The last two issues of SBC Skier Magazine from Canada have hit the newsstands and I have a few more photos I’m pretty stoked on that made it into the magazine as well as three shots in their first ever Photo Issue as well.

I get a lot of photo requests for some uses that are far from normal but this is definitely a new one. I sold a few shots to Line Skis last season with a one-year unlimited license. It’s when you have those licenses out on your photos is where you see some different types of usages. Different, but pretty cool. I’ve never had a photo on an air freshener! This shot of Will Wesson was taken last winter with Level 1 Productions in my backyard of Salt Lake City, Utah. It’s in the most played urban skiing location, probably in the world. I somehow manage to get a shot every year from the Rail Gardens (Olympus Hills Park) due mainly to skiers getting creative and looking for a new spin on the same structures in the park.
Do you have a photo on an air freshener? You should!

I’m back on the road again for a few weeks so it may be quiet on the front here. Follow me on Twitter to hear random entertaining antics from urban ski trips.

2011 Powder Magazine Photo Annual Cover – Skier: Kyler Cooley.
Shot during the filming of “Gunnie Season” by 4Bi9 Media
This is the one, this is it. It’s the biggest thing that’s happened to me in my career. It’s the Powder Magazine Photo Annual, and my photo of Kyler Cooley is on the cover! My first Powder cover came last season (see it here) and it was a big deal. A real big deal for me. Literally a childhood dream. Now, a year later there’s another, but it’s on the Photo Annual. It’s the biggest issue of the season for the photographers and honestly it’s something I didn’t really consider ever getting. Needless to say, I’m pretty happy about it! If it doesn’t quite sink in to how happy I am, check this out and it will explain it a bit better.

Posting outtakes is something here I usually don’t get a chance to do. This time around though the shoot was for espn.com and with the instant turnaround time with web, I get to post these while they are still fresh! This few days of shooting was mainly about one thing. Fun. It most certainly was. These photos were shot at Alta, Deer Valley and Brighton Resorts in Utah after a few early season storms in October and early November. My lighting was pretty simple in these, some just ambient, but those that weren’t, usually just a few Nikon SB80 DX’s, an Alien Bees 800 and a Elinchrom Ranger RX AS Speed with the ol A-Head. Of course, add in a pile of Pocket Wizard Flex TT5′s.

The lovely people over at espn.com/action had me do a pre-season jib gallery back in late October working with some of the younger crew out here in Utah. From lift terminal rails at Alta to backflip jumps on snowmaking piles at Deer Valley the pre-season mini-shred is on. It was a ton of fun to go out and make some small features of no real consequence look cool. It’s great to work in simply a fun environment, free of the gnar factor sometimes. Add into the fact that my lighting was pretty simple in these, usually just a few Nikon SB80 DX’s, an Alien Bees 800 and a Elinchrom Ranger RX AS Speed with the ol A-Head. Of course, add in a pile of Pocket Wizard Flex TT5′s
The photo above was real simple, just one Elinchrom Ranger RX AS Speed with a Pocket Wizard Flex TT5 shot with a Nikon D3 and a Nikon 16mm f2.8 fisheye

Winter is coming. At home in Utah we had a early bout of winter but again, Fall has prevailed and it’s warmed up a bit before the next storm rolls through. Hopefully that next storm will to flip the switch from fall to winter. The seven months that lie ahead of me are full of snowy roads, planes, sharing two bed hotel rooms with four to ten smelly dudes, being stuffed into rental cars overloaded with gear, all so I get to shoot ski photos all winter. Yes, I’m looking forward to this.
