How (and Why) to do Long Exposure Photography ~ from the CA & OR Coast
I visit the northern California / souther Oregon coast, and I show you how I go with long exposure photography. From gear, to settings, to why.

The way out of a creative rut is new camera gear. Or is it?

Snake River, VI
Not far from Jackson, the Snake River Overlook was immortalized more than 80 years ago by Ansel Adams. The image he made there became one of the most recognized landscapes in American photography.
That view no longer exists as he captured it. Trees now block the river, and the "S" curve Ansel froze in time is no longer visible from the overlook (I imagine a drone could still get a similar shot, but they're not permitted in the park so don't even think about it)
I love visiting locations made iconic by masters of photography because they give us a glimpse into how they saw a landscape. I try to recreate their pieces, and to come up with something new.
But more than anything, these places are a reminder that nothing is permanent. Everything is always changing: some things disappear, others are born.
Rather than mourning what's gone, let's appreciate the present. The world is full of locations waiting to be made iconic by our cameras. We just need to find them.
A snowy evening in Indiana
Indiana, November 2025.
Even though I truly believe any day is a good day for photography, some days are truly special. Yesterday I showed you some photos of that foggy morning in late December. Today, I wanted to share some images from another of those magical moments that happen only every once in a while.
What qualifies as a “magical” moment? For me, it’s when something happens that makes a situation feel like an otherworldly experience. It makes you pay attention, and it makes you feel alive. Yes, a solar eclipse or the northern lights can definitely make you feel that way. They are magical. But I truly savor the moments that transform your everyday environment into something out of a dream. Dense fog and a big snowstorm will do that, no matter where you are, even in a small town in rural Indiana.
By the way, you migth have seen some of these images on the video This was intense, where I documented this day. If you haven't watched it, I think it's a good one.
A foggy morning in Indiana
Indiana, December 2025.
December was a pretty challenging month. I usually love winter, but the extreme cold (high temperatures rarely went above 10°F / –12°C for several weeks), along with the lack of snow, made photography almost impossible for me.
It was about to become one of my worst months of photography in years... until the morning of the 28th. I woke up to some fog, which didn’t seem like it would last. But as the sun rose, the fog became more and more intense. I jumped in the car and went for a drive with no destination in mind. These are just four of the many, many images I made that day.
This morning single-handedly saved the month of December, and it was the best way to finish 2025.
I just uploaded the contact sheets of November and December to my Patreon page. If you want to support my work and join us there, you'll have access to contact sheets going back years. All of my work, the good and the bad.
