I have *lots* to share here, it’s been a few years and I have reached my 400th post!!!

First some photos from the sculpture park which I went to with my sister Kim a week ago:

The second bit of news is that I have started editing a short climbing film that I shot last October in Bishop, California.

It’s really a *very* rough draft but you can see the direction I want to head with it. I don’t want to make a typical climbing film with lots of music and just cranking on moves…

…instead want to focus on what it must be like to be a super athlete day in and day out, managing both a climbing career as well as friends and relationships.

This film is about Lisa Rands and her amazing life in Bishop California….

Of course the final edit will probably be completely different than this edit, but I could only get this far before I found out that I’m….

That’s right, I’m off to New Orleans for 14 days as an assistant on a documentary film called “Independent America: Rising from Ruins.”

I will be helping to film, gather model releases and shoot stills alongside fellow assistant Jon Liston as we help the director Hanson Hosein shoot the sequel to his award winning documentary “Independent America.”

I am soooo excited about this. I want to make documentaries too and this is an amazing opportunity to see how it’s done from start to finish.

I also hope to shoot enough in New Orleans and on the road trip down there to create a series for my portfolio. We shall see.

See you all in April. I will try to blog from the road!
