Max Geronzi and I worked on shooting an interview for the French magazine Sugar during his stay in Philadelphia last summer. Looks like they hooked us up with a cover! Psyched. More photos when I get my hands on a copy and find out what they used. Special thanks to Charley for making it happen.

Below is a behind the scenes photo of Tina’s work station at Location 05 for a Catherine’s catalogue shoot. He’s awesome to work with, always making shoots entertaining… His makeup collection gives Snookie a run for her money.

Here’s a photo Pat and I shot over the summer. Unfortunately, before we were able to go back for a land the temporary handicap ramp was torn down…

DK is Daniel Kim

DK came through for a slumber party/skate weekend last month. We got a few things, hopefully more soon for a feature of some sort. According to him he’s on a “killing spree…”

We’ll see about that. Below is Daniel measuring his wingspan with a quick ollie up, ollie in Philly.

Gavin MacMahon Nolan – frontside 180 to switch crook.

•November 23, 2010 • Leave a Comment

This was meant to be in the next issue of Focus, but due to a mix-up and me scanning before getting a last roll developed – the wrong frame appeared in the one that just came out. Regardless I’m hyped that we were able to print a photo of Gavin, and it’s such a gnarly trick for the spot… Just wish people saw this one instead.

Hopefully we’ll shoot some more over Turkey Day weekend – happy holidays!
