The Modern Explorer

Episode 5 - @ethanabitz

Beyond excited to be sharing this episode with a good friend and incredibly talented photographer, Ethan Abitz. We sat down fireside, to discuss the incredible journey Ethan has been on from dropping out of college to pursue his dream, to driving across the country, and recently flying across the world. This chat is nothing but inspirational for anyone wanting to live a life on their terms. Ethan has been a constant inspiration for me in living a life that is true to me and it was an absolute pleasure hearing about all his travels and the hard work that he has put into living a life authentic to him. Be sure to check out his cabin work, lifestyle shots, and beautiful film collection across social media @ethanabitz

Episode 4 - @arewejustmachines

This episode is a good one, my friends. Brought on Kevin Frith, who is one of the most intentional photographers I've ever met. It was a blast hearing about his processes, his transition to lifestyle and landscape photography, some wild stories from past trips, and his ideas for some upcoming trips (including a motorbike trip from Colorado to California). This is one you don't want to miss. And if you want to enhance the experience, I recommend pulling up his feed on Instagram @arewejustmachines to see some of the photos he talks about. 

Episode 3 - @photogalena_

I am excited to share this episode with my first female guest and a good friend Galena Staroselsky. In this episode, we dive into the importance of taking solo trips for personal and creative growth, some fun trips she has planned for the near future, and mindsets to grow your network and get out of your comfort zone. Pardon the noisy grasshoppers trying to get a word in. Please go check out Galena's amazing gallery on Instagram @photogalena_ !

Episode 2 - @justinroams

Welcome the new roommate, Justin, to the pod. Another one of the first good friends I made in Colorado, Justin, and I have been sending it around Colorado and the surrounding area for years, but we discussed more of the journeys I had not been on in this conversation. He shares how photography found its way into his life, some trips that have shaped him, and future plans to finally step out of North America and get a taste of a new continent. Justin also shares some mindsets that are good for anyone to follow in their personal development. 

Episode 1 - A campfire chat with @connography_

Happy to have had one of the first good friends I made in Colorado as my first guest on this show. Connor and I sat down, fireside, to talk about how he got involved with photography, some impactful trips, and mindsets he's implementing to continue to grow as a creative and hone his craft. He is the king of Crested Butte when it comes to all seasons, having spent 6+ years finding unique compositions in all different conditions. His work can be found across socials @connography_
