Yellowstone: Travel Photography

We’re recently back from Montana.

My wife and I love Bozeman and have shortlisted it for future consideration. If either one—or both!—of our kids goes to school there, we won’t have any objections.

Glacier National Park is beautiful, but Yellowstone is magisterial. In fact, if you want to experience a Kingdom within a kingdom, spend your time in Lamar Valley, expansive views, open prairies, herds of bison, countless antelopes, the promise of wolves and grizzlies, and a gorgeous river that feeds it all.

Although I didn’t do a lot of photography, here are a few pictures from our trip.

I’ve added captions for color commentary.

Long live Lamar Valley!

Planette: Real Corporate Headshots

In business as in life, emotional realism matters.

You can feel it when people are genuinely lit up by the work they do. At Planette.ai, I had the chance to photograph a group of scientists who care deeply, not just about the technical accuracy of weather forecasts, but about the human and planetary stakes behind them.

These are people who understand that modeling the atmosphere is more than a mathematical challenge. It’s a way of seeing the world clearly and responsibly. Their passion isn’t performative—it’s grounded, informed, and emotionally real.

San Francisco Street Photography

While I was on a client shoot in the city, I explored Chinatown and the Financial District for hours, and was quickly overwhelmed by the chaos of scenes moving at the speed of life. But I slowed down, stayed calm, and waited for patterns to emerge. It’s an exhilarating combination of waiting and pouncing; that, plus a large dose of fearlessness. I hope you see something you like.

Fashion Photoshoot in the Woods

Lexiss Camacho and I shot in the woods, the moody woods, and I learned about the “flick,” that quick toss of fabric that brings a dress to life. I saw how a dancer’s craft lives in the fingertips and subtle movements between poses. But enough talk. The real action’s in the frames.

Dee and Loki in Danville, CA

I recently met up with Dee in downtown Danville for a photo session that felt more like a walk with a friend. Dee brought along her dog, Loki, who stayed close and kept us on our toes. We started near the old train museum, then wandered past brick facades along Railroad Avenue. Danville gave us a good mix of textures and tones. I’m always grateful for people (and pets) who show up ready to enjoy the process. Thanks, Dee—and Loki—for a great afternoon.
