Chicago, Illinois
My girlfriend and I traveled to Chicago at the end of November and into the beginning of December. It was cold (as low as -6 °F wind chill the morning we photographed The Bean!), but so much fun. Our diet consisted of 90% deep dish pizza, we found some amazing pour over coffee, and got to experience my Dad’s hometown. We truly had so much fun.

All the photographs were created using a Canon R5 Mark II with a 15-35mm or 70-200mm lens, or an iPhone 16 Pro Max. These pictures were edited in Adobe Lightroom Classic.
Berkeley, California
Over the past several months, I completed a master’s degree at UC Berkeley. During that time I developed a running collection of photographs from Berkeley, California. Berkeley gave me so much in my short time there, and I’m grateful for the experience. I fell in love with the weather, the energy…I just loved it.

Below are some of my favorite images. All the photos were created with a Canon EOS R5 and edited in Adobe Lightroom Classic.
The last picture features a man I met one morning. He seemed to be having a tough time, so I asked how he was. He said he was feeling a little depressed and we ended up talking for about 30 minutes. I learned how smart he is (he could code in five different languages), how he loves his family, and how he misses his seven year-old daughter. His name is Brandon and I’m glad I met him.
San Francisco, California
During the course of the three-day weekend for Martin Luther King Jr. Day, I went to San Francisco, California with two friends. We photographed the Golden Gate Bridge, downtown San Francisco, and the East side of San Francisco. It was an awesome experience!

All the photographs were created using a Canon 5D Mark IV along with a 16-35mm lens. The wide-angle provided some challenges for the street photography, but it forced me to get creative and make use of what I had available.
