Shooting Film: Dog Mountain

August 28, 2017

My first time hiking Dog Mountain, and I was carrying 25 pounds of camera gear. Probably not the best idea, but I had to train for harder hikes coming up pretty, pretty soon.

Shooting digital in one of the most stunning places in Oregon

July 29, 2017

I get very excited every time I come back from a hike to a breathtaking place. And there are plenty in Oregon! But this one... I don't think I'm overreacting, or am I?

Shooting film - Moonrise

July 12, 2017 in journal

Last week, out of ideas of where to go or what to shoot, I remembered the moon would be full soon. I had only shot the moon a few times before, so I thought it could be a cool thing to try to capture on film.

Shooting film at Larch Mountain

June 23, 2017 in journal

I'm still getting familiar with [my new Bronica](https://aows.co/blog/my-new-camera-bronica-sq-ai), so I've been looking for all kind of light situations to get to know it as much as I can. I also have a few new lenses to try!

Photos from our Washington Road Trip, Vol. I

June 20, 2017

A few weeks ago, we went on a road trip through Washington, from the most northwestern point to the desert on the southeast. I didn't touch the photos I took for weeks, trying to get a fresh new look at them and hopefully come up with a better selection of pictures.

But it's about to time to publish them, and this past weekend I uploaded a few of them to the "archive". Check these new albums:

  • Olympic Peninsula
  • Puget Sound
  • Wenatchee National Forest
  • Wild Horses Monument

My new camera: unpacking the Bronica SQ-Ai

After weeks of researching, and visiting used gear sites a few times a day, I was finally able to get what is now my new camera: a Bronica SQ-Ai.

St John's Bridge, my first print

May 27, 2017

This is one of the photos I'd been wanting to make for a while. It required specific conditions (fog), so even though I knew I'd eventually get it, I had no idea when this was going to happen.

Wasco County

May 21, 2017

Wasco County might not be what you first think of when Oregon comes to mind, but I absolutely love shooting there: the windmills, the vast landscape, the canyons, the rolling hills, the solitude...

This is the first collection I publish on this website, you can see the first 13 photos from Wasco County here. I still have to work on a few more and I'm planning on going back there soon, so this collection will grow up.

I'll also be posting this collection on my Instagram account this week, you can follow along over there if you prefer.

Published my first book, new website, and I'm back!

May 20, 2017

I've been away for a while now, not posting on my blog / Instagram / Unsplash / you name it as often as I used to. I did not stop taking pictures though, and I've also been working on a couple new projects I'm very excited about.

Early morning, Merced River

May 03, 2017

The Merced River is famous for its course through Yosemite Valley, but the road along its waters (one of the many that lead to the National Park) is almost as beautiful.
