A year ago the @hawknelson boys and I took our trip to Iceland - what an epic adventure it was! Look how excited I was. ;). Also - it was cold. • • I’m headed on another adventure in a few short weeks - to some amazing places - a few of my bucket list spots are getting crossed off! Can’t wait to tell you more about it as it gets closer. • • #artofvisuals #visualsoflife #earthpix #travelawesome #livingonearth #discoverearth #earthfocus #theglobewanderer #wonderful_places #bestvacations #awesome_globepix #awesome_earthpix #discoverglobe #tlpicks #viaparadise #beautifullplaces #nature_good #bestvacationspix #ourplanetdaily #adventurepic #liveoutdoors #exploretocreate #folkscenery #awesome_photographers #earthofficial #wildernessculture #astonishingearth #beautifuldestinations
One of the most important things I want to impart to my kids is a sense of wonder about the world. To see the beauty in every moment, even the ordinary ones. I think it’s a skill that can be learned... and to me - it opens you up to a whole new world of joy. • • Travel is a huge part of that for me - so I’m looking forward to showing Grey and Winnie some amazing places while I’m lucky enough to have them under my roof. :) • • Btw - this isn’t Grey - he ain’t that big yet! This is his cousin Oliver - and he obviously has some idea what adventure is about!• • #lifeofadventure #letsgosomewhere #livefolk #freedomthinkers #exploreeverything #wanderfolk #folktravel #finditliveit #visualwanderlust #neverstopexploring #keepexploring #exploreeverywhere #welivetoexplore #theoutbound #adventurevisuals #keepitwild #wildernessculture #exploretocreate
“Ok dude - we got to stick together now that there’s another girl in the house.”
Meet Winter Joy Steingard - Born at 6:39am - 5 lbs 11 oz // We did not expect we’d be meeting our Winnie today - @jesssteingard had a c section scheduled for Friday, but it seems someone had other plans. ;) • • It seems none of our children are destined to be born without a little drama - and Winnie is no exception. Jess has now survived not one, but two placental abruptions, which are extremely painful and can be very dangerous to both mother and child. Thankfully the staff at Scripps Memorial Encinitas were so incredibly competent and caring, and knew exactly what to do. • • Baby and momma are both resting now. Thank you all for your love and prayers!
Parents x2 !!! // This guy has no idea he’s about to become a big brother! On friday his little sister arrives, and while I know he’ll adore her in time - I do think it might be a fairly large adjustment for him to have to share all the attention with another child. • • All you parents out there - how was your transition from 1 to 2 kids? Any advice you would offer? Thanks! • • • #familyfirst #familyiseverything #familyforever #thepursuitofjoyproject #theartofslowliving #verilymoment #seekthesimplicity #littlestoriesofmylife #livethelittlethings #inspiremyinstagram #thatauthenthicfeeling #nothingisordinary #feelfreefeed #thehappynow #makemoment #momentsofmine #darlingmovement #makeyousmilestyle #choosejoy #seekthepositive #makeitblissful #meetthemoment
Do What You Love // So, if you’ve followed me for any period of time, you may have followed me because I’m a part of the band @hawknelson - a band I’ve been a part of for nearly 15 years! You also may have wondered “why does this guy love cameras so much - ain’t he a singer?” And both of those things are true! • • For the last few years I’ve been diving in to video and photo and I’ve so been enjoying the journey of gaining experience with a camera in my hand. It’s also something that has allowed me to be home a bit more and tour a bit less, and still pay the bills! • • All that being said - I’ve never fully figured out who my instagram “niche” is - like they say you should do in order to be successful on instagram. Haha. I guess I just like dabbling in multiple things and embracing change often. You can tell from my feed I don’t stick to one vibe for long!• • Ultimately I just wanted to thank you guys for being so supportive of me as a singer, filmmaker, husband, father, and human being. It’s not lost on me that I hit 20k recently, and I’m consistently amazed by the kindness and warmth I feel from you guys - even on a platform that is supposedly so shallow. • • So thank you guys so much - for caring about me and my journey enough to follow along, and maybe even throw a comment my way every now and then. I so appreciate you guys!• • #neon #selfie #selfportrait #canon #canonusa #canon1dxmarkii #1dxmarkii #dowhatyoulove #neonsign #portrait
PTL! We are nearly finished a pretty serious remodel of our kitchen / dining room / living room - just days before our little baby girl joins our family. Grey is so pumped about it! • • I already can barely believe our house used to look so old and cabin-like! Swipe to see the changes!
My girl @itshillaryjane has a new tune out today called L.O.V.E. - head over to her insta and check it out! // Had a blast shooting these images for her album. I’ve never seen so much purple in all my life and it was a blast to shoot!
These are the faces the guys make when I bring a camera on stage and sneak photos during the show. 🤫 🤪 // Next month I will have been in this band for 14 years. So wild to think about all the adventures we’ve had. I always say about band life and the challenges that come with it... “Nothing brings people together like mutual suffering.” Haha. • • #canonusa #canon1dxmarkii #1dxmarkii #hawknelson #bandlife #ccm #christianmusic
