How did you get your start in photography?

I got my start like many other action/adventure photographers. I was a participant first, then, as my friends got better than me, I gravitated towards a camera and progressed that way. I had always been drawn to technology as well as art so I guess it was the perfect combination of the two.

Which accomplishments are you most proud of?

Overall I’m super proud that I have been able to make a living off of doing what I love. It’s been an amazing ride so far and I have been fortunate enough to create many memorable projects and images that I have been super proud of.

Which Custom SLR products do you use?

I use both the Glide One Strap as well as the Dual Strap, the C-Loops and the M-Plate Slim on all my cameras and accessories.

How does using these products improve your photography and/or comfort? What difference can you feel?

I honestly have been amazed at how much the Custom SLR gear helped me shoot. I had always been frustrated with conventional camera straps over the years and once I changed to the Custom SLR system it has been amazing. I put C-Loops on all of my cameras, as well as my larger lenses (such as a 70-200) which allows me to quickly switch between cameras without having to take the strap off. It may seem like a small inconvenience, but often I find myself shooting with my backpack on, or, in the cold with many layers of clothing and having to take off the strap can be quite annoying. Now I can just clip in the camera and go.

If you could have one superpower, what would it be?

I have actually thought about this a lot in my life. I have always wanted to be invincible. I don’t like being sidelined by injuries and hate it when I cannot work or play due to illness. It would be nice to not have to worry about that anymore and maybe be able to take chances without any risk. That and being able to do a lot of the things I get to photograph (snowboard off buildings, big wave surfing, etc.) with no consequences would be a lot of fun too.
