Hiking to Taft Point is short and sweet. The payoff is huge for the minimal effort. That being said, the luck of catching a bird flying at the same time was something i couldn’t predict.
Glacier Point is easily one of my favorite places to watch sunrise. This was taken on a chilly fall morning just above the Panorama trail just as the sun peaked over the mountain range, and color filled the valley below.
Headed into Yosemite in search of Fall colors!
I was crouched down, photographing this guy about 25ft away in one of the meadows in Yosemite National Park, when the sound of the shutter peaked his interest. This Mule Deer buck walked up, stood over me, and just stared into my lens. I just sat there, taking photo after photo, but at the same time just looking at him and taking in the moment. There was no aggression. There was no threat. Just two living beings looking at one another. After a few minutes, he walked away and that was it.
This was taken shortly after the sun had risen just above Half Dome and just filled the valley with this beautiful golden light.

The daily grind of living in the Bay Area was getting my girlfriend and I down, so we decided to go and relax in Yosemite. We were met with the most beautiful spring and welcomed the relaxing views with open arms.
Photo was taken, across the gorge, of newlyweds that were posing for photos with another photographer.

The setting sun lights up El Capitan as it fades into dusk. Each year I make the pilgrimage to Yosemite to photograph the Firefalls, which is great. And while I love to photograph that event I find myself always coming back to Valley View. While it may be overly photographed, Valley View is just a simply beautiful view under the right light. I photographed this with my secondary camera as my D810 was on a Syrp slider track capturing a timelapse.

While photographing coyotes in Yosemite, a raven aggressively swooped in and caught its attention.
This was my first time experiencing Half Dome - the views from Glacier Point are wild.
For approximately two weeks a year, Yosemite's Horsetail Falls is transformed into the annual Firefall. A phenomenon unlike any other.
El Capitan as majestic as ever under the snow
