Kick Rocks

My passion for rocks honestly keeps growing because of the people. Every collector, serious or not, has a story. A first piece. A moment that hooked them. Hearing those origin stories… that’s the fuel. ⛽️💯🙌

So anyways, walks into my room at the show while I’m in Tucson, and I can immediately tell this guy knows a thing or two about minerals. We start chatting about the usual, he sits down, and we just start chopping it up about rocks. He was my type of human… laid back, witty, and also knows a thing or two about cameras. And when Bruce talks about minerals, you see it. It’s not just about owning them. It’s about the hunt. He even joked about finding things before other collectors and dealers get to them. 😂 “gotta get them before they get them”!

A few days go by and I walked through the Main Show in Tucson and, little to my surprise, his collection was there. Unreal material. I ended up filming and highlighting two of my personal favorites from his case.

Moments like that remind me why I’m so deep in this world. It’s not just rocks… It’s the people! 💯

New one for Natural Creations!

Most people only see the end result… tonight I got a little more insight on the process!
This gorilla was carved by .dreher out of a single solid block of Russian obsidian and it took him 360 hours to finish.
🤯 🙌😱🥹

Stage 1 — the beginning block.
Stage 2 — the midpoint carve.
Stage 3 — the final reveal.
200 mm tall.
One solid piece.
Way to much fu***ng patience... 🙌
And even more skill!
This one hits different… and thank you Patrick for sharing these with all of us! 🙌🙌🙌

One of my favorite edits I’ve put together for .

I just love how this one came together. It’s always fun for me taking two versions of a song, mixing them, then building the edit around the sound. I feel way more connected when the vision starts with the music — and this one went a little deeper since I made my own mini remix for it.

It also makes it easy to love when the rock is absolutely insane. The way it fills the frame, the presence it has… it’s one of those pieces that sticks with you, and that’s why this edit stays near the top for me.

Plenty more coming on this page… BTS, remixes, my own rocks, and a lot more in the works.

Appreciate all of you and all the love. For real.

Andrés from gifted me this absolutely insane agate and I was honestly speechless.
The second it landed in my hands, I knew I had to shoot it… no plan, no pressure, just pure fun.

This is what the rock world is about to me.
Sharing. Creating. Getting hyped over a stone that makes you stop and smile.

Grateful for the people, the energy, and the moments like this that remind me why I love it. 🪨🔥
