Born and raised in Washington, I carry a deep-seated love for the Pacific Northwest that has only grown stronger since moving to the East Coast. Even from afar, I find myself yearning for the familiar embrace of the lush forests and majestic mountains of my first home state. The natural beauty of Western Washington, particularly in places like Olympic National Park, sits warmly in my heart.

Returning to my roots through photography, I often find myself reminiscing about the landscapes that first sparked my passion for nature and photography. The Olympic Mountains, with their mist-shrouded peaks and rugged grandeur, are a testament to the raw and captivating beauty that shaped my early years. The Olympic Park’s diverse ecosystems, from dense rain-forests to cliff-lined beaches, offer endless inspiration and opportunities for capturing nature’s splendor.

The Pacific Northwest has a uniquely temperate collection of flora, fauna, and stunning vistas; it's a true haven for anyone looking to connect with the wild heart of our planet. The call of the Olympic National Park is impossible to ignore, and it’s a journey that promises to enrich your appreciation of nature’s wonders.
