A New Chapter: Fantasy & Nature Imagery

Get ready to close a chapter of your life that isn't bringing you happiness. A new chapter awaits. 

What happens when you manipulate and duplicate a photo of a bridge and flip it around? 

This creates an astonishing, unique piece of work that reminds me of one of those designs you see inside a chapter of a fantasy novel.

Green & Purple Hue Effects at the Walkway

A cool, modern design at the South Coast Plaza bridge calls for a fun project involving a mix of duplication, contrast, and hue effects. Alternating the colors with green and purple shades give extra intensity to the exterior architecture of this walkway.

The City Glow-Up: Magnetic Lights at Twilight

Pylon Lookout Part III: Wait a little longer after the first magical start of twilight as everything darkens and becomes more vibrant. 

The last drops of sunlight remain as the city lights turn on.

The Twilight Hour: Subdued Tones & Colors in Sydney

Pylon Lookout Part II: The twilight hour approaches after the sun sets. 

The colors become muted and soft but still bright enough where sights are visible. 

The clouds have higher contrast and are more prominent. 

The skyscrapers stand tall and get ready to illuminate into the night.

Afterglow: Twilight Lights at Sydney Opera House

Pylon Lookout Part I: The color of Sydney Opera House continues to transform throughout the day from white to glowing yellow as the direction of the sun (or lack thereof) changes as the hours fly by. 

One of my favorite captures is during twilight as the mostly cloudy sky absorbs some of the fading sunset colors and the lights begin to flicker into the evening.

Shine Bright: Illuminated Bridge + Walkway in Downtown

Skydance Bridge Part II: Shining bright on a Tuesday twilight night.

This stunning scissor-like sculpture illuminates the walkway on the pedestrian bridge, high above the freeway and away from the sparkling skyscrapers in downtown.

Skydance Bridge at Scissortail Park: Cutting-Edge Designs

Skydance Bridge Part I: Just keep on dancing and glowing. 

This one-of-a-kind art sculpture sits on top of a pedestrian bridge and can be seen on the freeway right below! An abstract creation that resembles a pair of scissors with a cool, cutting-edge look, adding to Oklahoma City's spectacular art scene. 

The vibrant orange color on this sculpture also gives striking resemblances to Tokyo Tower's orange-colored lights at night.

The Bright Lights of Helix Bridge + Marina Bay Sands

By nightfall, the whole vibe in Singapore changes as all the lights come on, creating a spring wonderland. The only thing that remains consistent is the weather. 

Blue, pink, purple, and red lights adorn the famous Helix Bridge and Marina Bay Sands, creating the perfect frame for this photo.

Golden Trees & Bridge Walk in Spokane, Washington

Japanese Garden in Manito Park Part II: Absolutely love the autumn season and rustic yet vibrant colors from all the trees. 

The orange hues on this tree provides the perfect pop against the simple bridge and walkway, creating a satisfying contrast to this picture.

Castle's View: The Red Rooftops of Lisbon

Castle of São Jorge Part I: One thing I've always been fascinated with Lisbon is how their 25 de Abril Bridge resembles San Francisco's Golden Gate Bridge (and the Bay Bridge). 

It's so easy to get the two bridges mixed up if you were to look at it quickly at a distance...until you see this view with all the red rooftops and realize how different the two cities actually are.

The Tower Bridge's Glow at Sunset

From daylight to sunset to twilight, it's mesmerizing watching the colors of the Tower Bridge change based on where the sun is at. From cloudless skies to cloud-covered skies during a 7 hour period...it was quite the wild ride.

Breathtaking Orange Skies: Clouds from Above

Reunion Tower Part II: High humidity and a diverse variety of clouds in the sky create the most surreal sunsets. The insanely high wind gusts couldn't stop us from staying outside until the very last second of light.

Magical Descent: Turquoise and Purple Hues on the Bridge

This small bridge really added to the tranquil atmosphere of the Japanese garden. I loved how the late afternoon sun started casting all of these shadows across the walkway and I knew I had to capture this view. I decided to make it even more dramatic and added in some contrasting hues effect. This created a scene that was even more magical and enchanting. The pastel aqua, turquoise and purple colors started coming to life.

Blue Skies Ahead: Vibrant Colors of Golden Gate Bridge


One of those truly rare crystal clear blue sky days in San Francisco, where everything shined so brightly, from the glistening dark blue water to the sparkling sun. No speck of fog or low clouds in sight.

Golden Pastels: Tree's Shadow Effects on the Walkway


Dreamy vibes of the bridge walkway at a neighborhood park, with clear, intricate tree shadows on the right.

I was amazed by how cool the tree shadows looked in this picture and decided to include golden pastel colors across this photo to change up the atmosphere of this. 

I added soft yellow hues to the trees, hints of peach and salmon paint splotches on the pavement, and aqua and light purple shades on the tree shadows to enhance the colors even more.

Dazzling Night Colors and Reflections at Cuyahoga River


Took one step outside and was mesmerized by the colorful dancing light reflections at night. Such clear orange and green-blue hues being reflected in the waters!

Awakened by the Sun: Pastel Winter Park Imagery


Winter doesn't need to be so dreary. On a rather bleak, grey day in Seattle, I stumbled upon this bridge that gave off so much serenity on a Thursday afternoon.

I liked the simplicity of this view but wanted to make it brighter and more hopeful. I decided to filter it with pastel vibes all over, lowering the saturation, drastically altering the hues, adding sun flare effects and blurring it to offer up an ethereal, dream-like feel.

Coit Tower's Cityscape Views of San Francisco Bay


This makes you do a double take. Just one look at this and it feels like you're looking at Lisbon (or San Francisco). From far away or just from a quick glance, the Golden Gate Bridge looks remarkably similar to the 25 de Abril Bridge in Lisbon and vice versa.

This particular view from Coit Tower of the city and the bridge can definitely be found in Lisbon for the most part (just tweak those peach-colored buildings and add in colorful red-tiled buildings).

Manhattan Bridge Views from DUMBO, Brooklyn


Stumbled upon this block with a view of the Manhattan bridge, not realizing this is one of the most famous views from Brooklyn of the bridge...until we see a swarm of other tourists capturing this glorious scenery.
