Stewart, 27, of Seattle, is a 2005 graduate of Joseph High School. His family still lives in Wallowa County. In 2013, after he was al- ready well established as a professional photographer, he gave up his apartment in Seattle and hit the road in his 1987 Oldsmobile, stay- ing with family and friends along the way. He ended up with photos from 20 nation- al parks and five countries, with many from Wallowa County. The photos went into the 412-page, 8x10 hardcover book.
