So I have just started using Instagram! Wow I love it, simple, easy, visually heavy. I posted a badge on the right side of the blog if you want to see my feed or follow me. Alternatively click on the badge below.

The Grand Canyon trip is quickly approaching. I depart for the west coast Dec26th, I need to remind myself to enjoy Christmas and Holidays as much as I can without thinking of the Canyon all the time. I'm still fine tuning my gear list and have had some incredible support from some partners and new ones. But thats another blog post in itself.

Enjoy!

Whitewater King of New York Moose race featured on Canoe and Kayak Blog

>> Wednesday, October 23, 2013

I had the opportunity to photograph the Whitewater Kings of New York Moose Race this past weekend. What a race, certainly one of the more exciting races I have shot. Too bad the crowd was at Ager falls instead of at Crystal where all the action happened. Click--> Here is a great write up by Matt Young.

The pass. Jared Seiler passes Justin Beckwith for the title.

Out Take from a Shoot with Tyler Curtis on the Ottawa

>> Thursday, October 10, 2013

An out take from a very productive shoot with Pro Kayaker Tyler Curtis.
I read a quote this week which reads: " Extra effort always turns simple things into magic"
This quote really made me think of this shot. Every though we scored with some other great images from the shoot, this shot is simple, Tyler's wave wheel is a very simple down river freestyle move. Ha! the wave wheel was invented and perfected years ago, but Tyler is putting effort into waking up at sunrise with me to go shoot. I was standing belly button deep in the water, trying not to get my gear wet.

On another note I will be kayaking the Grand Canyon in Jan, stay tuned for more images and stories to come.

Paddling Season Has Started

>> Thursday, March 14, 2013

I woke this morning with a stiff BOOF muscle, must be the start of paddling season.
A photo form the road, Geren and myself got on a high Roaring Branch River, Canton, PA. Super fun, lots of boofing an a few rolls in cold water started off the year.

Rapid Magazine - Spring 2013- Published Material

>> Thursday, February 28, 2013

A photo of mine from Gauley Fest was used in Rapid Magazines Spring Issue. In my eyes, this is one of the best issues Rapid has published. It has a bit of everything and the layout seemed a little different, less noise. Get yourself a copy if your itching for Kayaking season to start. it will fuel the fire! Enjoy.

Witte River, Bainskloof, South Africa

>> Thursday, February 21, 2013

A photo a friend gave me a few years ago. While I was back in South Africa I snapped a photo of it as it's hanging on my dads wall. I was paddling the Fluid Nemesis prototype on a steep creek, the Witte River. Thanks to Andrew Kellett of Gravity Adventures, for loaning me the boat for the day, as I recall I had recently put a whole in mine.

Where to, now ?

South Africa

>> Sunday, January 27, 2013

It's been ages since I've posted any photos. The past few months I have been traveling and visiting friends and family in South Africa. After 24months abroad its always a treat to come home to Afican Culture. Here are a few photos from the trip, if you are in the northern hemisphere and miss the sun you'll enjoy these ! 2013 is going to be a big year, I'm excited to get some projects started.
