on the part that obsession plays in my body of work: a very close friend recently asked me “how do you always find such perfect light in your photos?” and while that question is sweet, the answer is much less romantic i have shot hundreds and hundreds and hundreds of THOUSANDS of photos. that’s it. that’s the secret. i’ve hiked countless mountains, seen sunsets and sunrises across many named and unnamed valleys and i’ve taken pictures of them all. i’ve lived on the road full time for over four years, driven tens of thousands of miles across north america with a camera in my hand. 99% of the photos i take end up on a hard drive in a file drawer never to be seen again. the 1% is what you see. i’m not a master of anything. i just have a relentless passion for chasing those perfect little moments and after i fail over and over and over again, every now and then i get it right, when nature allows. i would love to be a master of light, or a perfect example of capturing beauty in ways that nobody else can whenever i want, but it’s simply not true. i fail far more often than i succeed, the key is to just keep going the answer is obsession
