Images I've Taken Over The Years

My wife and I spent three weeks with this view in 2011. Tonsai Beach will always hold a special place in my heart. It is cliff locked so there are no cars, electricity or running water. But there is plenty of sport climbing. Eat, climb, nap, eat, and drink Chang. Then repeat.

I've spent a lot of my life with this view. Most of the time I've been casting a flyfishing rod, guided by one of the best, my Dad. This time he was fishing and I had my Camera.

My love waiting for a Falafel in Thailand.

Sorry, I'm a bad person and have not added an alt text.

I took this photo while on a trip with my parents. It is taken from Moki Point in Cedar Mesa. While my dad and I were taking photos, a couple of older gentlemen who were camped there shared stories and whiskey with us.

My sister is an impressive women. This image reminds me of how formidable and determined she is.

I took this out of a cheap rental car in Baja, Mexico. On the recommendation of our AirBnB host we'd gone looking for a secret snorkeling spot. We got stuck found an empty beach and I took this.

To date, the only family portraits I've done were for these three. It was a ton of fun and I felt privileged to take their photos. They are still dear friends.

I didn't take this. My buddy Marlin did and I edited it. Long ago are the days I spent almost every day of my life in Indian Creek, Utah climbing. I miss those days.

We didn't know it at the time, but this is one of the last dudes trips any of us took. Life got busy after this. This is a photo of three buddies and I in the Pecos Wilderness in New Mexico. I will need to make it back there one day.
