Vegas Weekend

Three months ago I hopped on the relatively cheap Megabus and made my way to Las Vegas. In a mere 6 hours (and $24 total) I had reached my destination. I left my DSLR at home and brought along a Yashica T4 35mm point and shoot, which was the perfect camera for a Vegas weekend.

Ventura Weekend - Skateboarding

Everyone that came on this trip ripped at skating, which made my job as the photographer relatively easy.

This photo is pure skateboarding to me. We ended up at this empty lot looking for a spot, which had been rendered unskateable. We found this pipe laying on the ground, and although all of us were tired from a long weekend, we still kept pushing along. The desire to skate something new is always there. Angel gets the grind while Donny and Al wait their turn.

Justin Owens, front noseslide.

Kevin Shealy took this 5050 all the way to the end, and into the bank. Everything about this rail was sketchy.

This photo of Dan was taken about twenty minutes after he sacked a handrail. Not sure how he is smiling here.

My Dogs

Most of the photos I shoot back home are of my dogs, which are fairly photogenic if I do say so myself.

Hidden Bank

Last week, my friend Mario called me up and asked if I wanted to shoot some photos. I told him that I was down as long as we skated some stuff in his neighborhood, which I had never been to. It was refreshing to skate a new and unique spot.

Highland Park Miniramp

Spent my Wednesday skating around Highland Park, first at the Garvanza skatepark, then this Miniramp, which Race knew about. We skated, drank beer, and BBQ'd for a few hours. It made for a good Wednesday!
