Ski the East Interview

Huge thanks to Ski the East and Pippin Lee for making this interview happen. Just speaking with Pippin and then seeing this interview up online has made me even more excited for the upcoming season. Reflecting on what I've done so far really just confirmed how little that is, and how much more I have ahead of me. I wouldn't want to be anywhere else. Thanks to everyone that's helped me along the way.

Here's the Interview:

Got it!

This is the shot that I was attempting to get when my camera was stolen just three weeks ago. I dragged Zack back into Hartford to get this rail again. He got a little beat up, but we left a lot
happier than last time.

I haven't shot skating very much but am very interested in getting more into it. It's always fun to shoot something different and
explore a new industry.

Thanks again to Zack Matthews for skating and Erik Anderson
for helping us out.

Stang!

After having my camera gear stolen a few weeks ago, I have finally replaced it all. I actually upgraded to the D700 and am extraordinarily excited about this camera. Here's one of the first shots that I've captured with it. I shot out of the trunk of my Pathfinder while my friend Kyle cruised his Mustang around some windy New England roads.

Poor Boyz Triple Threat World Premiere!

I had a great Summer and can’t believe it’s already September. This September will be my first real experience of “premiere season.” This is the time of year that all the ski films get released and there are events all over the world to screen the movies. In 48 hours I’ll be traveling to Seattle for the Poor Boyz Productions World Premiere of their film “Everyday is a Saturday” and the Nimbus film “Contrast.” There will be a photo art gallery before, then two movie screenings, and a big party after. Should be a lot of fun. Poor Boyz has worked really hard to promote this not only to their fans but to their own athletes, there will be a record number of pros attending this event, all ready to sign autographs and have a great time.

In collaboration with Eric Leone and the Uconn Ski Club, I will be hosting a Poor Boyz premiere event in CT. It will be in Dodd Theater at Uconn on September 27th. More info to come soon.

East Coast Super Shoot

This past weekend, I was chosen as a finalist in an event called the East Coast Super Shoot. Five photographers were chosen to go to Stowe Mountain in Vermont and shoot photos for two days. Each photographer picked one rider and one skier to bring along. On Saturday afternoon, each photographer had to make a presentation incorporating their action sports portfolio images with the photos they shot on Friday and Saturday morning. It was an extraordinarily fun weekend. I want to thank my skier Colin Sirois and my rider Jesse Curran for absolutely throwing down, they really made it easy to GTS (get the shot). We captured some great images and I think the final product came out well. I would also like to thank Stowe for the food, hotels, and an overall fantastic event. Also thank you to Orage, Burton and Pocket Wizard for hooking up the athletes and photographers with some sweet prizes.

SU CASA!

I had a blast Friday night in Boston. I got the opportunity to visit my friend Rob Losier and watch his band (Su Casa) play their first live performance. For those of you that know Rob, you are probably well aware of how musically gifted he is. When you combine his talent and style with two brilliantly skilled musicians from Berklee you get a pretty solid formula for a band. I feet very fortunate to have been there and to have photographed it because they truly blew everyone away.

Poor Boyz Rail Trip

Professional skier Nick Martini asked me to travel with Poor Boyz Productions and Salomon Freeski TV on a week long urban rail road trip. Writer Mike Rogge will be releasing articles about our trip and I will link you to them as they are posted. I will post some photos after I figure out which ones are being used in publications. Thanks again to Cody Carter from Poor Boyz and Steve Horton from Salomon for giving me this opportunity. Also props to the athletes, Nick Martini, Matt Walker, Alexis Godbout, and Jen Crichton for performing some of the most monumental rail skiing in history. Look for the footage in PBP's next movie; "Every Day is a Saturday" dropping next Fall.
