Pokemon Go
I think what is great about this game is how it's made a change to the streets in the towns that I photograph. To be honest, typically around me the streets are mostly empty and a conversation with someone is rare at best. With this game it has brought out crowds, I've talked with a dozen random people this week alone. In all my time walking around, I've never felt so much positivity, happiness, and laughter from strangers. To me, that's the best part of this game.

Peak Design
Peak Design is a company I feel like I am a part of which is kind of weird because I am not. Maybe it's being a continuous Kickstarter backer, keeping up with LIVE videos, and just loving the final result of the process. I have the Peak Design Capture Pro connected to me every single day, the only other thing that has that exclusiveness is my wallet. The Everyday Messenger bag is by far the best looking messenger bag you'll find and was the stake in the world of not just camera bags, but how a bag should be made, with meticulous detail and cutting edge design.
So here we are, a new Kickstarter campaign. This isn't just a simple product, this is yet another recreation of a product. Scratch that. Recreation of MULTIPLE PRODUCTS.
The Everyday Backpack (2 sizes)
I backed The Everyday Backpack (30L) immediately after I received the email from Peak Design, it was funny because I was surprised to see 4 new products announced but at the same time I wasn't, this company really listens and is engaged with the community that they have created.
I highly recommend checking out these bags and back this project with a bag you are into! If not share this Kickstarter link with your friends ❤️
I hope to be able to check out the Peak Design HQ someday to meet the talented crew and check out the workspace, and maybe play some ping pong.
In air
I love photographing in the air, luckily I have had a few chances so far this week to do so. After many flights I have become much more efficient with set up and getting the shot which has been allowing me to get more done.
Have you seen the trailer for Sully? Looks like it's going to be really good
