Oh hi guys👋 I am back from my hiatus. Where have I been? Glad you asked.
Spent another season in Mexico aboard @svavocet having lots of fun with friends, and flying home for a few cool shoots here and there.
Last November my wife and I bought 5 acres in the mountains that we named @runagroundranch which is where we will spend our time when we aren't sailing.
Things have been busy with work, sailing, land life and everything in between but I'll do my best to update this page more frequently... starting with this post, which is from my most recent car commercial shoot in Denver Colorado where I was first AC. Hope you all have been doing well!

Isla Isabel is for the birds! But really, it is. This little island is home to a large colony of Magnificent Frigatebirds (frigata magnificens) which we soon learned have NO fear of humans. Unlike the Channel Islands in California, no rangers keep these birds from nesting on the trail meaning you get real up close and personal with these monsters that have a wingspan of 85 - 88 inches 🤯 We were lucky enough to arrive during nesting season and got to see lots of fluffy babies in the trees. They may have been babies, but they were already bigger than our cat 😳 As we continued along the trail the sound of frigates squeaking overhead was very reflective of Jurassic Park, but despite their prehistoric size and behavior they were very docile… unlike the Boobies we met that were looking to scrap. But more on that later 😉
We couldn't fly over alot of the anchorages we visited on @svavocet with a drone because we obey the No Drones in National Parks rule... so getting arial footage with @seaplaneadventures was the next logical step.
Speaking of #Italy, my pal Mitch (@mitchisword ) let me borrow his #OlympusFilm camera for the trip which resulted in a lot of great shots - In this photo, I am taking a photo of the Tuscan countryside during golden hour, using no other than #KodakGold 💛 Maybe I will share the results later. Maybe not.
Okay, okay, one more camera-and-water-shot just in case you didn't believe the frequency of this combination 🤠 A little #throwback to the #SaturniaHotsprings in #Italy 🇮🇹
