Me, my wife and son went mountain hiking in Iceland

4 generations come together which includes my mom and grandmother. 

Capturing this time in history, one family at a time.

"The #TheFrontStepsProject is incredible. I was thankful to squeeze in some families before the Mandate to stay home started here in #Hawaii. For my project, I did the shoots for free and in exchange, I just asked that they make a donation to the @bgca_clubs of Hawaii. I was excited to make an impact in my local community doing something that I love. Thankful that we were able to reach families and community members that I (alone) would not have been able to help."

It was important to me that everyone felt free to express themselves!

“When I heard about this #TheFrontStepsProject, I knew it was something I wanted to do, and it felt like it had to be on #film. Film for me is the epitome of an uncurated and often imperfect snap of reality, and it seemed like the only way for me to honestly capture this time in history. It was a special few days before the shelter in place, mostly because social interaction felt so needed, and it was rare to have an excuse to see a friendly face. With that said, it was important to me that everyone involved felt free to express their current state as it was, I didn't want anyone to feel pressured to put on a happy face if they were feeling the weight of the world, and I didn't want people to pretend to be sad and scared if they were enjoying this time with loved ones and weren't in a darker place.”

This picture is special to me because it is a picture of my 2 babies, my daughter Harper who is 1.5 and our dog rocko who is 6. The love and bond between the 2 can melt anyone's heart. From the day we brought Harper home from the hospital he has been her protector. I took this photo at our home in our kitchen. I randomly walked in the kitchen and caught her smoochin his face. Had to snap a picture. He is not just an animal. He is our family and has been since my fiancé got him as a present 6 years ago for Christmas.

There is beauty in everything and in every moment. Teaching your loved ones how to appreciate the little things in life.

Big brother & his baby twin sister's spending time at the park❣

Gorgeous view from honeymoon drinks & appetizers at Relais Blu on Anacapri.

    catching my daughter and son in law cozying up ♥

Time to go to bed, but our Lizzy was not cooperating.  When I told her she had no choice, it was time to go nighty night and cuddle up, this is the look I got. ♥️

Good times with Great people ~crystal mountain Kodak Moments ☺️

Taking a moment to rest and enjoy the sunset with my mini anthropologist.

This sums us up ❤️? #meandbae #mygirl

On his photo shoot!!

Day dreaming

This was the first day these two met, after we brought baby N home. They had an instant connection and showed us that a brothers bond is like nothing else. 

Princess meeting her Great Grandpa! Just look at how she captured such a sweet moment. I think for both of them its live at first sight!

Every sunset is magical in its own way.  But a gorgeous sunset on the amazing California coast is always a #kodakmoment

Jinx, on guard...

Sunset at Barnegat light house in summers.

Me, my wife and son mountain hiking in Iceland

A picture that captures a cherished moment that special Bond between a little Boy and his dog, the stillness, the beauty, the surroundings the connection between all that represents the Pureness of innocence between a child, a dog and nature ❤️?

My boyfriend and I were having a wonderful time at our friends wedding. I guess there’s something about events such as weddings that truly bring out the purity in the love you have for one another. There’s no better feeling than being yourself with someone else. ❤️

We arrived at Vik around 2:00 pm, which put us right at the golden hour. The beach was quiet against the roughness of the landscape. (Camera - Pentax67, Film - Portra400)

Cuddles and hugs with my gorgeous son. Fathers love! 

My friends and me doing the Bataan Death March for ROTC core. Just overall having a great time.

My neighbor's pup wanted to share his toy with me. Coco is a little sweetheart and is always happy to see me. He has such expressive eyes...

Taken with the help of Instagram user sugarfuut two nights ago. 20 second exposure at iso 6400 Nikon d750.

I am amazed at how small this newborn baby was. I was trying to think of a way to show this when this happened!

I took this photo on one of the last days of 2019 along the Turnagain Arm nearby Anchorage, Alaska. It was a miserably cold day, and it was early in the morning. The weather did not look promising when out of nowhere this epic battle of light and darkness unfolded with sunshine breaking through, albeit only briefly. 

When you feel a gut instinct to capture the moment, trust it as you never know what you can come up with ?

Went out for an evening stroll as a family, and I wanted to capture a Kodak moment of my kids.  We live full time in an RV so outside time is crucial.  When I told them to smile, this was the result, lol.  Love my little hams!  

My daughter Gracelynn was so excited to wear her elsa dress in the Colorado snow!
