Wildlife, Macro, and more photos from my trip to Texas

in , , , ,

I recently took a trip with my mom to Texas to visit my sister and dad. I was able to take a few small hikes and found some fun animals to take photos of. The trip was intended to visit with family and not to go out into the woods to find exotic wildlife but I am glad I was able to see the animals I saw. Also, my sister’s cat Sophia was there.

in , , , ,

I moved to Portland in 2016 with essentially zero experience with photography and no idea what Portland had to offer. My brother Josh had been doing videography and photography for a long time and he wanted to start a business. He invited me to move in with him to become partners in the business and I quit my job and moved to Portland where we started Fractal Focus LLC. In order to familiarize myself with photography, I borrowed my brother’s Canon 5d Mark III with a 70-200 lens and took a walk around the Glendoveer Walking Path.
