Oregon Dreaming
We spent a week shooting at the legendary mileppost35 camp in the foothills of Mount Hood, OR. Here are the results.
QuikrStuff Website Refresh
We undertook the task of rebranding the website for Grand Junction based bike rack company, QuikrStuff. This company stands for a lot of things we believe in, including rural manufacturing and aMerican made cycling products, so we knew this would be a fun project! The scope included some use-case and Lifestyle shoots, and some studio sessions for products.
Freeride Fiesta 2023
We started the year off with a bang, shooting photos for Commencal bikes and Tirefire Fenders at Freeride Fiesta in Guadalajara, Mexico.
We managed to survive the hectic driving, street tacos, and stinky shrimp micheladas to come away with amazing memories and a collection of photos we are proud to share!
2022 Recap “Shots Fired” featuring In the Hills Gang
What better way to wrap up the year than with a highlight reel of everything we filmed with In The Hills Gang in 2022… Enjoy!
A Year To Remember
2022 took us on a voyage. A heathen’s voyage! We followed In the hills gang from new Mexico to Canada filming the two part series “heathen’s voyage”. It was a true journey through the heart of every freeride zone we could think of. We are truly grateful to get to be part of the underground freeride movement. Thank you so much to all the people and companies that helped make this a possibility. Take a look at the final films below.

Camino Loamorado
there are few urban legends that seem to transcend through time - Sasquatch, The Loch Ness Monster, Ichabod Crane - but there’s one, only known to a chosen few.
old timers speak of a road that leads to this promised land - a place full of chunky loam chutes and endless days of dirt surf.
This road, this legend, is the camino loamorado.
we met up with alex chay In the desert as he started his journey down the camino. He tells us that this landscape has changed over the years. that here used to be a lush forest, with pines as far as you could see.
though, don’t let the lack of trees fool you - alex brings a style to these parts akin to big mountain skiing. carving out lines ridden by few, but talked about by many. some might think this desert zone must be the perfect playground, but for chay, its the loam that keeps him up at night.
and so, to that promised land, he must go.
BME | Winter Park
Last weekend, Winter Park hosted the third stop of the Big Mountain Enduro grand tour. The race consisted of four stages, covering 15.8 miles with 4,954ft of climbing coupled with 4,944ft of descent. Riders, from the groms to the pros, conquered chunky rock gardens and found their flow among the berms.
The competition was high, and major respect is given to everyone who left it all out on the mountain. Especially to those who came away with a podium.

Canyon Country Camping
This weekend a group of friends went to celebrate a 30th birthday with some camping and hiking near Canyonlands National Park in Utah. Here are some images from our time spent kicking dirt in the desert.

Desert Freeride Session
A few weeks ago I got an invite to shoot out in the desert below the Grand Mesa. I knew the terrain was going to be epic, and that the crew of riders was going to throw down. It was an awesome day for everyone, with the veteran of the group giving pointers to some guys who had never ridden lines like this before. It was pretty inspiring to watch and I’m really excited to shoot more freeriding.
Riders: Shawn Feverston, Jeff Martinez, Ethan Bell, Rich Hamilton, Harrison Haugh, Daniel Rhodes and Troy Cox.
