Seattle is a beautiful place to visit and an even better place to have a wedding as we recently found out. Our good friends Jake and Lena invited us to their wedding at the Hollywood Schoolhouse in the middle of the winery area which was a treat for us.

One weekend each fall, the skies above San Diego come roaring to life with the sounds some of the most amazing aircraft you may ever see. Over 500,000 people pass through the gates of Marine Corps Air Station Miramar to experience one of the greatest air shows in the world. The show features some incredible static exhibits in addition to the flying action.

The In-N-Out location near LAX is a very popular spot for people to watch the planes arrive and depart LAX, especially from the north complex. That is because the In-N-Out and the park across the street is almost directly under the arrivals runway's, 24R, final approach. The planes come thundering overhead, so close that it feels like you could jump up and touch them.

People in general aviation are always looking for reasons to fly and most of those reasons come down to one thing - food. It is where the term "$100 hamburger" comes from and Palm Springs was our next stop for one. Although, we had BBQ instead.

The Fox Bruin Theater in Westwood Village is a historical movie theater in Los Angeles built in 1937. It is also one of the settings in the Quentin Tarantino film, Once Upon a Time in Hollywood. That is why it was the perfect place to photograph an Instagram post for Sony Pictures to promote the film's release.

Leo Carrillo is one of my favorite beaches in the Los Angeles area for photography. There is so much diversity within walking distance that you can create whatever look you desire. There is plenty of white and beach, rocky cliffs, tall grass that sways in the wind, a good surf break and even a sea arch and walk-through cave.

One of the most photographed spots in Los Angeles is the Santa Monica pier and for good reason. It is a very iconic landmark in Los Angeles and it helps that the pier and its surroundings are so photogenic. This means that it in increasingly more difficult to capture a unique photo of the pier.

Coming face to face with a giant black sea bass while scuba diving can be a bit of an adrenaline rush. These sea creatures can be in excess of 560 pounds and more than seven feet long. Despite their size, it is somewhat rare to spot them because there is only estimated to be around 500 with only 40-50 returning to Catalina to spawn. Amanda and I had the fortunate experience to encounter seven of them during our weekend trip to Catalina.

I had the opportunity with Marco recently to fly up to Mojave Spaceport for a private tour of Virgin Galactic's facility, White Knight 2 and Spaceship 2. It was an incredible experience! Unfortunately, we were not able to take photos inside the facility but I did capture some GoPro Fusion 360 photos along the way and from outside the hangar.

Dubrovnik was our favorite stop in Croatia and definitely one of the top three on our most recent European trip. However, Dubrovnik was a place that when planning our trip through Croatia, we didn't plan to spend much time in. We allowed for just three night and three full days - we wish we could have stayed longer. It really captured our hearts. We will be back. Follow along to find out some of our favorites from our time in Dubrovnik.

The Bay of Kotor in Montenegro is a perfect day trip from Dubrovnik. From the historic city of Kotor to the sweeping mountaintop vistas, there is so much to see in this part of the country. Whether it's just one day or you time for a longer overnight stop, make sure to add Montenegro to your list when visiting Dubrovnik.

Bosnia & Herzegovina is a country that I knew very little about before recently visiting. I am embarrassed to admit that everything I knew about the country stemmed from the Bosnian war in the early 90s. I had imagined it being a war-torn place that I would never visit - another world away. In fact, I probably couldn't have pointed to it out on a map.

Split, Croatia is the perfect place to spend some time soaking up the sun on a beach. From the mainland to the many islands that surround Split, you can't go wrong with a few beach days in Croatia.

Plitvice Lakes is a place that you can see more waterfalls in a day than you have seen collectively in all of your life! When planning our trip to Croatia, I knew that this place MUST make the list. It can be done as a day trip out of Zadar or Zagreb but I will give you a tip to maximize your time and reduce the amount of people you have to share the park with down below.
