6/23/09- Check out this killer shot I took of Adam Jones the other day. My BFF, Ryan Leyba, at ESPN liked it so much that he made it the ESPN FMX photo of the day. Click this link to view it.
Also, any serious web designers out there want to redesign this site? It is time for a revamp and I don't have the time right now to do it. Drop me a line if you are up to the challenge. .

6/15/09- It is possible that I might have fallen a little behind on photos... Ok, to be honest, I did, but photos are better late than never. Here is a new gallery from Deegan's house last month. I have had other things on my mind lately. I am working on a potential new project. I don't want to say what yet, because with my luck, if I do, it won't happen. Let's just say if it does happen, it will open new doors for me. For now, I am keeping my fingers crossed!
Today, I am heading to Santa Monica for a Red Bull photo workshop. I feel honored to be invited, because only 19 photographers across the US were invited. To top it all off, I have been placed in Red Bull's "Established Photographer" group with just 7 other photographers! Perhaps I know what I am doing after all. HAHA!

6/12/09- I stumbled upon some photos from Faisst's house while going through my hard drive. There are a bunch of killer shots of Faisst, Potter, Nate Adams, Maddo, Garland, and more. Click the image on the right to view the photos.
In other news, Twitch's house was robbed last night. Yes, you read that correctly, robbed. Someone broke into his garage and stole just about everything they could get their hands on. Visit the Metal Mulisha site for more information on how to help out. Be on the look out for this bike and it's parts!

6/9/09- Twitch, Potter, Maddo, Fitzpatrick, Taka, Garland, Dusseau, Agee, and Stephens all rode in an action-packed demo for the people at the Temecula Balloon and Wine Festival. The turn out for both demos was insane, with fans lining every inch of the fence. Not only did the fans get to see the top FMXer's ride in their home town, but they also were able to help raise money for the Lusk Legacy Foundation by purchasing t-shirts, wristbands, and stickers. Afterwards, the City of Temecula held a remembrance ceremony honoring the life and achievements of Jeremy. Click the image on the right to view all the action.

5/27/09- My Memorial Day day weekend was an absolute blast. On Friday I went to Deegan's to shoot some photos of the guys. Don't worry, photos from there are coming. I went to bed early that night so I could get up early to shoot Glen Helen. I ended up getting there at 7:30am. What the heck was I thinking?
The racing action was great, and from the looks of it, 09 is going to be one hell of a season. The amount of talent is for onces evenly distributed between the 450 and 250 classes. There really is no clear choice for champion like in years past when Carmichael and Stewart were in the running. I was hoping to get to attend some late night festivities after the race, but by the time I got home and showered it was almost 10. Needless to say, 14 hours at the track wiped me out and I went to bed instead.
On Sunday I rode at Starwest with my buddies from NJ, Justin and Bayo. I haven't ridden with them in years, so it was a lot of fun. I did end up taking a digger at the end of the day and I now have a bruise the size of a baseball on my forearm. That didn't stop me from enjoying a BBQ/pool party in the afternoon. There's nothing quite like dirt bike wounds, good friends, hot chicks, and lots of Cisco!
Sound exciting enough for you yet? It gets better. On Monday I went with Twitch to McGrath's 700+ acre ranch to shoot photos of MC, Pastrana, Nitro Circus, Twitch, Potter, Renner, Josh Grant, Will Hahn, and Josh Summey. I felt like a little kid again and was completely star struck being at MC's place. It was a childhood dream come true, but I kept my composure. HAHA. There was lots of sick riding, cool stunts, and a little bit of carnage. I'd love to show you all the photos from there, but I have to wait for the OK to release them first.
So yea, I am a lucky bastard. I am extremely appreciative and fortunate for the things I get to do on a regular basis. Some how I manage to get paid for it all. I know this isn't going to last forever, so I might as well live it up while I can. Wouldn't you?
My offering for you all today is a massive gallery from Glen Helen, featuring over 425 photos! I haven't put together a gallery that size in quite some time. Going through and editing all these photos sucked because I wasn't able to lay my left arm down on a desk. I encountered a cramp or 30 during the process. HAHA. Enough of my rambling.

5/16/09- This past Thursday the Metal Mulisha guys put on a demo for the Marines at the Camp Pendelton base. It was great to give back to the fine men and women who give their lives to keep our country safe. They were even nice enough to let us play with their ultra deadly helicopters too. It was a lot of fun. Check out all the action on the Mulisha blog.

5/13/09- My NV/HC! get away went by way too fast. It took us all a solid 3 days to recover from the Vegas trip. Our livers were hating us! I was even forced to visit an Urgent Care. I have been sick since my Glamis trip and it turns out I had a sinus infection. I was forced to go to the doctors to get antibiotics. Man, I hate going to the doctors office and thankfully, it went smoothly. When we weren't busy perfecting our band on the new Metallica Guitar Hero, playing Madden, tanning by the pool, or having killer dance parties, Mason and Jones actually rode. Check out the photos from Dustin Miller's house.
