Camping

Getting the campfire going at Basecamp— Cañon Tajo, Baja California, Mexico

May 15, 2020 by marty Leave a Comment

Back in the 80s, we spent so much time at this camp that our rock furniture was named—
The bright red Ghowlue Mug is sitting on top of “table rock,” the flat rock on the left was the best recliner around the warmth of the fire. There was also an iconic chunk of granite called “penalty rock” which was tripped over by many a late-night partier as we enjoyed cold coronas around the fire!
Great Memories of wonderful trips with many Adventure 16 friends, some incredible catalog shoots, camp cooking feasts, and rock climbing adventures in the Sierra Juarez Mountains.
This camp was a familiar weekend home for myself and my great friend Eric Barrett, who is shown here, stoking the flames.
Were you lucky enough to make a trip to this incredible place?

Gourmet Mexican Food Spread- Quesadillas and Chipotle Pork in the Dutch Oven

July 27, 2015 by marty Leave a Comment

A blast from the past…
Cover Image photographed on location for GSI Outdoors.
What an Outdoor Feast… Seafood Soup, Chipotle Pork, Quesadillas, Beans and Rice.
Can you find the hidden bottle of Tequila?

Back then I was a film guy…
Velvia 50 & a couple Nikon F3’s were my constant companions…
Over the years I’ve specialized as a product photographer in the Outdoor Industry…
shooting Camping & Backpacking products on location.
There were trips with duffel bags loaded down with 300+ new products
to be shot in a week with the scenic backdrops in which we camped.

Playa Coyote Sunrise, Baja California Sur, Mexico

April 14, 2014 by marty Leave a Comment

The palms of Playa Coyote are among Baja California’s most recognizable landmarks.
Sunrise on Bahía Concepción, camping under the Palms…
turquoise waters, white sand beaches & peaceful inlets dotted with islands.
When I was young, I remember snorkeling along the rocky shoreline with my Father looking for lobster.
Located along Highway 1 south of Mulege, you can still rent a palapa on this beautiful beach.
The perfect basecamp for sea kayaking, hiking & exploring the region.

A couple of cold Coronas by the Campfire

April 7, 2014 by marty Leave a Comment

I remember the day well, it changed the direction of my Product Photography.

Climbing in Baja California’s Sierra Juarez Mountains.

Returning to camp, we lit a fire for warmth & pulled a couple of cold Coronas out of the Ice Chest.

I sliced up a lime and went to look for the opener.

Any guesses as to what’s in the orange mug?
