Something about this looks so painful, yet so damn peaceful.

The Division 1 Women’s Volleyball championship is one I’ve made a point of covering for the last couple of years. I personally enjoy going back and photographing the same championship more than one time. I tend to make better, more thought out, images when I can properly plan ahead of time. I’m already looking forward to next year. Cheers.

As 2011 comes to a close a new championship season begins. With each new season beginning we all start traveling to various cities throughout the country to gather images for the NCAA. Last week was the Women’s College Cup in Kennesaw, Georgia. Here are a few images I personally like from the event.

Bike Crew

For about 3 years I’ve been working on cycling culture documentary here in Colorado. And for those same number of years I have also managed to neglect the mountain biking community. This season I got back on the mountain bike saddle for the first time in awhile. This is where I started my passion for bikes. On the trail. There seems to never be an exact plan for my photography but in this scenario I have high hopes to continue documenting a sport I truly love. Thanks for looking.

On the move…all the time.

Peak Ambition

“This is insane.” I said to my father-in-law Jim Swanson. “The fact that the parking lot for the trailhead is full at 1:30 a.m. on a weekday blows my mind.”

Many people attempt the summit of Longs Peak every year. Some make it to the famous Keyhole and even fewer make it all the way to the 14,255′ peak.
Ever since his summit attempt nearly ten years ago my father-in-law Jim has had the intent of checking this peak off of his bucket list. After 12 hours of hiking we completed the mission. Done. I always enjoy going to the mountains with Jim for one main reason. He truly appreciates them. I enjoy watching him staring in awe at their beauty. Thanks for another memorable trip Mr. Jim. Here’s to many more.

National High School Finals Rodeo

The sound of the tailgate barely closing on a car full of assorted gear marked the beginning of a trip up to Laramie, WY for my co-worker Matt Sewick and myself. There we met our company’s founder Mr. Rich Clarkson to begin making still pictures and photographs of the moving variety for the National High School Rodeo Association which is based here in Denver,CO. Rich has been photographing the National High School Finals Rodeo now for a little over 10 years. The video piece is currently being assembled by Matt but in the meantime I thought I’d throw out a few of my favorite stills from the experience. Thanks to everyone with the National High School Rodeo Association for making this a truly unique experience.

ESPN Summer X Games

Never a dull moment at the ESPN Summer X Games in Los Angeles,California. My job is one fluid movement from venue to venue making frames to appease the editors all while making frames that please myself. Here are a few from the event. Cheers.

Mountain West Conference Baseball

Seven baseball games over three days. Two slices of pizza. Three In-N-Out burgers with fries. Several rumors of a rattlesnake on the field. Four to five San Diego State University student fans heckling non-stop for two games. Two consecutive night chasing moments in fading evening sunlight. One surprise champion, the University of New Mexico.
