Trail Running
This image was shot as part of a personal project. I had the idea of wanting to shoot a top down image that really showed the body position of the runner through the shadow. This location is at a local park and a walking bridge passes over the gravel trail below. This was the perfect location as it allowed me to get above my athlete (Will Goneau) as he ran through. It took a few tries to get the exact body position with the shadow, but since we were working in a small space it was easy to have Will run through multiple times.
Rainy Day Soccer
From an early age, I played soccer. Starting with the leagues where all the kids chase the ball around the field, eventually moving on to indoor leagues and high school soccer. I was never the best but always had fun playing. After high school, I stopped playing, but I still enjoy kicking the ball around.
Photo Gallery: Out for a Paddle
I’m always trying to keep my eye out for a canoe, regularly checking buy and sell pages and Craigslist to see what is available. The right one is yet to come along, but I know it will eventually. While I would say I’m far from a regular on the water, some of my earliest memories are from boats. From learning to sail my parent’s Laser, to going on canoe trips at Boy Scout camp, to taking my dad’s Adirondack Guideboat for long rows on the Finger Lakes of New York. To now owning paddleboards and using them to explore the many lakes around British Columbia. I love the ability a boat offers to switch up the perspective and look at the shoreline and provide the freedom to glide into every nook and cranny and see what is there.
Behind the Scenes: S-Curves
When I lived Utah, anytime I was going up into the mountains to adventure, or snowboard I would drive past this spot in Big Cottonwood Canyon. I had scoped this angle when checking out a climbing location and knew I wanted to make a photograph here. It was a matter of waiting for the ideal conditions.
