we have the most to learn from the
places we avoid
each challenge we face is a unique gift
that turns us into the best teachers
i believe we are hardwired for novelty
and exploration and
as a photographer that means i'm always
looking for new ways to capture the
world around me
[Music]
my gear is the tool that brings my
creative vision to life
i want it to be versatile in whatever
situation that's thrown my way
it's got to be as light as possible for
those more adventurous missions
the air 2s is small enough to fit in
that empty corner of my pack and adds a
world of imagination to my shooting
process
[Music]
i want every photo i take to be
impossible to recreate and every video
to tell a piece of a greater story
this means always being on the hunt for
those perfect conditions and learning
how to shoot the not so perfect ones
the newest tech allows my creativity to
flow without constraints
i no longer have to worry about
resolution battery life or weight
[Music]
i can't capture these moments without
putting myself in these uncomfortable
situations
as a viewer you only see the perfect
sunsets not the rainy failed attempts
the struggle to get that perfect shot
goes seemingly unnoticed most of the
time
i'm not sure what drives me to create
like this i feel this impulse that
forces me to embrace the discomfort
the early mornings the blisters and the
cold fingers
i use these photography tools to
translate the feeling of appreciation
for the world around me into a story
a story that inspires people to face the
places they avoid and drive themselves
to get comfortable with discomfort
because ultimately that's what teaches
us the most
