Last fall, when Apple announced the new Retina 5K iMacs they used one of my surfing images to promote the new machine. Just recently I started seeing the ice climbing image shown above being featured on the 5K iMacs. As always, it is an honor to work with Apple. They are one of the most prestigious...
A few months ago, while in New York City meeting with various clients and sponsors, I met with the fine folks over at Popular Photography magazine. I showed them my portfolio and this wave image in my portfolio wowed them. Amazingly, just a few months later, this image (as seen below) is on the cover...
My recent project Hypersync Surfing went live on Elinchrom.com last week. For this project Elinchrom and PocketWizard were kind enough to ship out quite a bit of gear, which allowed me to experiment more with Hypersync techniques and make the above image a reality.

This year marks the 18th year I have been working as a full time pro photographer and I am very much looking forward to 2015. Before we cross over the threshold...
Enjoyed your workshop on Sunday. Did you see the new Leica SL that dropped today? It’s a Nikon killer!
Thanks Fred. Saw the new Leica this morning but at three times the price of a Nikon D750 I fail to see how that 24 MP camera will be a Nikon Killer….
The D750 only does 6.5 frames per second. The SL does 11 fps and shoots 1080p up to 120fps (or 4k but not that fast). Of course, with only one lens available for the SL at launch, it may be a while before anyone switches systems.
