About 10 weeks ago Dreaming of Iceland

As a travel photographer, I am very fortunate to explore many of the worlds most beautiful places. However just as with anyone else, there is always more to see. My travel bucket list is constantly growing and it is for this reason that I usually don't return to a single location too often. Iceland is one of the few exceptions. I can never get enough of working in this beautiful country. This year alone I will be spending roughly 7 weeks both teaching and exploring in Iceland. Needless to say, I can't wait!

The photography workshop that I am leading with my good friend +Ken Kaminesky from June 7th - 14th of this year in Iceland, sold out in less then 13 days. In fact we have had so many people sign up, that we are now offering a second workshop in Iceland, September 6th - 13th of this year, giving our participants the potential to capture the northern lights in one of the most beautiful countries in the world. If you are interested, you can get more informatio

About 11 weeks ago "Making Fun"
Isabela, Galapagos Islands - Ecuador

When it comes to bio diversity, the Galapagos Islands are one of the top locations on the planet. I was very fortunate to spend a number of months working in Ecuador and the Galapagos for National Geographic a number of years ago. This was in fact, one of the turning points in my career, as it opened up a number of doors that would of otherwise been closed to a young photographer like myself at that time.

This photo was taken on the Island of Isabela, which is my favorite island in the Galapagos. The Marine Iguanas are but a small portion of the amazing species that in habit this specific part of the world.

Camera: Canon 40D
Lens: Canon 70-200 2.8L + 1.4 TC

About 8 weeks ago Behind the Lens // Scouting Bondi Beach in Australia

I went out this morning to shoot sunrise on Bondi Beach here in Australia to scout out locations for my photo walk this afternoon (co-hosted with +Michael Sutton ). While we will have fun regardless, we are looking at over 800 potential attendees. There is such a vibrant photo community here in Oz. Stoked to help bring everyone together.

About 6 weeks ago Behind the Lens // Karijini

Without a doubt, Karijini National Park in the northern region of Western Australia is one of the most beautiful locations on this planet. I spent the last three days exploring the Australian bush, amazing gorges and remarkable canyons that make up Karijini.

Needless to say, I am already planning a return trip and I am currently working out the logistics of running a photography workshop in the park itself in 2014.

This photo was taken of Kermits Pool.

About 13 weeks ago "Fire In The Sky"
Los Glaciares National Park, Argentina - Patagonia

There is no other place on this planet that I have seen weather so volatile and skies so dramatic as the Patagonia region of South America. Many photographers come to explore and document the regions numerous icons, only to be greeted with two days of shooting weather out of 20. I am very much looking forward to my return in March of 2014. I think a small private photo workshop is in order!
