Savi's Workshop Lightsaber at Walt Disney World

Building a lightsaber at Savi's Workshop in Star Wars: Galaxy's Edge at Walt Disney World is perhaps one of the most ridiculous and exclusive upcharges within Disney's Hollywood Studios. 

Don't get me wrong, building a custom lightsaber is a lot of fun and a really unique park souvenir, but the experience required a weeks in advance reservation and roughly $300 CAD to do. For the sake of doing Galaxy's Edge to the fullest extent it was one of the top things I told myself I had to do while visiting Walt Disney World during the 50th celebrations. I'll be the first to admit that not everyone will see the value, but honestly, I still get a kick out of this thing.

Southwest USA Travel Shoot 2022

Two weeks, 6 states, 7 national parks / preserves, 12.6K images, nearly 7500 kms driven, and my first return to travel shooting on the road in the U.S. since March 2020. 

From the Grand Canyon to the California coast, from hiking in Arches to camping in Joshua Tree, from searching out desert art installations to classing it up at the Beverly Hills Hotel ... can I just say how much I've missed this? 

My sincerest thanks to everyone who made this series of travel shoots an epic success. Now, where to next? I'm thinking I could use some recommendations as I'll be camped out in the edit suite for the next few months to continue work on the documentary ... 

Are you planning any travel in 2022?

Open Roads & Wide Open Spaces

It's been a minute since my last road trip travel series through the good ole U.S. of A, but after 17 hours of driving south I'm happy to share that I'm back at it again. I hope you'll join me over the next few weeks as I share some highlights from the road and a few behind the scenes teasers of some of the new travel content I have in the works for 2022. 

This series of shoots is all about making up for lost time. Please be sure to engage with the new posts to continue to see them in your feed if you're interested.
