All new episode of the Visual Revolutionary is out now. We talked about my early years as a Canadian growing up in Saudi Arabia, to my days as a river guide in Alaska, to the tragic story of losing my boyfriend in a paragliding accident and being reminded of my own impermanence, to sailing around the world twice, to hopping trains in the Sahara Desert. During our conversation I take a deep dive into what makes a more compelling photo, what it was like to circumnavigate the globe on a sailboat, how I fell in love with photography, the problems she sees with social media creating too much of the same, and the advice I give to others out there wanting live out their own creative adventures.

Last week I sat down with Ric Stovall from the Visual Revolutionary Podcast. We chatted about a variety of topics… from my early years as a Canadian growing up in Saudi Arabia, being a raft guide in Alaska, the tragic story of losing my boyfriend in a paragliding accident and being reminded of my own impermanence, to sailing around the world twice, hopping trains in the Sahara Desert, what it was like to circumnavigate the globe on a sailboat, how I fell in love with photography and how my career began to take off, the problems I see with social media creating too much of the same, and advice I give to others out there wanting live out their own creative adventures. It’s a lot! If you are still interested, you can listen to the podcast here or search for “Visual Revolutionary” in any podcast app.
