Last Summer I filmed a short dance video for my friend Larkin Poynton. It has taken me a while but I finally got to finishing it for him. I know this post doesn't have any photos but I like to do a healthy mix of photos and videos to keep my skills sharp. Here is one of many videos to come in the next couple weeks.

Gnu Flat Light Shoot at Breckenridge
First post of April!
So this weekend I went up to Breckenridge Resort to take some photos. My buddy Alex Bayer rides for Gnu Snowboards and needed a couple shots of him on his 2012 Danny Kass Pro Model board. The forecast called for a mostly sunny Friday and Saturday but you know Colorado weather. It was over cast and lightly snowing all day with very warm temperatures. Here are some of the shots that I came up with for the day. They might be posted on the Gnu blog so ill keep you updated on that. This was my first chance to use my new Canon 7D and I couldn't be more in love. Last weekend I did a lot of videoing so I'll post some edits up here soon!

Backcountry and Telemark Skier Mags Testing at Powder Mountain, UT
Hey everybody,
So this past week I was called out to Eden, UT (just north of Salt Lake) to do some ski testing for Backcountry and Telemark Skier Magazines. With an all expenses paid trip and a whole lodge rented out to all of the testers, it was a fantastic week of skiing. For me personally it was good to get back to skiing powder how I always have. My skiing has been limited because of my leg but its was feeling fantastic last week. I wanted to share some B-Roll shots again as I did take a couple of shots this week I plan on submitting to some magazines. The shots of the skis with model were for a preview that was featured on the Telemark Skier Mag facebook and the rest of the shots were to be featured on an update on their website. The ones that were chosen can be seen on the Telemark Skier Mag website and the rest are posted below. I am planning on purchasing a new camera this week so stay tuned for some new photos and videos.

Crested Butte Telemark Freeskiing Championships Event Coverage for Telemark Skier Mag
Heyyyyyy
This weekend I was called down to Crested Butte, CO to cover the Telemark Freeskiing Championships. I usually compete in this competition but because of a recently broken leg, I am now shooting photos and videos of it. Because of personal stupidity, I did not have a tri-pod so I had to improvise to get decent footage. I wanted to share the media assembled from the weekend with you guys. I took all the photos, video, and also made the edits below. The photos can be seen on Telemark Skier Mag's Facebook which you should all "like" the page. Below are the embedded videos of the Day 1 and Day 2 Highlights. Stay tuned to the Telemark Skier Magazine website for full results and event coverage. Cheers!

Telemark Skier Magazine Update
Hey people,
Just a quick update here. As you have seen before I have been shooting a bit with Telemark Skier Magazine as I now work for them as a photographer, videographer, and soon to be athlete next year once my leg fully recovers. This weekend we were up shooting in Breckenridge with Alex Paul and wanted to share some shots I got. As I have mentioned before, I will only be putting B-Roll shots up on my blog and sending them to be used for web updates as I plan to make a submission to the magazine later in the year and don't want to release the images if they are to be published. You can view the web update at the Telemark Skier Mag website. I am heading down to Crested Butte this next weekend to cover a competition there so more photos are on the way.
