Maddie and I have shot together a bunch of times before for dance. Maddie also has a horse, so we did some pictures out at Horseshoe J Dude Ranch with her and her horse Levi. At then end of the shoot we ended up doing a bunch of prints which turned out great.

Fitness Shoot with Jordan

Last month I had a fitness photoshoot with Jordan. He came in lean and muscular. The idea was to shoot bright fitness photos. It was a fun departure from my normal dark and moody fitness work.

We always get a light lift going in studio

Great way to show off the core

Ferrum Forge / Drop Crux

I got this one used off a guy on Reddit. It’s a great little titanium frame lock running on bearings with an S35VN blade. The detent is maybe a little strong as you really have to concentrate of the flip. Overall I’m happy with the knife. I brought it into the studio to get a few pictures of it.

The knife was designed by Ferrum Forge, sold by Drop and manufactured by We Knives.

New Knife Picture

I took my new We Knives Bishop to the studio for a quick picture in between shoots. It’s a great knife, one I’ve had my eye on for a while and it photographs beautifully. It is a titanium sub-frame lock knife with carbon fibre scales and backspacer and M390 particle steel. The bronze anodized bolster really sets off the look.

Fitness Photoshoot in the Rain

I brought out my rain machine again, but this time for fitness work. I had six fitness people come in during the day, they were all different fitness levels and we got some great images. Special thanks to my assisants for the day Reid and Tim, they shoveled a lot of water. Also thanks to Samantha Lynn Makeup who did 5 of the six women on the day. It was a really fun day, the water was cold, but the models were brave.

Photoshoot with Powerlifter April

Shooting with my friend April to show off her powerlifting. She’s only been at it a year and made tremendous gains. We shot at her gym Skywolf Fitness with her trainer Stefan. The idea was to show off the power and muscle and not to make it look pretty.

Fitness Photoshoot with Tyler

I had a chance to work with Tyler a plant based athete. One of the cool things he is doing is bringing a plant based jerkey to market. Tyler wanted to work with a dark theme for his fitness pictures with minimal distractions.

I was at Showtyme Fitness with Josh Demelo’s client Amber the other week for a fitness shoot. Showtyme Fitness is newly renovated and looking great. Josh’s clients are always high energy and super positive. It was great shooting with Amber.
