Shaver Lake - Ride

This last Saturday I met up with a few local boarders in our very own Shaver Lake to get some great action shots. It's been something that I have wanted to do for sometime now and the time finally came around to doing it. My cousin Jared came along with me and shot some video for a kind of behind the scenes look on how it all went down. We are going to incorporate his footage with my still images to hopefully make a great clip. I'll be sure to let you know in a future post when that gets done so you can check it out. Until then, here was just a few of the gnarly shots I got!

AMGEN Tour of California

So if you haven't heard by now, you're too late! The AMGEN Tour of California found their finish line here in old town Clovis. I have never been to any type of cycling event in my life and it was pretty intense around the last few corners. Michele and I found a spot 300 meters before the finish line to enjoy the show. All I can say is... those guys haul some serious ass on those straight away's!! I was kind of leaning through the railing a little to try and snap a few pictures of them coming down and they came soo quick I almost got anhialated. A few seconds later it was all over. I managed to recompose and get a few different shots before they were all at the finish line. Here's what I came up with. If you get a chance to go to something like this, do it! Very cool indeed.

Enjoy :)

Whitney

You might remember Whitney from a shoot we did about a year ago that I blogged HERE. Well we hooked up for a reunion yesterday and did what we could to make some more great images to add to her collection. Mr. weather caster man said it was supposed to rain... he was wrong like the usual 80% of the time. But the cloud cover made for some great light wherever we went. I absolutely love shooting on almost rainy or really cloudy/overcast days. The whole mood and skies really just get me going. She has such a great complexion to start with it make my job a little easier :)

I hope you enjoy!






I love the Fresno winter skies!
