Behind the Scene is my monthly update where I discuss in more detail different aspects of my photography. This month, we look back to trip to Great Smoky Mountains National Park in April of 2022. I’m excited to share more about the image Illumination and how this trip was a turning point on my photographic journey.

This time on Behind the Scene, I explore the idea of photographing local icons and how I made one of my favorite images from last year from the stunning Hocking Hills region of Ohio.
