Its taken some time to really settle into the new mindset that fatherhood brings. A lot has shifted for me mentally over the last year.

My reason for making sure I’m trying to still develop myself is because I want to help my boys develop themselves. I want to be in shape enough to take them biking. I’ve decided to let go of my stubborn independence and take surfing lessons at 36 because I want to teach my sons. I want to be the example for them that they can continue to invent and reinvent themselves. To show them that they don’t have to be defined by past failures. That failures can be your best teacher.

Photography and Instagram has taken a backseat because I’m so focused on building a life for them where I’m home and present. I’m not sure if I’ll fully return to posting here, but if I do, it’ll look different than what it was before.

I love you boys ❤️

This was our first summer camping as a family with our newest addition 👶🏼! We knew it would be too cramped in our two person tent for 10 days, and didn’t want the expense of buying a trailer. We saw these Adrift inflatable all-season glamping tents and thought it would be the perfect thing for us - and it was!

No posts to try to assemble, we just plugged in the air compressor and it popped up in just a couple minutes. It was extremely sturdy.

We spent 10 days in the mountains in Idaho; the overnight temps were dropping down to nearly freezing! There is a vent in the ceiling for a little stove. We were excited to use it, however I didn’t end up fully setting it up because it was such dry conditions and there was a fire ban in place in the area.

For the square footage we got, it was fairly compact to just fold up, toss in the car and head out! 💯 would recommend, and can’t wait to go again next year!

As an outdoor photographer you deal with some level of unpredictability because conditions are constantly changing. This is one photo where I felt that the stars aligned. Late evening, the turquoise water was still making a perfect reflection of the forest behind it. One of my favourite captures 📸 🌲

Yucatan state is home and lots of old Spanish cathedrals which have beautiful architecture. Jenn and I were meeting some friends in downtown Merida when we stopped by this one. This is the first capture of one I was really happy with, taken New Year’s Eve. Can’t wait so showcase more of this area of Mexico!
