I recently went out to SF for a long 10 days, to shoot a couple different projects for The North Face. One of those was full length ‘portraits’ of their snow sport athletes for the upcoming SIA show in Denver. One of my good friends (and TNF athlete) Renan Ozturk shot some behind the scenes [...]

This is the fourth dispatch that we shot and cut from our trip to the Jungle Marathon in Brazil in October — a little ‘get to know’ and behind the scenes with Tracy Garneau. Check it out:

A couple years ago a friend and colleague approached me about helping design a new line of camera bags. His goal was to produce bags that catered towards the needs of the outdoor, action, and youth photographers that had been coming onto the scene and needing more from their bags than what the current crop [...]

Here’s part II of the Jungla Marathon Series. This piece focuses on a racer that can’t make it to the finish and Nikki Kimball who gives some pro tips for keeping your feet happy. Pretty cool stuff. Shot with the 5d and HPX and again a bit of some TNF product focus. Psyched to hear [...]

Mike Wolfe is just another all-around badass from Bozeman Montana. Something about that area breeds people that just crush in the mountains, no matter what the sport. Mike is a lawyer, climber, skier, and most notably a North Face Endurance Athlete; he’s also one of the three runners we had the great opportunity of working [...]

If a picture is worth a thousand words, how many for a video? Here’s the first from Brasil… sitting in the airport waiting for out flight to Sao Paulo.

Here’s another short from Mallorca. All 5d and GH1 footage, Cedar Wright did the edit and he’s using Magic Bullet Looks quite a bit for these shorts.

I’m digging out from shooting in Europe and getting ready to leave for Brazil on Monday. I’m sure many of you have seen this, but its still hilarious… and not that far from the truth.

Well we set out to shoot a little how to video this past weekend in Mallorca. We are afterall hanging out with some of the best climbers in the world, so who better to talk about the equipment that we are using to get the really unique strobed shots we have been taking? This was [...]

Here’s a quick vid from Mallorca. This shoot is another North Face project, focused almost entirely on video. The first part are live ‘dispatches’ from the field (edited by the athletes) that we are posting on facebook and other social media platforms and the second are more polished web videos for their main site (edited [...]

‘I know you think I fell off, but I never really left’
We just got down from a week in the mountains shooting a tag team effort for RedBull Europe and The North Face, with Iker and Eneko Pou.  It was an incredible week long shoot, high in the mountains (no internet=no blog updates) and the [...]

More of the material we shot with Alex Honnold in the end of June (all with the 5d for the tech nerds):

As you might know, I’ve been shooting a ton of video lately for clients. It seems like everyone wants — no needs — more content for their websites. But what if you are company that also has a physical retail presence. How can they incorporate these videos and still images into a better in store [...]

Last week, we did a two day shoot near the Great Salt Lake out in western Utah. In the summer months the level of the lake recedes and leaves behind fresh salt flat, it almost looks like hard packed snow. We were going for a ‘Mad Max’ type of look that the client — Dawn [...]

We moved into a beautiful studio space in downtown SLC about a month ago, and things have been full throttle since… no looking back. The space is 1600 sq. ft., nice big windows, bamboo floor and a killer water feature surrounding an additional 1000 sq. ft. of patio space right outside the door. Its truly [...]

It’s no secret that more clients are demanding video along with their still needs these days. This a is a teaser for an upcoming post where I’m going to talk more specifically about the videos I (and others) are being asked to produce and where I see potential for the future.
The following vid is for [...]

We lost some good friends this week. This is a segment from the Sharp End which really captures just how bad ass Jonny and Micah were on and off the rock. Wade did a lot of work on this segment so it stands a great tribute to these three vibrant souls who were tragically lost in [...]

Finally a video that answers the questions I get the most about the 801. Serious blog backload on my part, more soon.

Check out the trailer for a new climbing flick called ‘Players‘. My man Brian Solano hooked this up. I did the titling work for the trailer in After Effects, and also shot the footage of Emily Harrington featured in the film. tk
