Finding beauty in the ordinary.

I’m a Guam-based editorial photographer. I believe the most powerful stories are often the quietest. After more than 30 years behind the camera, I’ve learned that beauty doesn’t always require grand landscapes or epic backdrops—it’s in the shadows, the small details, and the fleeting in-between moments.

I created TheTravelingPhotog.com to document those moments. Through cinematic photos, personal vlogs, and written reflections, I aim to share my experiences on the road—from the glow of a café window in Cebu to a stormy coastline in San Francisco, or the cobbled streets of Lisbon. Sometimes it’s a portrait. Sometimes it’s a plate of food. Sometimes it’s just light falling a certain way. My goal is to help others notice the beauty that’s already there, often hidden in plain sight.

Whether I’m working with my Leica Q2 Monochrom, a Fujifilm, or my newly added Nikon Zf—or simply with my eyes—this blog is my creative journal: a space for honest storytelling and intentional seeing.

I don’t follow a strict posting schedule, but you can usually expect something new each week, most likely on Tuesdays.
