Parent / Partner / Planner / Photographer

In December 2019, I bought a new camera for the first time in 12 years, in anticipation of becoming a father and wanting to take cute, high-quality baby photos. Suddenly, at a time when I was about to have a lot less time for hobbies, photography became another obsession that I knew I had to make time for in my life.

I am now a full-time father, full-time husband, full-time architect, hobby gamer, and amateur photographer, in roughly that order. Life can easily get very busy. I use photography to help me take a breath and relax, and as a tool to connect more intimately with the nature I love to explore with what little spare time I have.

I wanted to create a website that shows that with some planning up front, you can achieve amazing photography results on short solo trips or even family vacations. It’s easy to get jealous of the professional photographers and Instagrammers that make a living from traveling all over the place, to epic location after epic location, crafting catalogs of highly edited photos. Most of us can’t afford, or don’t have the time to do that. But even on a short family vacation, road trip, or weekend excursion, you can create work you’re excited to share with others and that helps preserve your memories of the places you visit.

If you’re eager to learn about my approach to photography (both technical and compositional) or how I plan my trips, definitely check out the blog for tips and tricks, gear guides, and more. Please also feel free to e-mail me with questions - I want to help! I want others like me to be equipped to explore their passion in photography even if they don’t have a lot of time to commit to it.
