The Explorographer

Who Is A.D.?

The way I look at it, the landscape photographer has 730 opportunities (give or take a leap year) every 365 days to capture a stunning image.  So, whenever I am asked if I want to go shoot something, the answer is, “yes”.   I love to explore and I love photography.  Meeting new people, experiencing new culture and trying to better understand our world.  Then when I come home, I want to share all of that with my friends and family.

For my “day job” I am the sole contributor here at TheExplorographer.com where all the stories and photos are my own unless otherwise noted. I am also the creator and editor in chief at a new website called Travel ObscuraA website where a myriad of amazing photographers and travelers have gotten together to collaborate on an amazing Travel Photographers resource magazine.  If you are a photographer and want to discover some cool places to shoot, techniques and equipment for doing so, I suggest you click the link and check it out.

To supplement my travels and the work I share here, I sell signed, numbered, and certificated limited editions of my work on metal.  These are different from the prints you can by here on the website from my portfolio which are not signed or limited.  If you would like something for your wall let me know by using my contact form below and I will send you a list from my private stock.  I also sell my prints in bulk for businesses, hotels, office buildings, you name it!  Or you can license my works for your business, blog, etc.
