It’s been almost six months since my book entered the world and I couldn’t be more proud!
I have plenty of copies available on my website, amazon, or your best option so they don’t have to be shipped at all - at your local bookstore ❤️

Living Tree Carvings in Sayward BC for @thenarwhalca
Created by Indigenous artists Max Chickite, Junior Henderson, and Karver Everson, these carvings are made in living trees in the H’kusam Forest In 2024 and 2025, carvers from the K’omox, We Wai Kai and Wei Wai Kum nations carved two xwax’wana, or canoes, from windfall cedars in H’kusam Forest, as well as living poles celebrating the nations’ culture and history in Sayward, B.C.
Absolutely beautiful, and even though we went hiking as a group to see the carvings, there was still this amazing element of surprise to find these in the middle of the forest.

Ever wonder where your white button mushrooms come from? Well if you’re in southern B.C. or just south of the border in Washington they probably come from here, Farmers Fresh Mushrooms in Abbotsford BC.
White mushrooms grow year-round in misty warehouses stacked in boxes on top of each other. The soil, made up of chicken poop, is turned over every three harvests.
I love the wonderful and unexpected places the camera takes me and Farmers Fresh last October was no exception.

Special thanks to @cloverjune for the assist on this one. 🍄🟫🍄🍄🟫🍄🙌🏻
No photo or video could really do justice to this day, the low rumble, the energy. We watched the eruption for hours.
By the time we left volcano national park it was late and we were starving. Crazy that there is a pizza place 20 minutes from an erupting volcano. This world is something else.
I’ve finally decided to share some of what I’ve been working on onto Instagram after a long break. A lot has been happening behind the scenes over here.
I have some work from last year to share and some long time projects finally coming to the light. Oh and an epic roadtrip planned this summer.
The Endurance issue of @trailsmag wasn’t one I initially thought I had anything to contribute to. I love hiking, but I haven’t done anything of epic proportions in distance or speed. A week-long sojourn into the woods is usually all I have time for.
But ever since I photographed the Rust Rivers in Alaska three summers ago, partially caused by the frozen bedrock in the region my interest in geology has only grown. I’ve watched the newest rocks in the world form at the base of a lava fountain in Hawaii, found trilobites (ancient sea creatures) in Burgess Shale region of Yoho National Park and seen the folds in the Alps as the plates of Africa and Europe push together. I have a growing library of pictures of all of these formations.
At that moment when photo editor @taylormckenzie.creative emailed me (another Tay/Tay collaboration), I was reading Reading the Rocks by Marcia Bjornerud, and when I started thinking about a pitch, the question of Endurance shifted. It wasn’t about distance or speed. It was about time.
What on earth is more enduring than the rock record?
I pulled my archive together, it has been something I’d been thinking about doing anyways and today I’m so excited to share part of my rock collection - Time Scales in Trails Magazine issue 13!

2025 in places and assignments and events. A very selective and completely biased by omission look at some of the highlights this year.
This year I focused on being in person, a physical showing of my work, talks, prints, studio tours (if you want one I’m happy to have you, let me know!) and sharing on Instagram was not the priority, especially the last six months.
But I feel compelled and reflective today so here are some postcards from a trip to Hawaii, an assignment for Scientific American in Nunavut, travel commissions around Vancouver and Victoria for the Lonely Planet, Touristing in Italy, but also the sun flowers in our driveway, a mushroom farm for Farm Credit Canada, an International Women’s Day photographers event I hosted with friends, the Nat Geo Explorers Ottawa Workshop, a story on forest tenure logging on Vancouver Island for The Narwhal, and the Anchorage Museum.
2026 😄 I already know there are some big changes in store and I’m ready for it.
If you heard about my trip to Tombstone Territorial Park a few years ago you heard about our car’s thermostat breaking, and driving 100km with the heat on full blast just trying to make it to Dawson City, waiting a week for the part and then having no mechanic available for two weeks, so having to learn the “bush” mechanics we needed to take the Tuscan all the way home. What an adventure!
Thankfully there was no accident or emergency, and but along most of Yukons highways if you really need cell service you are out of luck.
Today in @globeandmail a few shots from my archive of drives down roads where service is still a long ways off.
Thanks to Photo-editor: @photo_editor_clare for thinking of me
Live last week on @natgeo - Alaska Rivers are turning bright orange.
I’m so grateful this work is finding a home on National Geographic. Permafrost thaw, and the erosion of what little environmental protections we have in North America, is as big a threat as ever and amplifying the finding of research from the remote corners of the globe helps us all to understand and act. 🌎🌏
Big thank yous to Writer: @loisparshley who brought the research to life, and

Happy to share Alaska’s Rust Rivers is being extended at the @anchoragemuseum from October 2025 until February 2026.
This video made up of a combination of vantage points both aerial and at a natural eye level narrate both the scale of climate change in the area and an individuals observation of their own impact.
