Magdalena Bay. Baja, Mexico
Sometimes the flawed image is my favorite. The top image is of Hagen letting one go. Magdalena Bay. Baja, Mexico. Shot for Los Locos this past December. I can never get enough of the energy I find from the crew at Los Locos and Mag Bay and the new people I’m lucky to meet and the shared experience and even at times awe. It feels worlds away.

Tres Valles Lodge, Argentina
I am recently back from hosting a fly fishing group to Tres Valles Lodge in Argentine Patagonia with Patagonia River Guides. It never disappoints. The food, staff, guides, and not to mention the lodge itself, are all truly fantastic. From tiny creeks to freestone rivers to lakes with really large browns, rainbows, and even brookies, Tres Valles has a large variety of water that is off the beaten path. I will be hosting here again Jan 16 — 23 AND Feb 27— March 6 of 2027. Below are some images from the week…

Tradición. San Antonio de Areco, Argentina
I am working on a personal project called, Any Ordinary Areco. Each November the small colonial town of San Antonio de Areco, Argentina hosts a large gaucho festival, Tradición. Argentines from every province in the country drive and sometimes ride their horses to Parque Criollo on the outskirts of Areco where they set up spartan camps in a giant grassy / dirt parking area surrounding the fenced arena. Some sleep in small tents or in horse trailers or on the ground next to smoldering fires used to cook asados.
The images below are from my recent trip to Areco during Tradición and are all available as fine art prints.

Spring on Silver Creek
Spring is here and so are the thunderstorms that light up our night skies and owlets are hidden high in their nests still and infantile grasses are poking through the prairie soil and new tender aspen leaves shake in the wind and spring mayflies emerge periodically leaving empty husks to drift.
I cannot wait to photograph a massive thunderstorm with the Nikon Z9 I’m using given the game changing “Pre Release” function. Essentially, I can capture images up to a full second into the past… I used the pre release function yesterday to capture the image below.

Silver Creek Photography Workshop
Silver Creek Photography Workshop
Dates: September 12 - 16, 2024
Hosted By: Arian Stevens and Nick Price
Workshop Price: $3,600
Workshop Details:
Nick Price will be co-teaching this photography workshop with Bend, OR photographer Arian Stevens. The class will take place on Silver Creek, near Picabo, Idaho where you will have 3 full days to cover a variety of aspects from natural light portraiture, macro, landscape, travel, to on location with a fly fishing guide and other models. Fly fishing photography is the emphasis. We will utilize our two streamside cabins—located on Silver Creek—for lectures, one on one critiques, a jumping off point and not to mention the delicious meals we will be having each evening at this incredible location.
What’s Covered:
Beginning with how to conceptualize shots you want to get, Arian and Nick will walk everyone through fundamentals — iso, exposure compensation, depth of field, aperture, shutter speed, etc. There will be lecture time and time spent in the field with models, hatches, and early fall scenery on one of the most beautiful spring creeks in the West. With fundamentals as a baseline, we’ll work on visualizing the shots you want to take before you press the shutter release.
“We learn by our failures and the only way to fail is to try.” —Peter Souza
Location:
Located in south central Idaho, Silver Creek is a low gradient spring creek rich in insect life known as the graduate school of fly fishing. It’s in a high desert prairie setting with Sun Valley and a more alpine topography 45 minutes to the north. This is a perfect location to work on fly fishing photography along with landscapes, portraits, macro imagery, and more.
What’s Needed:
A willingness to learn!
“Curiousity will get you through hard times when nothing else will.” —Jim Harrison
Everyone who attends should have a digital camera that allows for manual control. Do not feel as though you need to own or bring a myriad of lenses. In fact this might be a great opportunity to learn about other focal lengths and max apertures to decide whether or not you need that new lens. Nick spent 3 years of shooting with only a 35 mm ƒ2 lens. Ideally everyone will have a laptop with photo editing software enabling downloading imagery taken during the workshop. While this is not an Adobe Lightroom or Photoshop workshop, Nick and Arian will discuss their respective workflows using these two platforms.
What’s Included:
4 nights of lodging and all meals are included. Check-in is late afternoon / early evening on Sept 12. Check-out is late morning of Sept 16. The two cabins we will be using are located on Silver Creek. Max size for this class is 7 and the minimum number of participants needed is 4.

La Mosquitia, Honduras Tarpon
Just returned home from an incredible trip to Gracias a Dios and the Honduran Mosquito Coast. This was an exploratory trip fishing lagoons and heading up rivers in search of snook and tarpon… Below, Miskito people harvest rice in a small clearing in the jungle along a river. Gracias a Dios is a region our US State Department has classified as a Level 4: Do Not Travel
In short this was an incredible experience that will be an editorial feature in the coming months…
