Coastal Adventures

Untouched

Botany Bay is an incredible region of untouched beauty. That is to say, it is untouched by man. As a Heritage Preserve it is a protected area, and it feels raw! It’s refreshing to go to a place like that and experience nature as it should be.

This shot was from our first morning […]

Contrast

The stark contrast of decay against life giving light and water is incredible. This was captured back in January when Colby Brown and Peyton Hale came down to explore the region.

Only 7 days left until we head back to this spot among others for the Charleston Spring Workshop with John MacLean.

Hope you […]

An abstract from the other night when I headed out to shoot the lighthouse. Unfortunately the best sky was directly out to sea and not anywhere near the lighthouse and so I put together a […]

“Calm Before”
Isle of Palms, SC
#4

A brief interlude during the downpour as the sun peaks through. Only for a moment and then the storm is back.

Folly Beach, SC
#8
