About
me. a quarter century old. an architect by day and photographer by night. people always ask what I design – the brutal honest fact is that, most decent architects can design anything they want to. it’s a question of what you like to design. in architecture, as in photography, I am a generalist. I try to see as much as I can see, I try to enjoy as much as I can enjoy.
I love: my family (which just expanded since I got married to Tina), traveling, and getting together with old friends. photography is beautiful because it allows me to record these moments. architecture is beautiful because it is the grand backdrop to our lives.
I’m sure we’ll get to know each other better.

Like your Blog and Pictures…..amazing
Thanks for a great Blog – we are doing pretty much the same trip (also the same boat – the g6) for our Honeymoon. It looks amazing. If you have any tips or advice for us in this regard it would be great to hear from you.
Thanks again

just remember to bring lots and lots of memory cards (or a laptop to download photos to) because you will want to take lots and lots of photos. definitely invest in a cheap underwater point & shoot because you will sorely regret not doing so when you are there and snorkeling with all the beautiful creatures.
What camera do you use to shoot with? Great shots from Equador! http://www.couchsurfingcook.com.
Oh, duh! Canon 5D Mark II. See it now!
I too enjoyed reading about your honeymoon, and of course, the photos are wonderful. You might enjoy checking out my travels as well.
Congratulations, and Peace.

Hi John, I recently started to do some photography. I have been wanting to do that for quite some years, being a young woman who travels a lot, finding the money for a good camera wasn’t that easy! Unfortunatly so, most of the beautiful destinations I have been to I had to capture with a regular point-and-shoot-camera. Now finally I have my new camera and starting to learn real photography.
I really enjoy your site, I’ve marked it as one of my favorites and will come take a look once in a while.
Keep up the good work.
Greetings from a dutch girl in France (at the moment!)
