We had some problems with our plane but fortunately @malabooboo and @simonschmuki held on tight. (at Sólheimasandur)

Those of you who were following my Instagram stories know I was exploring Iceland last week with @malabooboo and @simonschmuki We had terrible weather most of the time, but the trip was still amazing. You can't go wrong exploring Iceland no matter what the weather, especially with good friends. - What you don’t see in this photo is how freezing cold I was as the icy falls sprayed down into my rain jacket and my boots got soaked. Totally worth it. - #Seljalandsfoss #waterfall (at Seljalandsfoss)

Family photo in Maui last week. So grateful for the daily moments we have together. (at Kaanapali, Hawaii)

What kind of 🍷do you prefer? - Sometimes the best drone shots are not very high off the ground (at Paso Robles, California)

Conquering sunrise. Or something. - Yes, the sand is really that color. 👍 - #roadtohana (at Red Sand Beach)

Who wants to jump in? This sweet pool is fed by a stream which mixes with the ocean waves and features great cliff jumping. - This is Waioka Pond (aka Venus Pool) along the road to Hana in Maui. - I left the 🚁drone hovering while I tried to float. - #roadtohana #Waioka #venuspool (at Venus Pools)

Bending Earth, part 2 - Less bending this time. Did you notice the perspective shift? I'm curious which one you like better (see previous post). This is Huntington Beach Pier. - #bendingearth #bentearth #inception (at Huntington Beach Pier)

Bending Earth, part 1 - This is my first attempt at this technique, and I have a lot of improvements to make. But I’m excited about experimenting with this. Thanks to @borsch for help and @aydinbuyuktas for inspiration. - Don’t be afraid to put yourself out there and try something new today. - #bendingearth #bentearth #inception #aydinbuyuktas (at Balboa Peninsula, Newport Beach)

The marine layer creeping up on Balboa Island yesterday. (at Balboa Island)

The coast was moody today. It was 80 degrees not far away from the ocean, but the thick marine layer stayed strong right over the water. (at Crescent Bay)

Good times shooting with @MichaelMatti yesterday in Laguna. 👍He had a 12-hour ✈️layover in LA, so I took him to some of my favorite coastal shooting locations like this natural ocean pool. Props to him for braving the cold water for this shot! 👊 #lagunabeach #oceanpool #infinitypool (at Crescent Bay)
