Blog.
Join us for wildlife stories, field notes, and plenty of coastal surprises - from sea lions at the marina to hidden tide pools and a shop full of nature-inspired art.
This blog is a space where I share my experiences exploring wild landscapes and coastal gems. My photography is guided more by instinct than by rules - grounded in what moves me, not just what looks good on print. I’m drawn to quiet scenes and the in-between moments that often go unnoticed. Each frame is less about technical perfection and more about capturing a feeling.
From the rugged shores of California to the vast beauty of the Southwest, I document my journeys and the stories that unfold along the way. Whether you’re a fellow adventurer or someone who simply appreciates the beauty of wildlife - I hope these reflections inspire you to explore more, slow down, and see the world with fresh eyes.
I write from the coast, the trail, and sometimes the passenger seat. Sign up for photo essays, behind-the-scenes notes, and exclusive travel guides.
Wildlife Wednesday: Bubbling Shore Crabs and the Art of Hiding in Plain Sight 🦀🫧
I spotted this shore crab deep in a crevice, completely covered in foam. Initially, I expected it to stay hidden. Instead, it emerged from the rocks and positioned itself in the open sunlight. When exposed during low tide, these crabs blow bubbles through their gill chambers to maintain moisture - tiny saltwater humidifiers built into their faces.
