June Updates 🌀️ Wild Eye Magazine Feature, New Blog Post and Images, 2026 Workshops Released


Hello Reader,

It's been a busy few months, and I apologize for the long gap between newsletters. It all started with a hectic travel and workshop schedule in January and February. Then, in March, while exploring some new canyons in the remote backcountry of Death Valley, I broke my finger, which kept me away from typing for quite a while. After that, everything seemed to snowball, and here I am, months later, playing a significant game of catch-up! The good news is that I recently "graduated" from physical therapy, and I've regained almost 100% of my range of motion (what a relief!) I still have a few exercises to complete at home over the next month, but I should be back to normal soon.

I hope summer is off to a great start for everyone! This summer has brought a rare period at home for us, with just one upcoming workshop in Crested Butte, Colorado in a few weeks. Being home for an extended period is unusual for us, but it's given me the chance to catch up on work, plan new projects, and tackle some much-needed (and long-overdue) tasks, like updating my website for the first time in five years and catching up on a massive backlog of photos. I'm also starting to develop a new small book idea, and I'll be sharing more details about that soon!

During the downtime, I've been enjoying time with my horse, tending to our summer vegetable garden, hiking, preparing for a few backpacking trips, and making space for some much-needed downtime to appreciate the smaller moments and quiet treasures of summer.

Below, you'll find a learning opportunity in Moab, along with a new blog post featuring fresh imagery from Capitol Reef National Park, a blog post where I share thoughts on how I'm practicing "photography self-care," a recent magazine feature, my new favorite trail discovery, and more!

Thanks so much for sticking around during my absence. Things should be back to a more regular rhythm from here on out!

Wild Eye Magazine Feature

I'm excited to share that I have a portfolio feature and a small written piece on Yellowstone National Park in the most recent issue of Wild Eye Magazine. This publication is dedicated to celebrating the art of nature photography with a focus on storytelling, ethics, and conservation, while nurturing a deeper connection to the natural world. This online magazine features thoughtful essays, photo portfolios, and interviews that highlight responsible and emotionally resonant approaches to photographing nature.
The current issue features articles and photography by fellow colleagues Ami Vitale, Jennifer Hayes, Britta Jaschinski, Chase Dekker, David duChemin, Amy Gulick, Ulla Lohmann, Nick Smith, John K. Putnam and Andrea Zampatti.

Upcoming Learning Opportunities

Join me for upcoming in-person or online learning opportunities!

Join Me at the Symposium!

September 25th - 28th, 2025

Looking for inspiration and a chance to focus on your photography alongside a group of creative photographers and instructors?

The Moab Photography Symposium offers an intimate learning experience that allows you to reconnect with your creativity and deepen your photographic vision. It’s a smaller, more personal conference that emphasizes creating meaningful work. You won't find gear talk or rushed outings. This event is the only event out there that puts a heavy focus on creativity and finding your photographic voice. It's a great way to reconnect with your craft, and to spend time on yourself and your camera, and walk away with new ideas and inspiration.

This event holds a special place in my heart. Nine years ago, it was the first photography event I ever attended, marking the beginning of my journey as a professional nature photographer. Moab was my first stop, and the experience was both inspiring and transformative. I returned year after year as a participant, and now I’m grateful for the opportunity to share from the same stage that once inspired me.

I'm incredibly honored to be presenting and teaching in person at this year’s symposium, joining an amazing lineup of instructors including David Kingham, Guy Tal, Colleen Miniuk, Chuck Kimmerle, Charlotte Gibb, Michael Gordon, and Bruce Hucko.

I’d love for you to join us for this unique experience, and there are some spaces still available!

New Blog Post: Photography Self-Care

I recently returned from a trip to the deserts of Utah, which was a much-needed opportunity to reconnect with my photography and reignite my inspiration. With all the external photography noise from the world and life, it's easy to feel disconnected. Sometimes, stepping back and returning to the basics is exactly what’s needed to rediscover the joy. Read about my experience and explore new imagery from my time in Utah.

​This is part one of a two-part series. Part two will arrive next month!

Big Spoon Roasters Nut Butters

When you're out adventuring, photographing, or hiking, nothing hits the spot like a satisfying trail lunch, summit treat or snack. A few years ago, a friend introduced me to Big Spoon Roasters and their line of nut butters. As a devoted peanut butter fan, I was skeptical. Could anything really replace my beloved PB&J? But after giving them a try, I was hooked!

​

These nut butters officially dethroned my traditional peanut butter and jelly sandwiches a few years ago. During a recent trek through the backcountry of Capitol Reef, they became our go-to lunch everyday spread on a tortilla, and they absolutely hit the spot.

​

Big Spoon offers a variety of unique and ever-changing flavors and the photo above shows of my favorite flavors in recent months. Not only are these butters delicious and packed with energy, but you can also feel good about buying them. The company is committed to environmental, social, and fiscal sustainability, making it a feel-good purchase.

*Please note, I'm not sponsored by any of the companies I promote, I just enjoy sharing things that I love and find useful as I journey through life*
