see url Received a couple new Orvis outdoor catalogs in the mail last week, and was happy to see some familiar imagery in use. From Belize to Vermont, Montana to Alaska, this is a fun collection of images. Even though I’m not officially part of Orvis any more, still fun to work with the team on a limited basis. (And please excuse the poor, yellowish iPhone shots of catalog pages. Airplane lighting!)

https://geolatinas.org/9fcoc10ud Back from Cuba, then hit The Fly Fishing Show in New Jersey (great to see some of you there!) and finally now back in Bozeman and trying to catch up on “normal” life. I’ll pen a more thorough blog post later, but you can read a Part 1 and a Part 2 post on Chi Wulff about Cuba, and here are a few images hot off the hard drive.

The network is rapidly expanding; 2016 is off to a fantastic start. It was such a pleasure to run into folks at the Denver show this past weekend — thanks to all of you who came looking for a chat.
get link I’m excited to announce a partnership with Global Rescue, a company who specializes in travel risk and crisis management. I’ve traveled under Global Rescue memberships for several years now, and always rest a little easier knowing if something happened help will be on the way. I’ve had great interactions with the team, and look forward to developing the partnership.
go Off to Cuba on Thursday to shoot for Yellow Dog Flyfishing Adventures; back in Bozeman for a few days at the end of the month before heading to the Somerset, New Jersey. Look forward to saying hi to some East Coast friends!
January Travel – Denver and Somerset Fly Fishing Shows… and Cuba
go site by on January 4, 2016
https://getdarker.com/editorial/articles/zpnn01k7 Modes of travel: transferring supplies into Brevyeni Camp. Ponoi River, Kola Peninsula, Russia.
see Getting ready to head to the Denver Fly Fishing Show (January 8-10) and then to Somerset, NJ, at the end of the month (January 29-31). I’ll be with AFFTA at both shows, and look forward to catching up with old friends, making new, and getting some business done. If you’re at either show, please stop by and say hi!
https://purestpotential.com/awgwlayd3 In the middle — and the trip taking most of my attention right now — I’m heading down to Cuba on assignment for Yellow Dog Flyfishing Adventures. I’ve got a three-day bracket on either end of the trip and the trade shows, so packing right now is imperative. (And somehow I don’t think I’ll be needing flats clothing in Denver.) This is going to be a diverse, multi-location trip, so stay tuned for stories and images coming your way at the end of the month.
Hell of a Year

