Wish You Were There

If you’re like me, you’re stuck at home daydreaming about the time you can get out of the house (without a mask) and explore the world a bit more. Since sightseeing and travel photography remains largely inaccessible for now, I wanted to share a collection of images from some of my favorite trips (so far!) in the hopes that a bit of virtual globetrotting will help you pass some of these socially distanced hours.

I’m looking forward to the days when we can discover new places and travel photography is a reality again.

I hope you and your family are staying safe and healthy and that we have the chance to work together in 2021.
