Columbia River Gorge, WA

Adventure Photographer between Land and Sea

In this stop of Picture America, we visit the Columbia River Gorge with photographer Corey Arnold, whose journey began with fishing photos and grew into a global exploration of humanity’s bond with nature. Now based in a thriving small town near the gorge, Corey shares the wild and weathered beauty of the place he calls home, where the river, land, and life remain deeply connected.
