A journey into the Eastern Plains to find the balance between the perfect order of a sunrise and the earned peace of weathered history. From the 'bones' of the Aroya schoolhouse to the iron legacy of the Hugo Roundhouse, these field notes explore the beauty of divine design found in what remains.

A photo-driven story about the families who grow coffee in Chiapas and what it looks like to witness their work up close.

I’m learning that better storytelling doesn’t come from standing back—it comes from stepping closer. What started as observation turned into connection, and this coffee shop became a classroom for learning how to see people more fully.

Christmas reminds me that Jesus didn’t wait for things to be put back together. He stepped straight into the brokenness to rescue us.

Before my trip to Chiapas, I went out on a photo walk not to chase great photos, but to practice seeing people. Street photography is forcing me out of comfort and into awareness—training my eye for moments and stories that won’t wait.

We didn’t see it pull in. We came around the corner near the Leadville train station and found the Holiday Express glowing against the night sky—an unexpected moment of warmth, light, and winter stillness.

The day after Thanksgiving, my wife and I decided to take an impromptu trip up to the Leadville, Colorado area—one of our favorite places to escape to when we need a quick reset.

A quiet snow day turned into a simple photo walk—slowing down, paying attention, and noticing what I usually pass by.

I’ve always been enamored by landscapes. I love their beauty, and for me, I also love the Creator behind them. I love to tell His story by capturing these beautiful canvases.

The first time we set foot in Iceland was September 2023. We had ten days, a rented campervan, and a plan to drive all the way around Ring Road. Two years later, we went back for another ten days — this time sticking mostly to the southern coast so we could slow down and linger in places we loved the first time around.
