RubberTramp Rendezvous - Van Party in the Desert

Every winter, thousands of nomads descend upon Quartzsite, Arizona for two-three weeks of connection, campfires & camping under the stars. The RubberTramp Rendezvous (RTR) draws a vast array of individuals & lots of sweet vans, trucks & DIY homes on wheels.

Fire on the Mountain

Often with fires on my district, we tend to get stuck in some drainage with limited views, darkness & the ensuing morning light arrive without fanfare. This most recent fire however was the complete opposite.

My First Major Commercial Shoot: Nissan

A few years ago, I had the opportunity to work with Nissan as they launched the opening of a new dealership in Cleveland, TN. I was charged with capturing images of the brand in recognizable places around the Cleveland/Chattanooga region, while leveraging my personal followings to build hype.

Four Lakes? Or Was It Five?

During the fire season, we often spend hundreds of hours hiking packs, saws, supplies all over the woods, fighting fires, clearing trails, doing project work. So often times going backpacking “just for the fun of it” loses its luster. But it’s important to get out, explore, photograph & experience some nature just for yourself.

Diving Into Forest Service History at Beaver Creek

The Beaver Creek Ranger Station was built in 1935 by the Civilian Conservation Corps. It includes a historic ranger residence, office and barn/shop/garage. In 1993, it officially made the National List of Historic Places for its unique Craftsman/Bungalow-style architecture.

Buddy in Town

A few months ago, I convinced a fellow Forest Service buddy of mine to come down to Tucson to hang for a day or two. I first met Jon Carnill when I worked for the FS summer of ‘18. We spent our time hunting down cool hikes, chilling by creeks, making bonfires & just shooting the shit about life in general. It was a grand time.

Breakers & Entering

Recently, I explored Tucson’s abandoned waterpark, Breakers, both beloved and hated by many. Opened in 1982, the waterpark fell on hard times & was shuttered in early 2018. Reasons for its closure included a park riddled with maintenance problems, health & ethical problems (like the minimum wage increasing) & falling attendance.

Cast a Line at Rose Canyon Lake

On a remarkably crisp, clear February day, my friends CJ & Connor decided it would be fun to play a little hooky from work, head up Mt. Lemmon & try our luck at fly fishing at Rose Canyon Lake. As we unfolded out of the car & made the short walk to the lake, we realized we were in for a treat: we were its only visitors.
