adam | 12 recap

adam | 12 project – Images by Jay Goodrich
We traveled 400 miles, rode two ferries, I took over 400 photographs, we hiked 5 miles, traveled for 17 hours, the weather was perfect, and this whole day included the whole family – wife, two kids, and yes, even the dog. I definitely have the most patient family in the world. It was Jade and Micah’s first time at the Pacific Ocean, and Heather’s first time seeing the beaches of Olympic National Park. Facebook and Flickr stalled a bunch of times during my uploads, and we lost our mobile signal for a few hours while we explored the Olympics, but overall it was a success. I can now tell you that walking to shoot a sunset with only a phone in your pocket is an enlightening experience. I felt a little lost without the 35 pound pack on my back, so lost in fact, that I carried my 40 pound daughter on my shoulders for a good part of the hike. I think it was a great learning experience, a great way to explore an area, and a great way to explore different styles of image making. So will there be another adam | 12? I already set the countdown timer on the blog, you bet. Although next year I might travel somewhere and with 3 other photographers. Any takers? In addition, since the uploading was in and out, here is a gallery of my favorites. Enjoy.
