Madison Olivia at Lansing Brewing Co.She commanded the stage. It’s performances like these that remind me why I love photographing live music.

Colorado imprinted so much on my soul last year. I can’t wait to go back. Such an incredible, wild space.

This little screech owl is a permanent resident of the Kellogg Bird Sanctuary. I always love their grumpy little faces.

It’s been an incredibly busy year so I haven’t been able to get out to as many shows as I would like. I can’t wait to see Madison Olivia take the stage again soon - such a powerhouse performer and a hell of a show!

This little guy was deeply frustrated that it kept catching a stick - a juvenile great blue heron still learning!

At Kensington Nature Center.

This is great!

A beautiful Chestnut Teal at the aviary. They're native to Australia and so gorgeous.

When the world seams dark - create art.

A tree swallow in the morning sun. Something about these photos gives me such a sense of calm.

This red tail at Kensington seemed very intrigued by what I had to say.

Kensington is magical. So many trails, encounters with nature, and just a beautiful place. Michigan is beautiful.

An absolutely stunning snapper that I captured at Kensington Metro Park. I wonder what their story is.

Tulip Time in Holland,MI 🌷

Black and white photos from Tulip Time in Holland, MI.

Edited a ton of wildlife today when some deer decided to visit at dusk. Decided to do something trippy for fun.

I would buy this deer’s alternative folk album with this cover. Maybe a collab with Noah Kahan and Hozier?

Just some front yard friends. Felt good to get out and capture something just for the heck of it. Can’t wait for more nature and hikes as spring takes hold of Michigan!

Impeccable timing @johngreensbluesky.bsky.social but I am excited about this one!

In a world gone mad
Find peace in nature

Take breaks when you need too
Fight when you can

A guest 💕

Ok, we’ve got the fifty story hulking lizard monster…like a dinosaur but it breathes fire. But we need a potential nemesis…something that could take on this titan and win. Ideas?

🙋‍♂️: Moth.

Caracal at a wildlife sanctuary in Colorado. She was beautiful.

I mean, it’s worth a shot.

Last June in Rocky Mountain National Park , Colorado.

Moments in the chaos.

Earnest post, but: a thing I like here is it’s okay to have moments of happiness in public without being broadly scolded, and I believe that sustaining this kind of humanity will be very important as we resist fascism.

We have to sustain each other. Making joy isn’t denial, it’s how we will survive

My favorite place 💕

Craving the serenity and stillness of nature and Colorado while everything else is chaotic and loud.
