This is the second shoot of a little project that I have been working on for the last year. Every couple of months I look for new models who are willing to participate in my Pin-Up project. We set the date for a Sunday afternoon and rendezvoused at a secret location in Highlands Ranch. It is secret simply because nobody …
I have been fortunate to see quite a bit of bike racing in my career as a photographer. There are always new people to meet and new disciplines to experience. In the biking world, all genres seem completely different and unique. Each has it’s own lingo, it’s own special gear, and it’s own funny sayings and snobbish eccentricities. The downhillers have …
Growing up in Wyoming, the lights from the glowing oil derrik seemed to be the western version of the Northern Lights. They were untouchable and mysterious. They represented a world I knew nothing about. I remember driving through the vast empty space between Green River and Laramie, lost in thought. Pondering what life must be like on a rig. After …
Sitting in the first corner, I try to get myself as small as possible (eternally a challenge) so that the cyclists don’t clip me as they race by. Bike racing is always a challenging sport to shoot. It’s not like you can simply stand in front of the competitors and ask “hey can you hold that pose for just a …
I am drawn to cool short movies that are shot using “Stop Motion” techniques and/or by shooting with high-speed shutter option of still cameras. One of the coolest videos that has caught my eye is by a German photographer/producer, Roman Kuhn. He produced a five minute short that tells the tale of the new Mercedes Mclaren and a sneaking paparazzo. …
In 1965 Rachel B. Noel was elected to the Denver Public Schools Board of Education. This successful election made Mrs. Noel the first African American Woman elected to public office in the State of Colorado. In 2008 Mrs. Noel passed away leaving a living legacy of hope, tolerance, and inspiration that thousands of people benefit from today. A month ago …
Earlier this week my friend Paige Eden and I took a short trip east of town in search of an abandoned airfield. We had heard about many different airfields but most of them no longer exist. Paige turned me on to this cool photography site that explores urban ruins. These folks have it down, they check out old asylums, empty …
It’s 9am Sunday morning and the city feels sleepy under the lightly falling snow. The silence is strange since it is Super Bowl Sunday. People should be hustling from one place to another. But they’re not. The snow has made everyone a little sluggish, a little slow. This morning inspired me to wander through my neighborhood. I wanted to talk …
I love photographing people. A couple of months ago, I was talking with a good friend of mine and she happened to mention how she thought 1950’s style pin-ups were some of the coolest images of women ever made. She pulled out some old Betty Paige calendars, that her father had given her, and we wasted the better part of …
About two years ago, I met Alison while working at a local bike shop. At the time I had no idea she was such and incredible racer. What struck me was how kind and genuine she was. Well to tell you the truth, I was really taken by her awesome curly hair and her amazing smile…..who isn’t? I soon changed …
Eszter Horanyi, what can I say……..THIS GIRL FEELS NO PAIN. Any person that can win a 24 hour race is someone to reckoned with. Not to mention, she won it all alone! I was fortunate enough to meet Eszter a couple of weeks ago while on a shoot for an article posted on MTB Race News. We spent the morning around …
One of the first people I met in the cycling world of Colorado is still one of my favorites. I bumped into (literally) Susannah Gordon 3 years ago at a coffee shop on Pennsylvania Street during the ColoBikeLaw beginning of the year mixer. At that time she was just one of the ladies in the mix. Now, fast-forward three years. …
As the leaves turned to a golden hue, the stream was as clear as the Colorado sky and just about perfect for fly fishing. I look forward to this season as it signals a slowing down of the life cycle, a resting time for all things. It certainly is a time to reunite with friends and spend some quality time …
This last week I had the opportunity to visit my buddy Steve at his office. It just so happens that his office is an airplane hanger that houses two pretty awesome jets. Steve was looking for a creative corporate portrait that he could use to document the last few years of work. So, I met him for a 7am photo …
