5/20/2010 – Jonny and I set out on this beautiful spring day with the goal in mind of bagging both Dragon’s Tail and Dead Elk couloirs up in RMNP.

Read more "The Cabbage Couloir"4/30/2010 – Torrey’s Peak (14,267 ft) is the first 14er I ever had the opportunity to ski. Jonny, Casey, and I got after it with a traditional alpine start, leaving Boulder in the middle of the night and starting on the trail at around 4:30am. By the time we reached the base of the couloir […]

Epic skiing for a couple of days and my first time experiencing Silverton Mountain. Series of events leading up to the trip: 1.

Read more "Spontaneity and Silverton"Went out last week to start my education on flash usage, and felt that I took a few solid first steps. Decided to just do some portraits of my friend Casey LeFever (snowboarder in many of my photos) wandering around Boulder in the evening. Here are a couple of my favorites!
Read more "Playing With Flash"Finally got the chance to utilize the beautiful weather Boulder has been experiencing as of recent, and went out mountain biking with my buddy Matthew Federson. Sadly clouds rolled in just in time for the trail ride, leaving some great diffuse light for black and white shots. Mud was prevalent and we even saw a […]
