Patagonia Estancia- Chile

We drove all day from Argentina into Chile. The border crossing was pretty crazy since they made us unload all bags including all camera equipment to search every bag.

The landscape is amazing and as we entered the Torres Del Paine National Park something amazing happened. We stopped to photograph the mountain range, when a herd of wild horses just walked into our photos with the mountains as a backdrop. It was surreal.

We photographed the Torres National Park landscape and wildlife for 2.5 days.  We saw wild foxes, a flock of condors, and dozens of guanacos.

We stayed 2 nights at a true Patagonia estancia in Chile. The place was amazing and very remote. We photographed gauchos herding sheep on the working ranch and the colors and backdrops were amazing for photographs. I felt like I was on the set of a Vogue magazine shoot with the perfect background of wheat fields and blue skies.

One of the highlights of my trip was riding off into the sunset across the whole ranch with the gaucho on horses. It had been so long since I had rode a horse and it was surreal to ride across the river with the mountains and glaciers as the backdrop to the ranch.
