I’m so grateful to be going back to Phoot Camp this year. I’ll be heading to Joshua Tree to be reunited with friends new and old, and I can’t wait to see what photographic goodness we can create.   This was my self portrait application which I couldn’t have done without the help of some good friends.  The idea behind the photo was to accompany my written application, which talked about giving without expectation and referenced a time when fellow Phooter, Ryan Schude stood under an icy cold waterfall, shivering while I took long exposures, all the while saying “I can do another one, I can do another one.”  I wanted to tell the story of trying something over and over in order to make something great. See it larger, here.

I’ve also put together a short video of how I did all the jumps. At one stage I was attempting it with a crutch! Not a safe idea… well the whole thing wasn’t very safe.

You can see some photos from some other Phoot Camps that I’ve attended, here.

This is Paul, a friend and photographer based out of Chicago. He’s a photographer that never fails to inspire me with his knack for creating stunning photographs with a certain beautiful simplicity that will have you kicking yourself, wondering why you never thought of it first. I photographed Paul as a part of my photographic series called, “In Their Shoes“, which looks at these honest moments of distraction that get captured before, during and after the “main” photographs have been taken.

It’s been a busy, but fun few months with a lot of travel, exhibiting and exciting new jobs. One of my recent highlights was working with The Famous Group to shoot this summer campaign for Foot Locker. The shots are now up in-store promoting Foot Locker’s latest summer collection.
