Jacque and Dane

Two cooler people you will be hard-pressed to find.  Both firefighters, both seriously awesome college athletes, Jacque and Dane were a blast to work with, as well as a comical challenge for me shooting them and their friends; nearly all of whom are college athletes as well, and nearly all of whom were also a good 6 inches taller than me.  Keeping it majorly local their wedding was a reunion of sorts, with a solid number of guests from my hometown of Waterville, it was great to see some of my former teaches, coaches and friends all in one place to celebrate in such a cool place.  

Now go give someone a high five for love,

Two of my best friends are gettin hitched and I was super stoked when they asked me to do their engagement session, a killer Bellingham sunset came through big time for us, making a perfect end to an awesome day. I'm not even going to apologize for posting so many, these kids are good lookin.

Northwest Riders Wake Series, Part Deux

For the second year in a row the guys at Northwest Riders put down the Northwest Riders Wake Series, in which tons of local wakeboarders and wake-skaters, young and old, am and pro, threw down on some of the biggest sickest double-ups known to Washington, and mankind.  On beautiful (man-made) Lake Tye in magical Monroe, Washington, a perfect day with a PNW sunset finished off the Pro double up contest for friday night, and a mellow Saturday afternoon of several heats of riders followed for the competition.  

Kicking it (literally) in my fins and classy bright yellow mike's hard lemonade float chair, I was stoked to keep my gear dry, and land some shots I was pretty happy with.  

Don't let anyone tell you Wakeboarding is for wimps.  The vid below ought to show you.  These guys go big, and water doesn't feel good when you hit it going 40 or 50.