watch That phrase is overused. Personally, I just rolled my eyes as I sit writing this at the Dallas/Fort Worth airport hoping for a flight out. I’ve been delayed a day, and it harkens back to being stuck last year in the Belize City airport with a group of Dutch Marines. They were a bit better company than what I’ve got today, but it’s always entertaining.
follow site But, surprisingly, I didn’t delete the title of this post after I typed it. I paused, looked at it, listened to the guy behind me talking about the tornadoes that ransacked Dallas a few days ago. The worst in 65 years, they’re saying. I spent the night with family, about 20 miles from the tornadoes, dodging rain and rum, listening to the alert siren going off all too frequently and the steady staccato beat of the rain against the windows. And it fit. Because, you know, it’s been a hell of a year.
enter site The year started off slow; a cold, snowy winter in Vermont, steady work at Orvis and a busy run of articles and stories in magazines. Then came April and nearly three weeks back in Montana, shooting on my own time for a few magazine pieces, then the Orvis Guide Rendezvous in Missoula, and then a fashion / editorial shoot for Orvis. While prepping for the Orvis shoot, I got a call from Costa del Mar’s advertising agency. Did I want to go to a tiny atoll in the South Pacific in four weeks and shoot a campaign?
https://dcinematools.com/82t5fwp 
It wasn’t a hard question to answer. Two weeks back in Vermont and then I was off to the South Pacific with one of the coolest groups of anglers and industry professionals I’ve had a chance to work with. We chased bonefish, bluefin trevally, and a host of other species on the flats and reef edges. Dodged overly-friendly blacktop sharks, played soccer with the locals, ate raw fish in coconut milk at every meal, and learned to throw spears in the local’s sport of https://www.mbtn.net/?p=onoc8t2 patia fa (throwing spears at a coconut suspended in the air on a pole). Met some incredible people along the way, and got my first trevally. Midway through my three-day trip back to the Northeast I sat in the Los Angeles airport, feet so swollen from a series of infected cuts they could barely fit into my flip-flops, and thought how awesome it all was. Sometimes life is unexpectedly grand.
https://www.yolascafe.com/qbl1q02 I’d been back in Vermont less than 24 hours when I got an email asking if I’d like to travel to Alaska’s Bristol Bay Lodge in five weeks. Sometime in between French Polynesia and that trip, I headed to South Carolina to shoot several craftsmen for Orvis and then, before I knew it, I was traveling across the country and up to Alaska, where I was able to both fish and shoot images. The undisputed highlight of that trip was swinging mice for Dolly Varden and watching explosive takes, some from directions I never would have predicted. When you’re relaxed and just “seeing what happens,” that’s typically when it all comes together. Good company, killer fishing, photo-rich scenery, and a mellow black lab in the boat: that single day remains one of the best shooting (and fishing) sessions on the books.
see Things mellowed for a few weeks after Alaska. Back in to the Orvis routine; August was spent managing pictures from the spring, catching up on writing, and getting some serious small-stream brookie fishing in. This work comes in phases; there’s the fun, short creating phase and then the much longer, much less sexy business side of things. Most of my time is spent trying to find a balance between the two.
see September came in with a bang, bringing in unexpected job offer to join the American Fly Fishing Trade Association as their Communications Director, and the day after I was offered a position to manage Yellow Dog Flyfishing Adventure’s social media. After two weeks of serious deliberation, the choice to head back West was made. Back to Bozeman and on to new challenges. It was unexpectedly hard to leave parts of Orvis, and I’m looking forward to a reunion with friends this January at the Somerset fly-fishing show.
go to link Bozeman has been a blur of work and hustle and networking, and that doesn’t seem to be changing. It’s interesting being back in familiar territory, and fun to reconnect with old fishing buddies. We’ve cooked up some local fishing projects for this winter that should be rather interesting… stay tuned. I’m living in a house with three dogs and five people, and somehow it all works.
Tramadol Cheapest Online 2016 is starting off well; I’ll be in Bozeman for a total of eight days in January; on the road the rest of the time for work. Trade shows in Denver and Somerset take up both ends of the month, and a short-notice trip to Cuba and photograph a new location for Yellow Dog takes up the middle part. The spring is already booking up, and I’m eager to see what pops up… it seems often the best adventures come up with short notice and it’s a scramble to make them happen. But somehow it’s always worth it.
Online Rx Tramadol Business-wise, it was a good year. My first large commercial shoot for a client other than Orvis, my first Australian cover, placing as a runner-up in the Moscow Photo Awards… the list goes on and on. But as I sit and write this, the “accomplishments” fade against the memories of good times with good people in strange corners of the world, and a curiosity to what the new year will bring.
https://alldayelectrician.com/1km40ht Thanks to everyone who has provided opportunities and offered support this past year. I’ve encountered some of the most incredible people in the strangest places — from Alaskan fishing guides I’ve kept in touch with, to Anaa islanders who I exchanged Christmas messages with on Facebook (it’s a weird digital world we live in, isn’t it?), to the random people I’ve met in airports along the way. None of this could happen without the roster of awesome clients, anglers, and editors who are patient enough to put up with “the girl with the camera.” Thanks, team, and here’s to a wild one to come.

It’s been a busy couple weeks here in Bozeman, and with nearly a foot of new snow on the ground it’s beginning, as they say, to look a lot like Christmas. The new year is shaping up with some interesting projects, and I’m ever-so-grateful for the awesome clients, editors, and anglers I get to work with on a daily basis. (Thanks, guys!)
In the past week, a familiar image rolled out in a Patagonia email, Costa continued to utilize more images from our trip to Anaa, French Polynesia this summer, and Aurora images just featured a shot from a spring Orvis shoot in their email today. Thanks to everyone who makes this work possible!

I keep a running list of editorial needs, and top of the list was winter shots with anglers here in Montana. Called up some friends and got out on the water yesterday, on what proved to be a rather spectacularly windy day on the lower Madison.
Jake, an old friend from Headhunters days, brought along his dog Marley — a former stray who showed up one day at Headhunters and somehow during the summer the pair adopted each other. They make a fun team, and I’ve photographed the Jake / Marley combo for several magazines and an Orvis campaign. It was good fun to unite; the three of us have put in a lot of miles since the days in Craig, and I’m happy to report Marley is as fish-focused and intense as ever, but she’s looking a bit more plump these days. She’s earned it.
Our other angler was Paul, one of my housemates here in Bozeman. Paul guides on the Henry’s Fork and is wintering in Bozeman, and was testing several new guide fly patterns that looked pretty tempting. It’s fun having another angler in the house, and often kitchen conversation turns into trip planning and fly-tying tactics.
Despite epic-level wind (if we were standing on the bank ice, some gusts would literally blow us a few inches down the ice) and very cold water temps, we had a good time and got the images. Sometimes those miserable days can remind us why we do this… and sometimes just getting outside on the water is a cure for everything else.
