It started with a camera and a question: How do I share this with others?
Rocky Mountain Photo Adventures was born from that simple impulse—my photographer's instinct to not just witness beauty, but to help others see it, capture it, and preserve it.
But something shifted along the way. The camera became a vehicle. The photograph became a departure time. Rocky Mountain Photo Adventures evolved into Moraine Lake Sunrise Shuttle & Tours—because the most powerful image isn't always the one captured. Sometimes it's the one burned into memory at 5:47 AM, standing at the water's edge, watching impossible colours of sunrise and turquoise water emerge from darkness.
"I stopped being a photographer who happened to lead people to beautiful places. I became a guide who happened to understand light."
And now, another evolution. Another question.
I've photographed this lake hundreds of times. The colour has always stopped me. But I'd never thought about these incredible colours disappearing—until recently. Scientists have been researching glacier retreat for over twenty years, and I learned that the colours are fading with them.
"The turquoise we witness today may only exist in our grandchildren's storybooks."
That's when the question formed: What if this colour could live forever?
As a photographer who has spent years documenting these colours, I realized I could do something about it.
Wild Colour is my response: preserve these colours the way I preserve a moment in a photograph. Precisely. Permanently. An archive of wonder built while the wonder still exists.
Wild Colour isn't about documenting loss. It's about preserving what's still here—so that future generations inherit not just data, but awe. It's a photographer's response to a scientist's warning.
