Plain in Carrizo Plain National Monument, United States

Since moving to the central coast of California a couple years ago, I’d heard about the wild flowers…but I just got to go see them this week. Amazing. All the rain we’ve received this 2016-17 season has produced some deep colors and much beauty.

Ocean in Malibu, United States

I got to spend this Thanksgiving weekend at my in-laws beautiful beach house in Malibu. One morning, I woke up to see the sunrise. As the sun was coming up, I walked outside to go down the beach house stairs to the beach. This was the view and it was too good not to snap a photo or two of.

Surfing in Malibu, United States

  107 km from Santa Barbara


I woke up early one morning while I was staying on the coast of California to see the sunrise. The colors in the sky were unreal. I wanted to capture the peaceful calmness of the view, so I shot the wave breaking with a slow shutter, giving it that soft, peaceful feel. Takes me back every time I look at it.

travelers stories about Ferris wheel in Santa Monica Pier, United States

Ferris wheel in Santa Monica Pier, United States

  132 km from Santa Barbara


This photo was taken during an outing with a friend who I had known for seven years, but had never met in person, believe it or not. We befriended each other through online video gaming, and became very close despite being 3,000 miles apart. Fortuitously, as he was training for the US Airforce, he was stationed at a base an hour away from my home. This was a great opportunity to show him around the places I grew up, including the Santa Monica Pier was this photo was taken. Having been born in Santa Monica, I had never thought much of these tourist attractions, but now this sight feels fresh.

Cycle sport in Venice Beach, United States

While wondering around filming in Venice Beach I took a second, stepped back and took in the moment. Then I switched to camera mode and snapped this photo without truly dialing in the correct settings. When I got to editing the photo I actually enjoyed how it came out. The blurred facing and all. It gives light to know specific person so you can envision yourself as the guy or guy headed to catch some waves on a beautiful sunny Cali day.
