Paraiso Lindo | Riviera Maya, Mexico
I recently had the pleasure of shooting a gorgeous wedding on the Riveria Maya – just north of Cancun on the gulf coast of Mexico. I can’t say enough about the quality of Iberostar resorts and the amenities. If you are looking for a beautiful destination wedding, look no further – Iberostar has a dozen resorts around the world. We had an amazing time and it couldn’t have been a better week. Congrats to Meaghan and Anthony, thanks for the memories!

This Weeks Photo Dump
A record 80 degrees in Bridgeport, CT yesterday! It was beautiful up on the Seacoast as well – I’ve been getting into the bad habit of coming home after a shoot and putting my camera bag down without importing to the computer. I guess the weather is just too nice to stay inside.
Here’s this weeks take. Sorry, no sports this time. Spring skiing is in full effect and it looks like the next few weeks could be incredible up on Mount Washington. Remember, if you decide to travel up to Tuckerman’s and surrounding terrain, check the Avalanche Advisory and stay safe. After all – summer, bikinis and 80 degree weather are right around the corner.

The Yakovleff Project | Fall Update
Well, as some of you may know we’ve been working on a mountain biking film with Sasha Yakovleff. We planned on making it a short project and having the edit out by the end of July but as we got more filming done it became apparent that we could make it into a much more in depth film about Sasha and his lifestyle. We packed the car up and headed for Highland Mountain Bike Park today and had a blast, we filmed from bell to bell, mixed it up and scored some really solid shots. Thanks to Sasha for showing us around the mountain, Highland is mental!
Here’s a few frame grabs from the day.
On another note, we’ve been busy working on the Music Hall Gala video and a new :30 second spot for SNAP Infusion
Take a look at the final products:
Down Days: PNW
Well, in the past 3 days I’ve gotten more face shots than I did all season, but almost zero visibility and wind gusts over 75mph, the camera didn’t make it out of the bag. With the prospects of clear skies over the next few days the season norm kicked into gear thismorning with high temps and of course, rain. Instead of staring at my board all day, I decided to sort through some of the shots I’ve taken on the down days from the past few months.

Mittersill | January 22 & 24, 2012
Snow cover in NH isn’t quite as solid as Northern Vermont right now but it’s still skiable. We spent a few days skinning the Mittersill at Cannon this weekend in search of their reported 12″ of snow. Well, they didn’t get 12″ inches but what they did get was as dry as it gets and it skied extremely well.
House of Blues | Jan. 16, 2012
Went to Boston earlier this week to photograph an event at the House of Blues with a few buddies. Audible Events provided the setup & Chris the bartender supplied the free booze. Good night with friends & some good photos too.
On a very very sad sidenote, Professional Freeskier Sarah Burke passed away this morning from injuries sustained during a practice in Park City. Our heartfelt condolences go out to Rory & Sarah’s family. She will be truely missed in the skiing community.
Late Week Snowstorm
This my best rendition I could muster from my Utah Trip during the holidays. 5 Resorts in 5 Days; Park City, Canyons, Deer Valley, Snowbasin & of course the almighty Alta.
Looks like a moderate snowstorm is shaping up for the mountains later this week. It’s still a little sketchy as to whether or not it will fall as RA*N or the white stuff but seriously, what a winter we’ve had so far…..this one is long overdue.
Some forecasters are predicting 15″+ for VT and ME….right now the Loaf looks like the sweet spot but we’ve got our hopes up for some green mountain shredding. Famous Internet Skiers weather desk has this one dialed – Check their report on the link below. Hoping to head up to northern VT on Friday or Saturday!
