There are certain places that I’ve wanted to travel to and photograph for so long, that by the time I finally see them in person, the experience is equal parts sublime and surreal. Double Arch, in Utah’s Arches National Park, is one such place. Aside from the sheer grandeur of the twin arches, what struck me most about the setting was how much flora there was thriving in the rock and sand at the base of the arches. I was especially drawn to the yucca plant that’s in the foreground of this photo, and the moment that I stumbled upon it, I immediately knew I had found my sunset composition. Prints Available.

There is no place that I feel more alive, more connected to what is important, than the wilderness. Whether an icy mountain summit, a misty forest, or a rocky coastline, the wild places of the world feel like home to me. While my love for the outdoors precedes my passion for photography, I now could not imagine having one without the other. Add a car to the equation, and the result for me is the feeling of absolute freedom, where the possibilities are limited only by my imagination and willpower. View more posts
