Photos: Bangkok, Thailand

I spent the first couple weeks of March backpacking around Thailand on a mostly-solo trip through Bangkok and Krabi. While it wasn't my first time traveling alone or traveling through Southeast Asia, it was my first time visiting Thailand. The trip was a much needed period of relaxation, adventure, and reflection that spurred lots of interesting travel stories, including having my passport stolen in Bangkok and

Annual Review: Best of 2013 Photos

2013 was an interesting and semi-transitional year photo-wise, as it included more "photos for business" than "photos for fun," although certainly fun was had in all events! I added 2.0 terrabytes worth of data to my already full hard drives, which is pretty crazy. It took a while just to sort through all of the data, not to mention attempt to recap and pull out

Photos: Lanikai Pillboxes

This fall trip to Hawaii has been full of work, from shooting 2 food festivals and documenting 13 farmers and their farms. It's been hard to find the time to take a break from working, but before my trip drew to a close, I was determined to get outdoors and tackle the Lanikai Pillboxes hike on Windward Oahu to get those postcard photo shots I'd

Photos: Whalewatching with Real Housewives of Miami’s Adriana De Moura

Among the most fun days of a freelance photographer is the opportunity to travel and take photos. When I was contacted about the possibility of photographing Real Housewives of Miami star Adriana De Moura in Seattle, I assumed it would be a quick and simple fashion shoot, probably at her hotel at the Four Seasons. The last thing I was expecting was to spend the

Photos: Samish Bay and Bow-Edison Weekend Road Trip

Looking for a quick trip out of town for less than a day? Consider Samish Bay! Last weekend, I found myself skimming through a hard copy of Seattle Weekly, something I haven't done in ages. Naturally, the food & drink section  caught and held my attention the longest, mostly because of one article whose headline made me start drooling. "Quest for the Perfect (Oyster) Picnic: A

Photos: Summer Lightning Storm in Seattle

The benefit to starting photo editing of a night's work at 12 midnight is the rare chance to see and shoot an epic thunder and lightning show that illuminated Seattle's sky late Friday night/early Saturday morning. Beginning shortly after midnight, I could see the lightning streaks bolt through the sky out of the corner of my eye as I was working in PhotoShop. Finally, my

Photos: Oregon Coast Road Trip

Photos from an epic 4th of July weekend to the Oregon coast. Beginning on the 4th of July, we drove south on Highway 101, stopping in Tillamook and at various points along the way before making it to The Whaler Motel in Newport to watch the fireworks and stroll along Nye Beach. The next morning, we made our way further south to Florence, where we

Photos: Alaska Cruise

If you ever think traveling within the United States is boring, you need to visit Alaska--also, if you ever get an invitation to visit Alaska by cruise ship, your only answer is "yes!" While I was definitely excited to be visiting a new place, I generally get more excited if that place will also earn me a new passport stamp. However, even from aboard a

Photos: Puerto Vallarta, Mexico

Having traveled to over 20 countries, it surprises even me that I'd never been to Mexico until 2013. It only took a few days down south before the allure of the country made me understand why so many people rave about Mexico. I ventured down south with a friend to Puerto Vallarta, a resort city situated on the Pacific Ocean's Bahía de Banderas. Having grown up
