I often find myself overwhelmed with inspiration from Earth's beauty…

Captivating sunsets…

Long twisting train rides…

…and the chance to observe miles of landscape and varying terrain uninterrupted by the fast pace of everyday life.

I have always felt inspired (and at peace) when experiencing new places, new people, and new cultures.

We have so much to learn from the world, and I know I will never have enough time to see it all.

These moments of intense captivation and beauty are something I wish to bottle up and savor forever. There's no way to do this, but it seems that preserving these experiences through photography is the closest thing to accomplishing this urge.

It’s a privilege to walk along the bustling canals of Amsterdam, ride a cable car through the foggy mountains of Hong Kong, hear the soundscape of Mexico City, and be kissed by the infinite energy of New York City.

It’s moments like these that I wish to share with the world.
