So how's life as the new photo editor at SBC?
Life is definitely good working with SBC, Working for a mag is something I've hoped for since I was a wee boy. When I found out that I did get the job there was a few days of disbelief that it was for real and then my head swelled and I knew I was officially rad.
What was it like when you finally got told that you are now working at SBC?
This season I did the most travelling I have yet for sure. Being able to travel with your friends and call it work is still kind of strange. It was a great season and I hope to do it all again next year.
You've been on the road a lot, how's that?
Travelling in India was awe inspiring, anywhere you look there's an epic photo waiting to be taken. Getting around and communicating is really easy which makes it that much better.
How did you like travelling around in India?
One of the best parts of travelling this year would have to be visiting the Taj Mahal. It's something that has to be seen in person since no photo or words can do it justice, truly amazing!!
Do you have any stories about the best and worst moments of travelling this year?
You have to go with the flow when you travel so any bad moments usually turn rad pretty quick.
You must see a lot of young photographers sending you their photos, any tips for them?
It's been really cool to have young photogs send me there shots and as for tips I just tell them to try new things and be aware of some golden rules.
Anyone this year that is blowing you away behind the lens?
There have been a few photogs that have definitely impressed me this year but you'll have to check out the mag to see their work first hand and judge for yourself.
What new riders do you think are making a big splash in 2008?
Andrew Geeves and Seb Toots have been on a tear this season. I think they're both going to have a lot coming out next season as far as photos and video parts.
What trend in 2008 do you see us regretting in the future?
All trends are ones that are usually regretted and I try not to pay attention. Being conscious of Global warming and how you can help out is a trend that won't be regretted though.
What do you think of the Whistler snowboard scene?
The Whistler scene can be like high school if you want it to or it can be amazing. Depending on the person it can be good or bad. I've been having a great time here for years and I plan on continuing to do so. Bottom line is that people all end up here for one reason, the mountains not the scene.
Do you still get to go out and shoot as much as you like?
Ya I've been able to shoot as much as I did before so nothing's changed as far as that.
Anything important coming up that we should know about?
I'm turning 29 this summer which should be pretty rad, want to come to my party?
Where can we see your work?
Snowboard Canada is the best place but just check photo credit and it might be mine somewhere else as well
Thanks, any shout outs?
Thanks to my wife Dawn, Family and friends and anyone I've met along the way. Good times had.
