An Earth Day Pledge.⁣ Before I was an #adventurelopement photographer, I was an adventurer. I was so passionate about the transformative power of nature's playground that I went to work in the outdoor industry, creating content for social media because I wanted to inspire EVERYONE to go connect with the earth. I knew the impact outdoor recreation had on me and I wanted to inspire more people to get healthier, happier, and more fulfilled by exploring the natural world. I felt like the more people could reconnect and Rewild, the better off humanity would be. I became a photographer because I wanted to help our planet. After all, historically photography has been a vital tool in environmental protection. Unfortunately, I was good at what I did, and so were other photographers and online content contributors. In the time I ran social media for Helly Hansen and Eddie Bauer, the outdoors went viral. Before I knew it, some of my most cherished wild places became overpopulated, and their delicate ecosystems devastated by human impact. It has been heartbreaking to watch, and even more heartbreaking to know that nature photographers like myself have been part of the problem. For a long time I shied away from sharing my adventures and sharing my work. I became disenchanted with inspiring the masses to get outdoors. Ultimately, I've realized that "hiding" is not the solution, but making a personal commitment to environmental conservation and leave no trace principles IS the solution. Today, I'm excited, because now I can take that commitment one step further. I'm excited to announce that I have joined the Nature First Photography movement, an alliance of outdoor photographers committed to minimizing human impact in the wilderness. I'm excited to begin sharing #naturefirst principles, and elated to be a part of the solution. When you select your #elopementphotographer you have a choice. I encourage you to choose someone who can demonstrate not just their commitment to capturing incredible moments in nature, but also their commitment to protecting the beautiful areas you will visit together. #adventureelopementphotographer Monday night didn’t suck! I was tailing the jib in last night’s Ballard Cup race. With heavy wind I was less excited to personally fly the spinnaker, but still had such a fun night out with friends! We even managed to dodge the rain! See that white jacket with the neon yellow? 👋 #hellyhansen #feelalive So in love with these shots from Tamara and Joseph’s elopement that I took for my #adventureelopement and #outdoorwedding company @lovelightweddingphoto.
