The world feels different when I slow down enough to really look at it. Sometimes it’s a quiet sunrise, sometimes it’s a stretch of rocky coastline, sometimes it’s just the way the light lands on a street I’ve walked a hundred times. Photography helps me hold onto those moments before they slip away.

This gallery is a mix of the places that have stayed with me. Maine’s calm mornings, new cities I wander through, and the small in-between scenes that often matter the most. Each photo is a reminder to pause, breathe, and notice the beauty that’s already here.

Every picture was captured on my iPhone. It’s proof that you don’t need anything fancy to see the world clearly. You just need to pay attention.
