Over the last couple of years I’ve had the pleasure of shooting more editorial photography for various news outlets. Here are a few of the recent publications from the Colorado Sun.
Read MoreThe last pre-pandemic shoot has now finally come into the world. Flooded Tombs of the Nile aired on the National Geographic Channel and Disney+ this fall. I’m lucky again to have gotten to work with an amazing crew on such a wild story. Check it out on Disney+ anytime, and I’ll attach a few behind the scenes photos here.
Read MoreThis winter I had the pleasure of filming with scientists from the Grand Portage Band of Lake Superior Chippewa on their work protecting local moose populations. While filming moose capture and collaring for another series, we spent one day shooting for Vox.
Read MoreA slight bright spot during the pandemic has been the festival circuit for When Glaciers Go. So far we have screened at the following festivals. We can’t wait for an in person festival again to celebrate the work of such great creatives.
Read MoreThrilled to have our latest project When Glaciers Go premiere at Mountainfilm this year. Its a story about the Gurung family, living in the remote Mustang region of Nepal. Deep in the Himalayas the Gurungs and their neighbors were forced from their homes due to diminishing glacial water supply. The film follows their transition with one foot in the old ways and one in the new world.
Read MoreI had the privilege of joining another expedition to Nikumororo with National Geographic in search of Amelia Earhart. We started in the capitol of Kiribati, Tarawa, in search of a rumored scull that might be there. From there we went to Funafuti to sail off to Nikumororo where I field produced the land archaeology team. Always great to return to such an amazing place and get to know such passionate people.
Read MoreThis holiday season I had the joy of shooting in Antarctica for Tangled Bank Studios / HHMI and a possible PBS / Nova film.
Read MoreThis February we had the privilege of premiering our film Hike the Line at the Vancouver International Mountain Film Festival. It was wonderful to share the stage with Tenny and Claire for a Q&A afterwords to a full house.
Read MoreI spent several weeks getting to know and filming Claire and Tenny, who in May, completed the first ever thru-hike of the US / Mexico border. My collaborator Zak had this article published in Outside Magazine about the accomplishment. The Outside post also premiered the trailer for the upcoming film, releasing in early 2019.

Read MoreThe 85 for 85 project came about as some friends here in Montezuma County were troubled by the great decrease in protections the Trump administration made on the Bears Ears and Grand Staircase Escalante landscapes. Thinking about what can be done, they spearheaded creating a book of 85 artistic impressions of Bears Ears and Grand Staircase Escalante landscapes. The goal to raise $8,500 for the Wilderness Society and their fight against these decreases.
Read MoreOver the past year, I've been collaborating with the Montezuma Land Conservancy on a new video helping to define their mission visually. Using primarily conservation easements, MLC strives to protect the rural, open nature of the land in southwest Colorado. They've protected miles of land for perpetuity and have started to branch out into other realms as well, such as education and kids programs on their new 80 acre farm.
Read MoreMy father and I spent all of November, 2017 trekking and climbing in Nepal. A long dream of my Dad's to explore this part of the world I was delighted to tag along.
Read MoreI always love getting back to my old stomping grounds in Idaho to shoot (I used to guide on the Salmon and Snake in High School). I jumped at the opportunity to return for OARS to shoot some stories again this fall. Unfortunately our timing wasn't great, coming in right during some of the fiercest fires (and smoke) of Idaho's fire season. Unable to fly into the Middle Fork we audibled to the Main and had a really fun, unique trip.
Read MoreTodd Bishop of Bishop Boards and I set off on a southeast road trip in summer 2017 to shoot stories about many of his pro paddlers. From whitewater to yoga to surf SUP we had a blast getting to know the talented, passionate folks on the Bishop Boards team. Here are a few favorites of the project.
Read MoreIn the spring of 2017, friends Zak, Jeff and I rode off into the San Raphael swell in Utah in search of some slot canyon packrafting. With the good snowpack and warming temperatures things started to flow.
Read MoreIn Summer, 2017, I had the priviledge to go to Kiribati with National Geographic and TIGHAR to document the search for Amelia Earhart's remains. Shooting for National Geographic Studios we followed the story of a team of forensic dogs, trained to sniff out human remains as a last resort for the archaeologists that have been working on the remote island of Nikumaroro for decades.
Read MoreBears Ears National Monument became a reality at the end of 2016 after President Obama used the powers given to him by the Antiquities Act to protect this amazing area. Check out this video I created with Friends of Cedar Mesa to celebrate such a special place.
Read MoreI spent a day this week shooting up in the San Juan mountains today for a new National Geographic television program. Keeping the gear dry is a perpetual challenge but there's nothing better than being in the backcountry during a snow storm taking pretty pictures. Here's a couple BTS shots of the excursion.
Read MoreThis January I was lucky enough to head down to the Galapagos Islands to shoot a product video for OARS. Check out this short clip for some cool wildlife, geology and accommodation!
