Fun little spot I did this past month for the MN Zoo. Pretty small crew and tight budget, but at least the animals were caged this time.

Last weekend, a good friend Brian Suerth asked I would help him shoot a music video he was directing. Like most music videos there wasn’t a budget to speak of so everyone involved was there on volunteer basis. We asked a couple others and thankfully they said yes. So with our super small nimble crew, we were able to get in and out of 6 locations, shoot time lapses, and complete the video in a short two day span. Again, the turnaround time for music videos typically are really quick as well, so I’m pretty sure Brian was up late every night this past week editing like a mad man. Thankfully he did because I think it turned out quite good.
Thanks again everyone involved! And thanks Brian for asking me to be a part of this project! Pretty stoked on the results.

#orphanedphoto This image of Terra Michilot from back in 2010 never saw the light of day.
MN finally has snow again and I have been able to get out and shoot some snow this past week. Some pretty sick stuff went down, both on and off boards.

Well, Crashed Ice is over. It was a very productive (but cold) couple of days of shooting. One of the highlights was definitely seeing Cameron Naasz representing the US on the podium once again, especially on his home turf.









Today started out fairly slowly. I ran errands, reviewed some footage from this past weekend, etc. On the way home, I was driving across the Hennepin bridge when all of a sudden traffic came to a halt. In front of us was a large river running through the streets of downtown Minneapolis. While deciding whether or not to cross, I grabbed my camera and started taking photos. Then, as the water levels got higher I realized I had no other decision but to go across. I couldn’t help feeling like I was playing “Oregon Trail” as I forged the river. I then found the first parking spot I could and got out to take more photos. I was able to talk to a few construction workers who explained firsthand that someone had broken a water main with a backhoe, which had fallen over and was now sunken into the ground. I would have to say, it wasn’t how I expected my day to go, but it definitely added some excitement.
