Personal Project
September 8, 2010
For the last couple of years I’ve been entertaining myself while working on what I believe to be my ever evolving style. The vehicle for this has been a loose documentary based on the Colorado bicycle culture. All will eventually be represented as I envision this to last well into my career. Lately, I’ve been tied up with an achilles tendon injury so the only thing I’ve been creating is a plan. A plan to get back out there as soon as possible to continue the documentation. Through a network of classmates and social media I was extremely fortunate enough to have parts of this project published in American Photo Magazine this month. I cannot thank all of the folks involved for giving a damn about something I thought no one even cared or knew about. It’s an honor. Anyway, here are the pages from the magazine but you should go out and buy one yourself. I bought three.

Letting people be people…
June 3, 2010
I’ve never been one to make images of subjects performing for the camera but last night had me thinking while out at the weekly cruiser ride in downtown Denver. I started to think about camera awareness in relation to the given subject. Many of the folks like to get in my field of view and perform for the camera usually I let them do their thing and politely move on and observe from a distance until they forget about my being there. I started to look at several of these images with the mindset that these kids are just being themselves regardless of them looking into my camera or not. In a way every subject alters their behavior when a camera is present sometimes we just fail to notice so. The ideal situation of true personality often shines through after continually documenting one subject for a prolonged period of time. This is trust. As photojournalists we live for this. People letting us into their lives. For now enjoy some canned moments alongside of some visual observations. Cheers.

Building a bike
February 16, 2010
Not too many of these types left in the days of automated laser guided machinery. My goal with this overall cycling project has always been about the people behind the bike. This is Joe Depaemelaere. Much like a freelance photographer he is the marketing, production, human resources, builder,and general creative vision behind Primus Mootry Bicycles based in Longmont,Colorado. His craft started as a hobby and has progressed over the years. Please enjoy having a look into the shop. Thanks Joe.

Exhuastion
February 11, 2010
Made my way back over the the indoor Velodrome again the other day. We showed up late hoping for a scheduled race but soon found out that only two of them bothered to come that night. Regardless, they still raced until exhaustion.

Where’s the crowd?
November 30, 2009
This was a question I asked myself yesterday at the RRV Cyclocross series in Golden,Colorado yesterday. I headed out yesterday morning with one goal in mind. Make no pictures with people riding bikes. I wanted to get down to the supporters and character of the sport. Turns out it was very slim pickings. Oh well. Next week’s state championships could provide more character. Here are a few from yesterday. Enjoy.

The Blue Sky Velo Cup was a ghoulishly good time this weekend. Mud,mud, and more mud made for some exciting and colorful moments. Here are a few from my take.

Denver Derailler Collective #2
September 18, 2009
So last night I went back to the Collective to drop off some prints and only took one camera and two lenses. My intention was to give back to an organization that has given me their time and allowed me into their world with ease. This is something I have not done since a few years ago. I could most likely get up on my soapbox now and talk about how important it is to understand and give back to the subjects photographers follow. Now, if I could only work on being a better self editor. I hadn’t planned on making many more frames but I couldn’t resist the juicy light. Enjoy. Feel free to help me edit this down as well everyone. Cheers.

Lookout Mountain
September 10, 2009
Four miles of sheer joy and pain as cyclists ascend Jefferson County’s Lookout Mountain on a weekday evening. This mountain has meaning to me personally. As I climb to the top the days thoughts disappear and I’m focused on one goal,finishing. I love this mountain. Here are a couple from the other day. I need to work the light more as the summer slips away into fall. Cheers.
Denver Derailler Collective
September 4, 2009
This week it is my pleasure to introduce you guys to the good folks at the Denver Derailler Collective. According to their mission statement and from the countless number of people I spoke with yesterday evening they are trying to put a bike in the hands of those in need. It is an open bike shop where one can grab a work station and fix just about any part on their two-wheeled vehicle of choice. I was a bit surprised by the sheer number of people taking advantage of this fantastic organization. Thanks for letting me into your world guys. I plan on coming back in the upcoming weeks. Enjoy.

Mallet Mafia
August 31, 2009
Last week’s cycling adventure led me to the Denver Mallet Mafia on the corner of Emerson and 13th Streets near downtown Denver. What I love about this personal project is that each and every time I go out to make pictures it tends to lead me in different directions. I plan on following up with this group of fantastic bike enthusiasts later in the season. Enjoy.
