New Monochrome Gallery on ESPN

A couple weeks ago I put together a gallery for ESPN that features only black and white photos. The majority of these shots were B Roll, meaning that at any given location I shot two photos of the same trick.  This gallery represents many of these B Roll shots that were too good to retire.  Check out the gallery here.

“Any photographer will tell you that there is always another angle for any given shot. And that is sometimes the question I’m left with after shooting photos, “Was there a better angle?” And if we are lucky enough to have a rider shoot with us for two different angles, one of the toughest things to do is to choose between two angles of one trick. Many of the shots in this gallery were second angles that never saw the light of day for one reason or another. I just got home from a commercial shoot, which was all black and white, so my mind was in B&W mode when I made these gallery selections.”

I am off to Phoenix for the next week with some of the Vans BMX team.  We are hitting up a race and some of the amazing skateparks so look for some fresh footage in the coming weeks.
