First snow of the season can get me pretty excited.  This snow happened to be the night before the world premier of 2011 Warren Miller movie.  I had to take a little overnight camping trip into the Wasatch mountains to check out the new snow and the last bit of fall before ski season.

I have wanted to get this shot at the Aspen world cup for a long time, but couldn’t quite find the Aright spot until the 2^nd run this year.  The set over the road was perfect and I knew I had to try it.  This was my favorite frame mainly due to the ponytail flying behind her.

I have had this idea to shoot racing through trees for a long time. For a Downhill race there are very few spots photographers that are allowed to stand due to obvious safety concerns. This guarantees you the same photo year after year, with 50 other photographers getting the same exact shot as you… not awesome. I felt super lucky to find this unique birds eye view of Ted Ligety racing the Birds of Prey downhill at Beaver Creek.

After getting kicked out of the first spot I’d chosen to take pictures, I slid down the course to stumble upon a gate I knew Ted Ligety would absolutely crush.  Ted is the only man on earth to create these types of angles.

Mt Hood is the center of the universe for skiers in the summer time.  This is one of my favorite views of the mountain’s east side.

One of the perks of coaching ski racing in the summer time is getting to explore the state of Oregon.  No more than 3 hours from the mountain lays the Oregon coast and Cannon Beach.

Keely Kelleher and I went on a little trip to Moab, Utah this fall.  About 10 minutes into our Slickrock ride, one of the craziest looking storms started to roll across the valley.  We turned around and quickly rode back to the car to get a camera and strobes. We knew we only had a few minutes before rain, so we set up pretty close to the parking lot and started firing.
