The American Southwest
The landscapes of the American Southwest are truly unique. The deserts and badlands of Utah and Arizona were some of the first places that made me fall in love with photography. Having grown up in the Northeast United States, the Southwest felt like a whole different planet. I’ve spent countless sunrises and sunsets chasing some of the most remote and unique vistas and rock formations across this region of the United States.
