Squaw Peak with Patick Schooler

I got the opportunity yesterday to take some photographs of my good friend Patrick Schooler, this kid is a monster! Not only does he rip it on his mountain bike, but he's also a talented freestyle motor cycle rider.

Steep!

Its hard for an image to give what he is doing justice...

About half way through our shoot the weather got

nasty, easily the hardest rain I have ever been in.

Fall Photos with Kj

Me and my friend Kjirsten went up the canyon today to try and get some shots of the fall colors, it was really fun and we got some good shots! :)

IT HAS BEEN FOREVER

So, I haven't done this whole blog thing for a long time. I was talking to my buddy Ben at work and he was wanting to see some of my photos. When I directed him to my blog he said "yeah hasn't been udpated since the last time i looked at it! haha" So I am updating it with some of my newer work!

Just me! (self portrait)

So while i was shooting this shot I was shooting on a timer and the timer was set for I think 10 seconds. I would hit the button and then run and sit down in the frame. Anyway, when I would run I would jump back wards and kind of slide into place. Well long story short this shot hurt my back!! haha I jumped landed on the ground and did something to my lower back because now it kills!!! haha

Me again (self portrait)

My little bro

Becoming quite the little ripper on that skate board of his!

One of the EDP DJ's--EDP Block Party

WHEELIE Z RAIL SESION!

This sunday I got the opportunity to photograph Peter Fitts (wheelie team rider) and friends! When Peter called me asking me to come and take photos of him doing a hand rail that he had set up the night before I had no idea the difficultly of the rail he was about to attempt!

When we got the the location and I saw the rail I just kept thinking "peter has lost his mind" haha. But seriously this rail was gnarly, about half way through the rail it had a TURN! The photo above

doesn't do the rail justice. But you get the idea this rail is not for the faint of heart.

The photo to the on the side shows my set up for the photos I shot. 2 sb900s on stands one that will shoot from behind and another filling from the front. Pretty simple set up but it got the job

done.

So we got all set up, run in all salted up for extra speed photographer and videographer (Dan Clayton) all ready to go. And the skiers started to test speed. One speed test for peter was enough. Then Pete went for it!!

"GREASED IT" First try! Peter is so sick! and the shot turned out pretty good too!

Peter and friends did the rail a few more times and I got a bunch of sweet shots. The shot above was pretty scary for me because they kept coming off the rail and landing right where I was standing. So I would take the shot then literally run for my life to avoid getting landed on. But it was worth it cause I loved the way the shots turned out.

Here are a few more shots of the other riders and some other angles I got. Thanks for reading! :)

Michael Lipsey!

P-fitty!
