Photographically 2011 was an amazing year for me. Lots of new opportunities came my way, 3 magazine publications, some product shoots, and a few personal projects. While everyone was out last night celebrating the end of 2011 and welcoming in 2012 I was going through Lightroom looking at the various projects I had worked on in 2011. For me I celebrated 2011 by walking down memory lane, thinking about what had been done and looking towards 2012 and the plans I have.
Here are some of the photographs that highlight my 2011. Enjoy!

I started off the year in January with a Yoga Shoot.

A personal project and one a lot of people really like, my last Mocha Art shot.

Another personal project, filming John Crosby who hand makes tabacco pipes.

Was able to only shoot one DINO MTB Race this past summer, it occured at France Park.

So there you have it, my 2011 with some photographs.
For 2012 I’m starting off strong. In early January I’m traveling to Ouray Colorado to photograph ice climbing at the Ice Festival. In February I’ll be headed to Vail Colorado to photograph the TEVA Winter Mountain Games.
Best wishes to everyone in this new year!
