This is without question my favorite photo I’ve ever taken. The other day I shared why Multnomah is so special to me and this photo feels, to me, like the sort of photos that I’d see on IG back when the app was new. The PNW Instagrammers perfected those moody, cloudy, foggy, rainy, grey day shots and made the rest of us dream of running into the wilds of the Pacific Northwest with classic American made boots on our feet, @woolrich socks, @filson1897 shirts, and of course a @pendletonwm blanket spilling out of a @bradleymountain backpack, and a @loyalstricklin leather mug in hand for good measure. I spent years begging Paige to teach me to shoot like those folks shot, to me they were legends and greats, and the coolest of cool back then, now I just call them friends. But to have shot this shot, in a way that felt effortless is crazy to me. In that moment I was so confident with all my settings, my framing, my everything that it just felt so natural. When I look at this image I think of all the hours of forcing my friends to teach me how to adjust my camera, how to properly plan a road trip, and how to really really step into a moment and savor it while still documenting it. I could ramble on and on, but as I was mailing a print of this photo yesterday I just kept looking at the stack of them on my table in awe that I took that. #folk #liveauthentic #livefolk #pnw #multnomah #oregon #columbiariver #instagrammer #vsco #exploremore.

Sick shot of Mt. St. Helens my dad @portwes took in Rainier 42 years ago. 2 years later, everything changed when my brother @alekshrek520 was born in West Sussex, England. Oh, and I guess this mountain blew up too?? #geology #volcano #pnw #rainier #oregon #washington #mtsthelens #mountain #mountains #stratovolcano #rock #rocks #pacificnorthwest #longview #bridge #columbiariver #columbiacounty (at Saint Helens, Oregon) https://www.instagram.com/p/CAVnZfVndfs/?igshid=emgh2iyg1rx2
