Hell yeah, get it Randy.

DAMAS Y CABALLEROS, ESTO ES HUMILDAD

Él es Randy Johnson y te recuerdo algo:

Ha sido el lanzador más espectacular en los últimos 50 años y se retiró en el año 2009 con ganancias totales de 175 MDD.

La Gran Unidad pudo haber optado por una vida de viajes y lujos por todo el mundo, pero decidió regresar a sus orígenes, los sueños de sus años mozos: Fotógrafo deportivo.

Y es que en 1983, Randy estudiaba para ser reportero gráfico y una vez retirado de las Grandes Ligas, re descubrió su pasión y lo que lo hace realmente FELIZ.

Desde hace tiempo es muy común ver llegar a Johnson a los estadios de la NFL para tomar sus fotografías y convivir con los periodistas, algunos de los cuales llegaron a narrar sus hazañas como lanzador y la de aquella inocente paloma que inexorablemente se atravezó en su camino.

Ahora que vemos a Randy Johnson como fotógrafo deportivo, les dejo esta célebre frase de Franklin Rooosevelt:

"La felicidad no está en la mera posesión de dinero; se encuentra en la alegría del logro, en la emoción del esfuerzo creativo".

Meet the newest member of The Fleet: 📷 Canon F-1 in Olive Drab. A relic, and only 3,000 ever made in this military edition. Who knows how many are left now, certainly not many in this condition ✨ Thanks Japan! 🇯🇵

I’m stocked up on Ilford HP5 Plus, Kodak 400TX, Ektar 100, Portra 160, Portra 400, and Fujifilm Velvia 50. Can’t wait to contrast and compare.

Picked up a scanner too- the Plustek 8200i. I’ll share some results once I figure it all out!

There’s something really satisfying about that CLICK!

I def don’t post enough cool pics like these from all of the awe-inspiring shoots I’ve been on. These are screenshots actually from my recent shoot in the Sand Dunes for Soundscape Collective- a truly amazing nonprofit project you should know more about to give musicians and producers a chance to create- away from it all. I’m so impressed by the music that comes out of this project. Video coming in the near future, so keep an eye out for that. And wow, love that 100-500mm on the RED. She’s a beauty. 🏜

When I was a kid, I had a poster of the on my wall that I think I got from - an annual highlight for us where we got to spend the $5 we convinced our parents to give us for whatever we wanted! This past weekend, Nova and I were lucky enough to catch them flying directly overhead, so we took the cameras and headed a 1/4 mile north to for the show! These pics don’t do it justice, but what a show! I heard it was the first time in 19 years. I hope they come back every year! These guys are insane. ✈️🤪

Please come out to join us for a day or two or all six. It’s going to be another bar-raising experience for Northern Colorado and you won’t want to miss it. 🖤

This past week, I was so busy filming, traveling, and planning the Totally Rad Music Fest that I didn’t get a chance to announce our third consecutive year of 🏆

Every year so far, we’ve managed to raise our own creative bar. We took our first Telly in 2019, a Silver for the Mental Health Matters campaign. Last year, we took SIX more Telly’s, including our first Gold for our mini doc about the ... And this year, we were honored with TWELVE more Telly’s for our work in various categories, including two more elusive Golden awards- one in Branding Content for our friends at and another for Corporate Image video content for our work with

We also earned several Silver and Bronze Telly’s this year for our work with series, a comedic piece we created with and , a short film we made with musician on his multimedia album project, and for our work with Ross Barrable’s public awareness campaign on Sound Gardens ( ).

Thank you to all of these amazing friends-slash-clients who gave me the trust and opportunity to work together on this awesome content, and congrats to you all as well. 🥳

And finally, a thank you to the for honoring our work once again to bring our grand total to 19 Telly’s! It’s nice to know our small little operation stacks up with the big boys. 🤙🏼🤙🏼

NoCO Custom Homes really does provide an exquisite experience for their clients. One of the best things about filmmaking is having the opportunity to meet people you might have otherwise never met. Dani and Jason, the owners, are such nice people and so talented in what they do creatively, and thorough in their process. Every home we’ve filmed has blown me away. If and when you’re ready to design your home, look no further. 💕

These have been fun! Here’s Episode 7!

Finally getting around to posting about last weekend, which was one of the best journeys we’ve ever embarked, for so many reasons. Many posts to come because there’s just so many amazing photos, thanks to and who matched our commitment to raising the bar with this music video for entitled “Rock My Baby” - the 1st single off their upcoming 2nd album “Hot to Trot.”

This post is a bit about the gear we used during the shoot. The music video was shot entirely on and using and lenses. Loved the ergonomics and the look was 👌🏼 We also rocked a for the majority of our shots with the Epic-W, and relegated the Komodo to locked down and tight space B-Came duties using the + FS6 system. Nothing but great stuff to say about all that gear.

Another game changer was the wireless focusing system and we set up all weekend. It really allowed us laser focus to dial it in on ... thanks to and for the hook up on the next level peripherals that make all the difference.

Also worth mentioning, the BTS video that shot the sh*t out of was all shoot with (35mm and 75mm) on the and I have to say I came away impressed by these little beasts. Def worth a look for mid range setups.

Everything looked so so good and I’m so very proud of my crew; each and everyone one of them killed it.

Here was this project’s crew:











And our incredible Cast:

Some awesome pix from last weekend’s shoot during the 53:14 music video experiment. Challenging to say the least but came away with some beautiful shots, and got a lot more intimate with my and the workflow. Love the next-to-zero lag when casting to the iPad to monitor the shot- came in handy so many times and looked a lot better than the on board screen. Also got a bit of time to play with the which we really enjoyed the look and feel of. Great collab with and and our deep dive afterward against the clock into ... looking forward to a similar setup with a lot more time to screw around! Thanks again also to for lending us a hand and some killer kit! Look at my beautiful daughter ❤️ Best talent ever 🥰 @ Loveland, Colorado
