A list of the gear I carry with me everyday.
I was looking through my backlog of photos and came across our trip to Big Bend. I was amazed to realize it's almost been a year since we were there.
There's something about the change in seasons that makes me want to take road trips, to bundle up in the car and just pick a direction and drive until the scenery is different.

There's a lot of personality here and I loved the unique headstones. I loved the little bits of story and reading about the person's life. One of my favorites had Give life the best that's in you for it's only a one night stand there are no repeat performances brought back by popular demand.
It's an incredible spot, one of the most beautiful places I've ever seen, and despite my fear of heights I enjoyed sitting at a safe distance and enjoying the view.
To me, it was just a sunset, not a particularly pretty one, nothing spectacular, just day slowly moving into night. But to him it was photograph worthy, to be oohed and aahed over, to be recorded and remembered as being spectacular.
This was our last cemetery stop on our trip in New Orleans and it turned out to be my favorite.
Dallas seems to be a city we end up in a lot. Usually we're passing through, on our way to or from some place else, places down dirt roads and hiking trails. But this time we set it as our destination and took the scenic way down.
At the base of the falls you can look up, into rushing water and sunlight, deafened by the roaring water.
Norman has a small town feel, maybe because of the collage, it seems that a lot of collage towns feel the same, but I always think of it as part of Oklahoma City for some reason.
I HAVE A STRANGE FEELING WITH REGARD TO YOU. AS IF I HAD A STRING SOMEWHERE UNDER MY LEFT RIBS, TIGHTLY KNOTTED TO A SIMILAR STRING IN YOU.

Something I've found myself loving is photographing HEMA tournaments. When I picked up a camera a few years ago I never thought I'd be in the position to photograph this kind of thing.
I've always loved the Plaza District and there are times when I really miss living in that area. It's changed so much over the last few years and become one of the coolest places in the city.
I don't think anyone would argue if I said the best part is the food. I love the deep fried everything, especially the Twinkies.
THERE MUST BE QUITE A FEW THINGS THAT A HOT BATH WON’T CURE, BUT I DON’T KNOW MANY OF THEM.

Logically I know these moments are fleeting. Sometimes I feel it. And sometimes I feel like I'm doing good just to get their faces washed and teeth brushed.
I'm never going to get tired of bragging about my cousin. Seriously, this woman is incredible. She's dedicated, caring, and honest.
It turned out to be one of the best decisions of the trip. Maybe it was the time of day; the setting sun working it's golden hour magic, the ocean so clear and so blue, the wildlife, the flora, everything about this stretch of coastline was incredible.
We found this short loop off a scenic highway in Cameron Parish and even on an overcast rainy day we still saw a lot of wildlife.
