PHOTOGRAPHER | FILMMAKER | WRITER

I tell stories

As a freelance photographer, filmmaker, and writer, I work with outdoor brands, guiding outfitters, non-profits, and publications to produce digital media content and tell engaging stories.

Because of my background in outdoor sports and international travel, I specialize in location shoots that are tough for many photographers and videographers to reach. I am ready to take my camera anywhere, whether it's a remote river canyon, steep couloir, or an urban street.

I am available for hire, so please get in touch!

Just one more from the fireworks last night. It was super fun to watch the display from the bridge, but I think I might have to hop on a SUP and get down on the river next year!

Eagle! Happy 4th of July, everyone! Except for Donald Trump, I hope he has a 💩 day. I was trying find the words to communicate deeper feelings about white male privilege, our current government, and our country’s whitewashed history, but I’ll just leave it at this: may next year be better.

Gotta beat the heat! @idahokyle and I SUPed ~7 miles down the Charles, through the locks, and around the harbor today. •

Summer 2013 | Late afternoon sun over @greatsanddunesnps on a blazing hot day. Shot from the back of a pickup truck going 60 on the highway. This was right after we walked 15 miles across the dunes on our way from Crestone to the Zapata Ranch as part of our Sanger de Christo traverse. •

Antarctica, 2011 | Yowza it’s hot out here in Boston! Here’s an iceberg to cool you down. Tough to see scale in this one, but this little piece was about the size of a Prius.

Boston in blue! Not much of a sunset last night, but the “blue hour” at twilight was pretty rockin’. •
