The big smoke.....

Lately I have been so busy riding I havent found time to do much else, but that has led to some awesome days shredding with the crew. Last week Steve'o tells me they want to do a sesh in Calgary, so I get super pumped then last minute he tells me its off.

Then 7am the day we were meant to be goin to Calgary he calls and says we can GO, we just have to squeeze everything into my van. Little did I know it was goin to be me, 4 other guys, 4 snowboards, my camera gear, Logans filming gear, 5 shovels, a bungee cord and 4 pairs of smelly as boots. A coffee stop, 2 'Safety' meetings, a couple of dodgey lookin half flat tyres and whole lot arguing weather or not the run for the rail would work, the boys finally get to do some boardin' and here's a little sample of the jump off.

Still old name, but rad new shop!!!

After working nights and riding days, I got a shout from Amy @ MT Magic asking if i could come in and do a shoot of the now renovated shop. At first I thought it was more for a their FB or something turns out it was going to also be for the new add they're running in some of the local rags. So no problem I do the shoot and all goes great, then I get told the add was kind of suposed to be ready a little while ago.

So I come back in first thing, Me and Amy sit down choose our favourites and create an add that im quite proud of considering the time frame and skill level with photoshop. Here's what we come up with.

Big crew and no sleep...

For the last few days I've kind of been skipping some sleep to get up the for the epic pre-season conditions. All the mountains have so much snow, who wants to sleep!!! So I have a few snaps of the boys jibbin around Sunshine Village and all in all have an awesome day riding. Oh I almost forgot, (from top to bottom) Steve-o/ Back one tree bonk, Steve-o/portrait, TK/Indy, Mike/Back one fence gap (and almost takes a old skiier dude too :D)

Here we go.......

I have decided to start this blog to document new works and projects im working on.
So as this is my first, I am currently working (photographing) for a local clothing store here in Banff that has a small snowboard team. I would tell you the name but they still can't decide on what they want. They are in the middle of changing it to go with the renovations.

Im in the process of documenting thier renovations. Throughout the winter season i will cover parties and events around the shop and it's associates, also we are looking at a model shoot for some new clothing lines this season. keep reading, i'll try to keep you posted of the happenings here in the Bow Valley from my lens.

tucky.
