Even though it's fall, California beaches make summer just a drive away

Sometimes the best photos are taken on the way home instead of on the way there.

Shooting in the Oceano Dunes in black and white never gets old.

Taken beyond face value, every cityscape is unique.

When a ship runs aground, the past always leaves traces..

You don't see it, but there were dozens of takes that went into catching the wave and the reflection

When I moved out to the California central coast, Maddie showed me a quiet place on Pismo Beach where the sunsets are stunning.

The rising tide will put you to sleep if you let it...

Can we take a moment and pretend we're about to go see a show? Or maybe a movie?

A beach a day keeps the blues away

No beach photoshoot would be complete without messing around in the waves.
