I have way too much camera equipment, and most of it I don’t even use, so I’ve been on a selling spree lately. I sold a few things including some lenses, but when I found these two sitting on a shelf in the closet, they made me pause. They are the Zeiss 16-70mm f/4 and the So...
A huge winter storm dumped tons of snow across much of the US, so I knew I had to go somewhere to photograph an event like this. When I found out New York City was going to get around a foot of snow, I knew what I had to do. I got in my car and drove 700 miles from Indiana to...
I visit Saint Joseph, Michigan, looking for some snow. I get incredible conditions, but I make a rookie mistake.

The first snow of the season here in Indiana came in force. We got several inches and I loved every second of it.

The forecast had some rain for Death Valley National Park, so I immediately booked a campsite. I was hoping for some rare conditions in the park, and I did get some of that. The consequences were a bit unexpected, though.

For the last few months, I've been using the Tamron 35-150mm f/2-2.8. It's a wonderful lens, but it comes with serious drawbacks. Will it replace my all-time favorite Tamron 28-200mm f/2.8-5.6?

We all feel frustrated about our photography at some point. But the doubs and fears are normal and part of the process. We get to create not because we don't feel them, but despite them.

I get asked this question very often: why only black and white? Aren't you tempted to capture those beautiful fall colors?

I have a hard time leaving the PNW. The days are beautiful and moody, very different from what's waiting for me further east. So even though I was supposed to be gone by now, I decide to give the Oregon Coast a couple more days.

The Columbia River Gorge is home to more than 70 waterfalls. It would take me weeks to even visit all of them, so in this video, I'll photograph just a handful. And while photographing a waterfall might seem pretty straightforward, I also want to share some tips.

I visit two of the most beautiful beaches in the Olympic Peninsula: Rialto and Second Beach. The locations are stunning... but the conditions couldn't be more treacherous. I struggle with the wind and the rain, and push it a little bit too far with the tides.
