New Section – Bonus Behind the Scenes

Sunday, September 4th, 2011

Just did an update following up the Romstad photos I shot back at the end of July. There is now a new section with a gallery of 15 images to go with the series, all available as prints. Have a look here:

Also over the last month I’ve had the pleasure of helping out Alterna Films with their intro for 13 o’clock, which is coming out this fall. I’ve shot a bunch of behind the scenes stuff that is up on push.ca:

Part I
Part II

Here’s a couple of my favorite shots:

There was cloud floating over the city the last couple days, checking the forecast I knew it wasn’t going to last long. Sadly I didn’t manage to shoot any mountain biking but did manage to do a hike with my brother Landon, up to the peak of Hollyburn Mountain after work. The fog was dense, it looked like not many people had been up there since spring, and the snow was still plentiful. We wrapped up the adventure with a good number of shots, two of which have made it into my People section on my portfolio, so have a look.

- Two major shows coming up for Exposure Festival in Calgary, 2 Minor ones…

A Sense of Place:
Here And Now:

Ryan Kostel made the main posters, so go to the actual shows to see my contact/price list posters they’re really grid based. #based

Aside from seeing some good posters you probably want to see the photos there. I’m pretty happy with the overall presentation we all decided on, also happy with most work thats in it. If you think you’re the exception from most you might be, do better.


- Shot so much I dont have time to process it all.

Baku-bank was in town a couple weeks ago filming for D.O.P.E. 2. “CH”  Theres some secret folder on my website directory with like 5 shots floating around in it. If you find them you should be pretty pumped, they won’t be posted anywhere because they are in the bank for submission. Everyone did a really good job at what they do. Some major jib tricks happened on all sorts of combo letter rails like dfdfdfd and dfdl, ect…



- Spot Scouting

If you talked to me over the last week you most likley have heard me going on and on about all these sick spots up this highway somewhere in some mountains. I went scoping with my boy Nick Pb(I’d link to his facebook or something but he got kicked off for not using his real last name). Heres shot, so people actually care about this blog post.
