Finally, Palo Duro Canyon and Caprock Canyons called me back. I enlisted the company of a friend and outdoor enthusiast (my friend, Ross) and we were off for a mid-week trip to these panhandle parks...

I’ve always liked black and white images. To me, they can often bring a sense of nostalgia – a return to the good ‘ol days when things were simpler, and sometimes both harder yet more rewarding...

This past Autumn, I had an idea of photographing the Red Star Hoodoo of Palo Duro Canyon with a backdrop of stars. From where this lesser known structure sits just off the trail, it is relatively easy to downclimb into a valley and shoot upwards toward the hoodoo with the twinkling of a million stars overhead...

Several weeks ago, I set off for Colorado, eagerly anticipating photographing Autumn’s splendor in the Rocky Mountains for ten beautiful days. But I also recognized that I’d be driving right by Palo Duro Canyon as I made my way north...

Slenderman Slot Canyon, a slot canyon just on the outside of Palo Duro Canyon, had been a place I’d heard about, and finally, thanks to my friend, Todd (aka the Caprock Canyoneer, I would at long last be able to witness this natural creation for myself...

I was not made to sit inside. The outdoors calls me – is my happy place. And my photography is was allows me to seek out adventures across Texas and beyond. The last time I had my camera out was to photograph the comet NEOWISE, and that was in late July...

The week before Thanksgiving, a friend and I set out for a quick hiking and photography trip to Palo Duro Canyon. This gem in the Texas panhandle is one of my favorite areas as well as one of my best-selling locations for prints...
