Embark on an inspiring photographic expedition through the awe-inspiring landscapes of Yosemite National Park. This book chronicles my personal journey as a seasoned photographer, sharing the challenges and triumphs of capturing its most iconic and hidden vistas. It's an intimate look at how the pursuit of landscape photography has become a spiritual practice for me, especially after the loss of my son.

Designed for explorers eager to learn and be inspired by landscape photography, this book delves into my creative process. Discover how I interpret Yosemite's unique light, master composition, and employ post-processing techniques to bring the grandeur of granite cliffs, ancient sequoias, and cascading waterfalls to life. I invite you to find your unique perspective and capture the magic of the wild, just as I do, with my son Scotty in spirit guiding my lens. Join me and my daughters, Caitlin and Jessica, as we explore the profound beauty of Yosemite and the joy of creating art together.

Start Writing NowFor over forty years, I've been devoted to capturing the breathtaking beauty of landscapes and wildlife through my lens. The profound loss of my son, Scotty, has deepened my connection to the natural world, drawing me outdoors to find solace and a closer communion with nature and the heavens, always feeling his spirit beside me. A few years after Scotty's passing, my daughters, Caitlin and Jessica, joined me on a memorable trip to Yosemite. Caitlin has since embraced my passion for photography, and together we've embarked on further adventures, including a recent road trip to the Pacific Northwest for a new photo excursion. I cherish the opportunity to teach my girls about photography, hoping to inspire them to continue this creative path. I look forward to many more scenic adventures with my wife and my two wonderful daughters.
