My interest in photography began influenced by my favorite things i did as a kid.  Skateboarding and snowboarding were all that i focused on for mostly my first four years as a photographer,  before diversifying my work load.  Its different from every type of photography i shoot. The precise timing of capturing the quick movements,  being in big cities on trips with companies and your buddies cruising around.  Also, the late nights shooting somebody struggling to land a trick and seeing the hard work it takes to make some of the tricks they do.  Action sports photography will always be one of my favorite types of photography to shoot.  I began working for a mountain resort in western Pennsylvania in late 2012 doing that for a couple of seasons then went on to shoot for myself afterwards. Weather i was shooting snowboarding or skateboarding, i was always around some of the funnest people i ever had the chance to document.
