I’ve just watched the second episode of AdoramaTV's Picture America series, which follows commercial fisherman and photographer, Corey Arnold (@arni_coraldo), as he recounts his life at sea from his home within the Columbia River Gorge in Washington State. This episode’s outdoorsy vibe is completely different from last week’s equally exciting premiere, with talented visual storyteller Tony Shepard.
Corey credits his father for getting him into both photography and fishing, even buying him a Pentax K1000 for his 10th birthday. He first worked the sea as a commercial fisherman in Alaska, a summer job used to supplement his time at art school. By 2003, he was working on a boat in the Bering Sea and weathering some of the “roughest waters in the world.” A few years later, Corey had his own boat and fishing business, but he never stopped taking photos.
