You know those moments where the lighting outside and the sky get all dramatic for a minute and you’re like…gosh I wish I had my fancy camera on me!? Well this time I had my fancy camera on me! Yippee.

Holiday fun in the Columbia Gorge & McMinnville. Oregon is beautiful almost any time of year, but in the late fall/beginning of winter it is particularly striking. I also talk about the future of the channel and what’s next in 2020!

Thanks to Epidemic Sound for the background music.
Something about the quality of light in late fall. Ahhh 😌

The touristy areas in and around Portland, Oregon are—for the most part—actually awesome. Multnomah Falls is no exception! It’s not that long of a drive from the city, and the views are breathtaking. I’m glad the upper bridge is open again after the past fires!

The quality of the light earlier this week was mesmerizing. Like the sun made the air literally glow.

Well OK, it’s one of the top “pop up” markets (meaning everyone completely sets up and tears down everything in a day) in the United States which is open year-round. I think that’s pretty awesome. Plus lots of great scenes of traversing downtown Portland in the fall!

Plus shoutout to the Portland Radio Ponies for their awesome appearance on the Portland Streetcar!
Incredible afternoon sky colors viewed from the eastbank. What a day. #portland #oregonexplored
Lil’ bit of a different perspective on an iconic Portland bridge.

Cascade!
I’ve never been so close to a large waterfall from the rock shelter in the back. Oh the drama!
I can’t believe I captured this image. It looks like something straight out of a travel brochure.
Really, the credit goes to Silver Falls State Park though—one of the most beautiful places I’ve visited yet in Oregon. I can’t wait to go back in the spring when the volume of water going over the falls will no doubt be much greater!
It’s always a photographic pleasure when I’m able to capture that magical moment when multiple modes of transportation align within a single frame.
I was pretty impressed by the fact I could have a Zoom conference call on my iPad while hiking near the top of Black Butte in central Oregon. Yay for modern wireless networking! #oregonexplored
