The Story

Back in 2013, there was a photographer who found himself in need of inspiration–something to re-awaken his love of photography. He searched and searched for beautiful scenery within driving distance of Winnipeg, Manitoba, and fell in love with the Southwestern States. One trip led to another and in the winter of 2015, he led his first tour group. Soon, he had his own custom touring van, and met many wonderful people who shared his love for the beautiful places he found.
