is a world of its own—quiet, mystical, and absolutely breathtaking. I took this photograph during a solo trip in January 2018, just after a heavy snowfall. The air was cold, the valley was silent, and for a brief moment, the clouds broke just enough for this frame to come alive. This particular …

The Red Light

I took this long-exposure photograph in Amsterdam’s Red Light District years ago, back when I was wandering Europe with my camera and a curious mind. I set up on the edge of the canal, wanting to capture both sides of the street in one frame — the neon glow, the reflections, the movement of people …

Hanging Lake in Winter

I took this photograph at Hanging Lake in Colorado several years ago. I’d been there before with friends, but on this trip I decided to go up alone. I drove down the interstate to the trailhead, parked the car, and headed up the trail late in the afternoon with the intention of photographing the lake …

The Falls in Laos

This photograph was made at the Tat Sae Waterfalls (also called Tad Sae), tucked along a tributary of the Nam Khan River in Luang Prabang Province, Laos. The falls sit about 18 kilometers southeast of Luang Prabang and a short walk from the small village of Bak En. Getting there felt quiet and unhurried, the …

St Marks Lighthouse

This week I’m sharing photographs I’ve taken with a drone — a tool that completely changed the way I see the world as a photographer. Before drones were available to consumers like me, I used to wonder what it would be like to climb to the top of a tree or become a bird for …

Key West Sunset

I’ve been going to Key West since just after high school, and somehow it continues to feel familiar and new every time I make the trip. I was back again this past July 4th weekend with friends, but my history with this island stretches all the way through my adult life—quiet Christmases when I didn’t …
