I was recently on a trip with a bunch of climbers. Here is one of our breakfasts in a nutshell….or eggshell I guess. I liked this shot.

Suns Out, Guns Out

Freddie Wilkinson on Orange Juice, 5.12c at the Red River Gorge. Had a blast in the Red River Gorge. Now onto the next gorge in a neighboring state. We’re trying to take advantage of the amazing high pressure days as much as we can. And you know the saying- Suns Out, Guns Out!

Miguels Manfolk

Matt Hughes Everyone has their weaknesses and their strengths, whether they admit it or not. I’ll start with my one of my weaknesses- to continue to fire away when people take massive or sketchy whippers.

Night & Day

In 25 Seconds…..The 2010 Ice Fest!

Well, as though things aren’t busy enough for a full time photographer, I make myself even busier with an event I love. In my spare time (haha, laugh now) I also help put together an Ice Climbing Festival here in North Conway. It is 3 days full of sponsors, demos, a climbing competition, slideshow, beer…

Different Conditions

Matt McCormick has his systems down- slipping out of his sorels and into his fruit boots to start monkeying around. I was about to get out to shoot a bunch and my back went out on me. WHAT THE?!?! Talk about bad timing, as I was more psyched than a kid in a candy shop!…
