Belize

My first time to Belize (or anywhere in Central America).  I had a great time visiting all six districts. I covered it from North to South. In addition to what you see here I was able to form some great relationships with the beautiful people of Belize.

Here is a preview of one story I shot in Raja Ampat, Indonesia.

Behind the Scenes: Indonesia

Here are a few fun shots of me working during my September trip to Indonesia.

The people were laughing at me. They couldn't understand why I would want the camera on the floor!

Revisiting Indonesia

I had the amazing privilege of revisiting Indonesia. It's been about 5 years since my last visit. It was great to visit a part of Indonesia that I had never been to. I went to West Papua, which is not the easiest place on earth to reach. I ventured flight after flight and the planes were smaller and smaller each time. When I arrived to Jakarta I met up with Pastor Doug Venn who I had worked with in Thailand 5 years ago! 

I finally reached Sorong, where we met our Adventist Aviation pilot Bob Roberts and local missionary Darron Boyd. Turns out it's a small world and we had lots in common (Chattanooga!). They were great company for the next 11 days. So grateful to have this opportunity and I hope to go back soon!

Here are a few of my shots throughout the trip.

Here are some shots from a recent wedding I shot with Stella! The celebrations took place at Becker Farms in Upstate, NY.
