I grew up on Choose Your Own Adventure books, and now it's time for you to choose my adventures. I'm taking a month off my dayjob in October 2022 and traveling California as a full-time photographer. This project is a collection of 1/1 NFTs on my own smart contract, made from cartoonified versions of my own photos that represent a photographic adventure I'll experience during that month. You choose which adventures you want me to have by purchasing the associated NFT, and this will also entitle the NFT's current holder to a 1/1 photograph made during that specific adventure.

I'm 40 years old and I've never had more than a week off at a time since I started working at age 15, and this is otherwise never going to be possible on my nonprofit arts job salary. I've always wanted to experience the luxury of time to photograph, rather than squeezing in photo excursions on the weekends or before/after work. I love the idea of this community investing in me as a photographer, and showing support for this dream. I can't wait to (with your help) explore the backroads and byways and intimate little corners of my home state of California, and make some incredible images. The resulting 1/1 photographs will be minted directly to the collector's wallets on a custom contract in November 2022.
