Holy shit. I can’t believe I’ve made it to 500 adventures. Truly a mind-bending accomplishment, when you realize I started photography back in 2018. That’s approximately one adventure every 3.2 days for four and a half years straight- while working full-time.

I need to get my shit together. For the fourth time in three years of living on the road, I ran out of gas. And this time it was in the middle of rural Tennessee.

Today’s adventure starts with a little bit of a bang. Or should a big bang… There were intoxicated people involved.

It was one of those days, folks. You show up to a seemingly epic waterfall only to find sprinkles. But hey, we’re prevailing no matter what.

Today we visited Machine Falls, which might be the most badass name for a waterfall I’ve ever heard.

Today’s probably going to be the closest you’ll ever see me get to sports photography.

Alright! Welcome back to our regular programming. (That was directed at me, not you.)

Today we explored White Sand Dunes National Park… And ironically I didn't see a single black person there.

Cave photography for me has slowly developed into a game of “what do you see in the inkblot?” Except this wasn’t an ordinary cave. Ohhhhh, no.

I don’t normally do three shoots in one day, but I think it finally hit me that we’re almost back in civilization.

Today I felt like I was on acid as I explored one of the most famous places in Big Bend National Park- Santa Elena Canyon. I’m not joking. This photo I got will rock your world.

I can’t believe we did it. We made it back to the United States alive and in one piece. HOLY MOTHER OF GOD WE DID IT.

Today we got the worst night’s sleep I’ve ever had. I’m not joking. In the past 3 years living in a vehicle, 6 of those months in Mexico and Central America, it hasn’t been worse.

Apparently the cost of nine delicious photos is a hornet to the face. Worth it? Yes. But before I get into that, I have something on my mind I need to clear up.

Today we explored a jungle called Ixpanpujul. If you can pronounce that correctly on your first try, I’ll send you a pack of orange-grape gum.

Alcohol and photography don’t mix. (Although it would be especially nice if they did.) Today’s adventure was case study #100 about how many times I’ve tested out this theory.

Today we made it back to Guatemala to take one of my favorite photos in a long time. The lighting was just so delicious. These are the moments I absolutely live for. But first, we had to deal with the Children of the Corn.

Today we drove through San Pedro Sula, the murder capital of the world. Not out of fun, mind you. It was the only way.

Today I tested a new theory in the field- at one of the most elegantly massive waterfalls in all of Honduras. Can waterfalls do that? Be as fragile as a leaf in a freezer, yet simultaneously a destroyer of worlds? Why yes, they can.

Woohoo! WATERFALL MANIA!! Today felt like a trip back to Oregon. We got a recommendation from a local coffee roaster about this secret Nicaragua spot.
