My landscape photography is more than just pretty images made for social media. It’s a practice rooted in patience, respect for the land, and a commitment to leaving places exactly as I found them.
These landscapes are more than scenery. They are living ecosystems, public lands held in trust, and places with deep cultural history. When you purchase a print, you are also supporting an approach to photography that puts respect first.
I follow Leave No Trace principles whenever I’m outdoors, especially in fragile places like alpine areas, deserts, shorelines, and cryptobiotic soils. That means traveling on durable surfaces when possible, avoiding trampling vegetation, not moving rocks or “improving” a scene, packing out everything brought in, and leaving each location exactly as it was found so others can experience it, too.
Wild animals deserve space. I do not approach, crowd, bait, call, or otherwise alter wildlife behavior for a photo. When wildlife is present, I rely on appropriate equipment like longer lenses, patience, and observation from a respectful distance. If an animal changes its behavior because of me, I’m already too close.
Many of the places we now call parks, monuments, and public lands are also Indigenous homelands, with stories and stewardship that long predate the United States. These landscapes carry the legacy of displacement and forced removal of Native peoples. I try to move through these places with humility, gratitude, and respect, and I encourage anyone visiting to learn whose land they are on and to treat cultural sites, artifacts, and sacred places with care.
Thank you for supporting landscape photography that values conservation, responsibility, and respect. If you ever have questions about where a photo was taken or how to visit a location responsibly, I’m happy to help.
