New Toys

Got a new lens for Christmas and some off camera lighting.  First thought?  Scary story face.  Here’s a quick self portrait from tonight.

Bonus Car Photo

Went to visit Charlotte, NC for the first time last week.  A friend of mine got engaged and he and his fiance just bought themselves a house.  I figure that warrants a visit.  On the ride down I started playing around w/ the camera (it’s a long drive).  Got this shot somewhere just outside of [...]

Maybe You Heard About the Snow in DC

Being that I’m a sports photographer, getting to location is of paramount importance.  So, when not flying, I need reliable, all-weather transportation. It should come as no surprise then that I drive a RWD convertible sportscar.  Huh? I said I was a photographer, not practical, hehe. Like the title of the post implies, we got [...]

Bike Rumor Pic of the Day

My muddy ‘cross pic was the pic of the day on Dec 14th.  Sweet!

Capitol Cross 2009

On Saturday the DC Metro area got between 2-3″ of snow, some suburbs registered a bit more.  Regardless, it made for a picturesque and MUDDY Capitol Cross 2009.  The USGP Finals were in Portland, OR this weekend as well – as much as I wanted to be out there, from what I was hearing (and [...]

Bonus Photo!

Forgot to add this as part of my Whitmore pics, so I’m giving it it’s own post. Jeremy Powers leading Tim Johnson.  I’m digging the colors, their expressions, and the fact that they’re both at the same point in their pedal strokes.

Whitmore Super Cross Cup in Southampton

My buddy Craig and I shot the Whitmore Super Cross Cup in Southampton, LI on Nov 21 and 22.  Full write-up about the races (along with some of my photos) can be seen on CX Mag (day 1 and day 2). I just want to share my favorite shots with you. Off camber, downhill, right [...]

USGP of CX @ Mercer

I had the opportunity to shoot the USGP of CX @ Mercer for CX Magazine in November.  This shoot was a lot of fun for me as I’m ‘local’ to Mercer.  I was born and raised 20 minutes down the road, and worked at a bike shop (Halter’s) that had a location not 5 minutes [...]

Unadilla MX Photos Are Up

Like I mentioned earlier, Unadilla has added some photos of mine to their website (thanks!).  They’re a bit small/low-res on the site so I’m resposting the same here, in higher quality.  Enjoy! Full set from the weekend can be seen, here.

TSO Photo on Flickr and Twitter!

I took the plunge and dove into both flickr and twitter last week.  Boom!
