Fitness Beauty Shot

This was such a fun shoot with Alexa Miller at Alta, UT. After Alexa got the job, she asked the magazine editors to let her cast us as the talent! It was fun for all of us to do a more fashion driven shoot and that they used us as real athletes and skiers.

Fitness Mag chairliftJill Klekas was the stylist on the shoot and she made sure we looked great. Here’s one of Iris Noack and me on Wildcat chairlift in Utah. I was so stoked to see a ski shot in a women’s magazine! January is learn a snow sport month so this shot was a perfect fit.

Fall Acting Class at the University of Utah

To all you U of U students out there, or for anyone who is looking for a challenge, the University of Utah offers an amazing opportunity to get comfortable in front of the camera.

I’ve taken Lynne Van Dam’s acting class four times during my university career, and I always seem to find something new to improve upon.  Acting is such an adrenaline rush and being comfortable on camera is a great life skill that can help you in many situations, from a job interview to giving a speech.

Ski Salt Lake Shootout 2009

Ahhhhhhhhhhhhh.  That’s me breathing a big sigh of relief after finishing the Ski Salt Lake Shootout for 2009.

The competition was hard! I love to ski and always have fun in almost any conditions, but the warm temperatures and lack of fresh snow made it tough.  On top of that, we were dealing with completely grey skis almost the whole time. 

Despite the adversities, I had a great time working with Alexa Miller and am proud of what we produced.  Shooting quality ski photography is incredibly difficult but we did some interesting things and I’m excited to see where these photos end up!
