## Caption

Returned home from Alaska, and while flying around Mendenhall Glacier I couldn’t help but take a step back and have a moment. 8 years ago I visited Juneau as my 50th state of Alaska with Brandon Clement. Sleeping either in my car, or on his hotel couch using a Sony camera Jonathan Petramala let me use for the trip. 

Fast forward 8 years later. I’m here working, staying in a nice, cozy hotel, shooting with my own Sony cameras and drones, and supporting as many local businesses I can for Dinner. Its easy to get so busy building this career, that you forget to look back at how far you’ve come and I can’t help but leave Alaska with a big smile on my face. Can’t wait to see what more opportunities await my future.
