Guess Who’s Back?

Tap, tap, tap…is this think on???
Well hey there, beautiful humans. It’s been a minute, hasn’t it? After a 7+year break (thanks to an injury that benched more than just my sneakers), I’m thrilled to say…
I’m back!
Not sprinting marathons—but walking steady, camera in hand, and heart wide open. And oh baby, I’ve got snapshots, stories, and soul to share.
So grab your flip-flops and a good cup of coffee. Let’s wade back in. There’s magic in these waves—and I’ve been waiting to show you.

Healing, Reflection…and a Camera Roll Full of Truth
While I was recovering from surgery, I spent a lot of time being still—physically, mentally,spiritually. But that stillness? It opened a door. I started flipping through old photographs… and reconnected with a part of myself I thought I’d lost.
📸I discovered a quiet power in those images. A thread back to my creative soul.
I wrote about it all in my new post, where I talk about mindfulness, photography, and what it means to find your way home again.

“Through My Eyes” – The Book
What does a recovering photographer do with time on his hands, a stubborn streak, and thousands of seascapes? He makes a book.
Through My Eyes is a deeply personal collection of my favorite images, paired with the stories behind them. It’s not just a photo book—it’s a visual memoir. A love letter to light, time, and second chances.
