Here is one of our covers for the year…from Territory Ahead. It was taken on San Miguel Island, one of The Channel Islands off the coast of Santa Barbara, California. It was an amazing day where the fog cleared enough to illuminate the white sand beaches on this wild island. We hiked up to the top of the island through a diverse and interesting landscape. You can visit this island on a kayak tour with Channel Islands Outfitters. We highly recommend it!! Hike, kayak, dive, fish…an adventurers dream!

We’re just home from an epic scuba diving trip down to the Revillagigedo Islands and the Sea of Cortez with the Nautilus Explorer. These deserted and far away islands including Socorro, San Benedicto, and Roca Partida are about 250 miles off the tip of Baja, or 30 hours by boat. The islands are volcanic in nature and home to a plethora of marine life including Pacific Giant Mantas, a variety of sharks, dolphins, whales and more. Here is a taste of the view above water…stay tuned for our underwater shots next!

The latest issue of Via Magazine has one of our photos from the Valley of Fire, a red rock playground, outside of Las Vegas, Nevada. When visiting Vegas, not many people explore outside of the city, but this is definitely worth the trip. The rock lights up a vibrant red at sunset and there are many hiking trails to explore. If you look closely, behind the guy standing in the photo, you’ll see some petroglyphs as well. Check it out!

Check out the latest Organic Gardening Magazine to see an assignment we shot for them. We went to a Montecito home to shoot this beautifully landscaped yard. One part of the article talks about how the design and plant choice shows seasonal color that compliments the modern lines and architecture of the home. Being gardeners ourselves (or we try to be!) and inspired by modern design, this was a fun shoot!

Here’s a peak at some of the photos made on a recent rafting trip to the Salmon River in Idaho. We had about the same range in weather as we did in rapids- from sunshine to storms and from smooth calm water to adrenaline pumping rapids. It was an adventurous experience navigating the turns of the river in both a raft and an inflatable kayak. Sam Castaldo was a great guide and I’d ride with him any day! Enjoy the photos!

Here are some recent photos from a trip up to Bishop Creek Canyon in the Eastern Sierras. Even on a busy weekend, we were able to find an incredible campsite right next to Bishop Creek. We relaxed by the campfire and even caught some trout 10 feet from our site. We fished at Intake II and North Lake while making a kayak excursion on South Lake. We had incredible cool mountain weather and could see hints of fall colors. Enjoy!

Our stock library is constantly growing. It’s always fun to come across images and rework them. After processing this one and looking at it more, the sky is amazing. The dock leading out to the huge storm cell can be interpreted in so many ways… This huge storm supercell grew quickly on the horizon of the Laguna Madre when we were fishing for redfish a year or two back on the Texas Gulf Coast. As the storm approached rapidly, James kept telling the guide, “one more, one more shot” and within minutes the storm blanketed the skies and turned day into what felt like night. Our guide, Freddie Lynch (the best guide down there) jetted to the nearest fishing camp and we ran for cover while the storm passed. Not the photos we were thinking we would get, but definitely keepers!

On a recent photo trip to Bodie State Historic Park, James took pictures along Highway 395. Stops included Owens Valley, Virginia Lakes, Mono Lake, the mountains above Bridgeport. Bodie is the largest ghost town in America with over 100 buildings that are in an ‘arrested decay.’ During the gold rush of 1879, it was once the second largest city in California behind San Francisco. James had special access to video and photograph the interior of many buildings as well! Check out the photos…
