[ Field Notes ]

Welcome to my personal photography blog. For over a decade I’ve chased that fleeting, magical light in search of the most beautiful landscapes across the American West — from the spectacular wildflower superblooms of California to Utah’s dramatic red rock canyons and mountain peaks of the Sierra Nevada, the popular National Parks like Yosemite, and the dreamy seascapes of Malibu. These are my real field notes: the techniques, gear choices, camera settings, and hard-earned lessons I’ve learned exploring the outdoors in my Subaru with my dog.
