There’s something magical about Yosemite National Park that draws me back time and again. This time, it wasn’t just the towering granite cliffs or the whispering pines that made the trip special—it was the company of my cousin and her husband, visiting from New York, who shared this experience with me. Our one-night backpacking adventure to North Dome was the perfect blend of catching up, making new memories, and soaking in the incredible views that only Yosemite can offer.

Emily and I are just back from a much-needed summer vacation to Glacier National Park to recharge and rejuvenate. This trip was not only a personal retreat but also an incredible opportunity to capture the breathtaking beauty of the park through my lens. Join me as I share the highlights of this adventure and the inspiration behind my latest collection of landscape prints.
