About a week and a half ago we wrapped 5 days of shooting on location with Keen Footwear here in the Portland area. I wanted to give a big thanks to Margret and everyone at Keen for the opportunity to be part of their team and to all the peeps who helped make it happen including Kelsey, Karen, Tsveti, Shay, Katana, Mike, and Kelly for being a trooper and bringing Malia out to the 'wrap party!' Here are a few of my favorite frames from each of the locations:
Just back after a week long shoot up in Seattle with Moving Comfort. Several days of stills and video on location followed by a few more days in the studio. Here's the rowdy cast of characters from the latter. Will work on getting some stills up as I wrap the edit.
It is pretty standard to always keep your eyes on the horizon, or where you are going, but it can be really nice (and healthy) to look back into the rear view mirror from time to time. I found the opportunity to do this recently when cleaning out an old cabinet and came across this Field Report for Patagonia, which was actually my first published work - I think back in the 1999 Holiday catalog if I remember correctly. The article was an excerpt from a journal that I was keeping the previous Austral Summer while working in Antarctica and some snaps from my Yashica T4. As I remember, it was a time of care free living and adventuring and my life (and work) has changed so much since - all for the good mind you - but it gave me some goose bumps to remember my experiences in this amazing place.
We shot an incredibly fun project for Sorel back in February that I posted about HERE and today am happy to share a Backstage Pass video from that same project. Thanks to Brian Baldwin who captured all the motion and did a big chunk of the editing on this, to the Sorel team for the opportunity and to the crew who made this come to life. You can watch the video HERE.
This little time capsule is filled with a lot of anecdotes and behind the scenes tidbits - things that I am working on, things that inspire me, places I have been, what happens in my daily world, etc.
