However, the idea of hula-hooping across the US may seem a little bit strange. Well one amazing woman didn’t think so and made it looks so natural. Meet Grant Mallory and his fiancée Maria Jacob. They are avid travelers who have pretty much been anywhere and everywhere in the United States and its territories. The two share distinct passions for travel, and while Grant is a landscape photographer, Maria is an avid hula-hooper and a talented one at that. Well, last summer, the couple took up a road trip across the country and combined all their passions. And as you will see in the images below, this is perhaps one of the best thing they have photographed together.
Crater Lake National Park in Oregon
The Crater Lake National Park in Oregon is one of the most scenic places you can visit in the US. The landscape and the surrounding water combine well to offer a blissful experience of nature that you can never get off your mind. Grant and Maria were there and if you ever wanted a great view of this lake, take a look at this photo.
The Bryce Canyon National Park in Utah
The Bryce Canyon National Park in Utah is also another gem in the US, more so for its scenic view and rugged terrain. The site is breathtaking to say the least. Pay attention to how the hula-hoop compliments the entire shot below. It’s simply outstanding.
The Golden Gate Bridge in California
In case you thought Grant and Maria were all about nature and scenic terrains then the next photo is about man-made structures and miracles in modern architecture. It has more of an urban feel and has to be one of the most amazing shots of the iconic Golden Gate Bridge in California. The positioning of the hula-hoop and the photography is simply remarkable. Take a look and decide for yourself.
The Olympic National Park in Washington
The shot taken at the Olympic National Park gets even closer to nature. The park is dense with canopy and trees all over. There is a wide variety of plants and animal species here. It’s one of those places you visit and you don’t want to leave. Here is where the magic of nature comes all together and it couldn’t have been better captured by the hula-hoop shot below. What a scenic view!
Seattle Washington
If you thought the hula-hoop shot of the Golden Gate Bridge was sensational, wait until you see the Seattle shot. It’s a perfect urban shot that captures the city and the hula-hoop seamlessly. Even though this won’t be the first or the last photo you’ll see of Seattle, the hula-hoop adds some unique touch to it. Take a look below and see.
There you go, these are some of the amazing shots captured by Grant and Maria as they crossed the US in their unique road trip with a flair for the hula-hoop.
