My first photography workshop, my first trip to Grand Canyon, and a sunrise that taught me what seven years of craft looks like in reverse.

Sunset over the Grand Canyon from my first photography workshop, 2019. Went out solo the night before the conference and the sky put on a show.

Long exposure at Arches National Park as the park empties out at sunset — car light trails, stars coming in, and the canyon going quiet.
