WORDS
ON THE
PROCESS

Couple's photos by the river, the Arashiyama Bamboo Forest, Tenryu-ji temple, and the long uphill trek to Sannenzaka.

Spending time in Polson, Montana was absolutely gorgeous. Visiting Glacier National Park was amazing — could have easily spent a whole month here.

Fell off of blogging for a bit there... but I've kept on doing my thing, offline! Travelled to Cabo San Lucas and Puerto Vallarta with the trusty X-T4.

Going back through the pictures from Colorado Springs, looking for any with potential of shining with a little extra work in post.

Back from our Valentine's vacation to Colorado Springs — it was a beautiful place.

Starting the morning out from our lodge room with yesterday's flowers getting as much sun as they can in the window. We had a 2.5 hour ride ahead.

Together with my girlfriend, we took a long and cold walk around the Glen Eyrie castle grounds to see what we could see.

A stroll along the castle grounds. Fujifilm X-T4 & Fuji XF 18mm f/1.4.

Some pictures from our time at Glen Eyrie castle & Colorado Springs! This is just the first post — I've taken plenty more.

This video began filming last November when I was tasked with capturing several doctoral students in action. Filmed and edited by me.

Playing around with Camera RAW in Photoshop. Fujifilm X-T4 & Sigma 18-50mm — denoised after vs. uncompressed RAW before.

A work project two months in the making — 30 minutes of footage painstakingly whittled down to 2:30. A great exercise in storytelling.

My new Fujifilm XF 70-300mm f/4-5.6 lens came in — took it on another South Mountain hike.

An afternoon at the Japanese Friendship Garden in Phoenix. Fujifilm X-T4 & XF 35mm f/1.4.

Pulled the trigger on the Fuji XF 70-300mm after playing with my old Canon 75-300mm kit lens via adapter. Not the sharpest, but worth testing.

Picked back up a short film I began working on last summer. Started over from scratch to refamiliarize myself with the footage.

We adopted Boji as a baby back in May 2024. He's more or less a full grown cat now, but he's still a tiny little guy.

As much as I liked the color straight out of the camera for those South Mountain pictures, I wanted to do more.

2025 is a fresh start. Decided to get to work early this year and cross off something that's been on my to-do list for all of 2024.

Sitting in my backyard with my X-T4 and the XF 18mm f/1.4 — tried out bracketing film simulations and dialing in settings.

Took a trip to Japan earlier this year and wanted to include some of the pictures I'd taken. I had the time of my life!

Friend and colleague Dr. Sean Leahy reached out to see if I could help him film an upcoming holiday event for his podcast.

First time at a Cardinals game with the Fujifilm X-T4 and XF 35mm f/1.4.

Had the great pleasure of meeting Juan Carrillo and working together to tell a story about the LFC program. Made with DaVinci Resolve.

Given substantial creative freedom on how to visually communicate this research project. Shot on Sony A7SII, made with DaVinci Resolve.

Event photography for the ASU MLFTC Cintana Post-Grad event. Fujifilm X-T4 with XF 18mm f/1.4 & XF 50-140mm f/2.8.

Boji relaxing in his favorite spot. Fujifilm X-T4 & XF 18mm f/1.4.

In a creative rut, starting over from scratch.
