The Momento Mori Blog

FIELD NOtes

Welcome to my corner of the internet, where I share what I'm learning behind the lens, at the laptop, and in the field.


Here you'll find a mix of technical insights from recent shoots, marketing tips for entrepreneurs and small businesses, destination guides for photographers and travelers, thoughts on running a creative business, and updates from my personal projects.


I write about the intersection of photography and marketing, my favorite locations in Western North Carolina and beyond, the gear that I rely on in every season, and the landscapes that continue to inspire me. Some posts dive deep into the business side of creative work, while others simply celebrate a particularly beautiful morning on a ridge or the lessons learned from a failed shot.


Whether you're a fellow photographer, a marketing professional, or simply someone who loves wild places, I hope these stories resonate with you.
