Pleasure Magazine Cover in Germany.

John Jackson sends it for the film "The Art of Flight" to be released next fall. He lands way below the bottom of the photo in what some are calling the biggest air ever.

John Jackson Cover of TWS Photo Annual

After a long day of shooting in AK we flew back to our lodge and I went straight to my room and downloaded the days images. I knew I had a few bangers in there but it wasn't until I saw this shot on my screen that I realized how good it really was. After seeing this shot for the first time, I think John and I both knew deep down this shot was going on the cover.

Mikkel Bang on the Cover of Norwegian Magazine

I shot this photo of Mikkel at the end of the day during a week long stretch of sunny days in Whistler, BC. The crew was motivated so we didn't stop till the sun dropped.

New TWS Cover Shot of Devun Walsh

I've been shooting Devun Walsh for almost 20 years now. I've watched him go from the kid without a sponsor, to the kid everyone wanted to look like, to the legend he is today. It took him a lot of hard work, on and off the snow. Whether it meant hiking the jump just one more time, driving solo to Utah for a photo shoot or only spinning a switch backside 5 because a 12 will look like shit, Devun knows that being a professional snowboarder is more than chuckin' whatever the newest trick is. He does it all better than anyone else out there, and here is the proof.

Story Behind The Shoot Out Photos

This is a video that Joe Carlino made with me about some of my photos that won the TWS Team Shoot Out. You can view the feature on TWS.

Transworld Snowboarding Cover Shoot

This season the editors at Transworld Snowboarding Magazine have decided that a photo of the latest and greatest product will be showcased on the cover, instead of your typical action photo that you saw for the past 20 or so years. With weeks of debates on how the product was going to be shot, the photo was now past due and needed to be shot now. I assisted photo editor Nick Hamilton on the job along with TWS art director Dustin Koop and associate art dude John Antoski. The original idea was to shoot all the product together highlighting specific features of the product with antique magnifying glasses. After hours of "try this and try that, no move it here no move it there" we had to give up on the idea and move on. It just didn't feel right, and sometimes ideas work better on paper than in the studio. In the end we decided on a completely different look. The photos were shot and sent back to the art department for layout. Checkout this cover photo and all the latest in snowboard gear in the 2010 TWS buyers guide hitting newsstands August 18th.

It just doesn't feel right, does it?

SBC Surf Cover

Today I received a phone call and an email from photo editor Jeremy Koreski. He told me that a photo I took in Nicaragua this spring while shooting for Ripzone will be used on the summer cover on SBC Surf. The photo is of Australian transplant Shannon Brown, who now calls Tofino, British Columbia home. The photo was shot from the beach with a Canon EOS 1D Mark III and 600mm lens. This is my first surf cover and it has been one of my biggest goals since I started to surf surf a few years ago.

Transworld Team Shootout Winner

Last week at the Transworld Snowboarding Magazine (click for more) head office in Carlsbad CA, photo editor Nick Hamilton and editor-in-chief Annie Fast finally announced the winners of the 1st Annual Team Shoot Out. Since this was all done in secret, neither of the teams knew what the others had built, what the photos looked like or how the video was edited until that night. The 4 teams gathered in the TWS gallery for first time photo and video viewing before the winner was announced. I must say, I was more than surprised when Nick unveiled my photo of LNP on the cover of the September issue and us (Rome Snowboards and Bear Mountain) as the winning team. I would like to thank everyone at Rome and Bear for making this all possible. You all kicked ass and helped make this event a success.
