Covered the “No Kings” protest today in Seattle.
No violence — just color, satire, and conviction.
Call it absurd, call it art, but it’s undeniably American.

Photography isn’t just art, it’s intention.
This shot at Wallace Falls State Park was made with my Fujifilm and an old-school star filter I found in Japan. No shortcuts, just patience and light.

Rows of guitars, a quiet hum, and a kid chasing his first sound.
Fatherhood’s funny like that, you don’t pass down your rhythm, you just help them find theirs.

There’s something humbling about standing in an elevator, heading to a doctor who actually wants to help you heal. For years, I was taught to “tough it out.” Now, I’m learning that healing takes courage too.

it’s about boundaries.
Light only becomes shape when it’s framed.
Still experimenting with simplicity.

Quick trip to Guitar Center with my son turned into an alleyway find. Graffiti’s one of those raw art forms — misunderstood but magnetic. I’ve met artists mid-spray before; a nod’s all it takes. Respect among creators.

Wallace Falls, WA., proof that nature composes better than we ever could.
This marks the start of a collaboration series with my son, stories in light, shadow, and reflection.

Birthdays feel strange, but moving from city to city with the #dayjob has made me appreciate the friends who make each place feel like home.

It was a failed portrait, technically. But it means more to me now than I expected.

D and I clicked instantly. Her wife? A quiet fire. Their love is calm, constant, like warmth you never question. I hope everyone finds a love that good.

Stopped in Ellicott City, an old railroad town where rust and memory hang in the air. The refinery towers stand like sentinels, watching over creeks and cobblestones. A dream once forged in steel and smoke still lingers here.

As a teen, I felt stuck in Chicago, watching others leap ahead. But I learned to love the city anyway.

The Navy gave me wings. That tower gave me purpose.

Chicago doesn’t just build towers, it tells stories in concrete and glass.

Marina City was meant to be a city within a city: parking, apartments, a marina, even a theater. I look up and wonder about the lives behind those glowing balconies.

Seattle’s views come with hills, and my legs weren’t ready. New motivation to walk more.

The Seattle Freeze? It’s real. But I hope this city never takes my warmth. I’ll keep smiling, keep saying hello. Hope I always keep this energy.

It’s 2am. My last night in a hotel before I trade the city’s chaos for something more still. I wonder about the 17-year-old version of me—what kind of life he would’ve built here.

The obligatory Space Needle shot.

Posting from a Queen Anne café, waiting for the next puzzle piece to drop. If things align, this might be my view for a long while. Seattle’s calling, softly but clearly.

First Frame.
I’ve arrived in Seattle, and honestly, I’m in awe. It’s a real city, with real beauty and real problems.

You were my first love, Chicago. And now, I know I have to let you go. But know this: I will always adore you, my fair city.

Women have long been part of the U.S. combat team, serving with strength, skill, and unwavering dedication. Their ambitions push boundaries, their sacrifices protect us all.

Echoes from Belarus.

A few years ago, I traveled through Belarus, never imagining it would soon be swept into war. I rode the train from Minsk, capturing fleeting moments, faces, landscapes, my partner in travel.
