Charles and me, Superpark 9 in 05'

I found this old photo of my brother Charles and I, in banff at superpark 9 in 05' i think. That day Charles got the cover of the superpark issue, for Snowboarder magazine. The photo was shot on that quarter pipe in the background. So many good memories! we need to shred more often man..

shitty

first day of shooting rails in calgary, i set my elinchrom head on a sketchy little hill and of course the wind blew and it fell down. the tube got smashed so i replaced it in our hotel room. 300$ for that little piece of glass?!?!?!

WATAIN live in vancouver 11/14/2010

Went to see Watain play at the Rickshaw last week, here's some photos:

Two Snowboarder Covers, Shot the same day

 So yeah I guess I got pretty lucky on that one. here's two covers I shot this past winter, and the one with Nicolas just came out now. the two photos were shot the same day, on the same run actually. One of the most productive run of my winter id say! here's Nico and Bode killing it, better watch theyre part in the new Absynthe Movie "NOW/HERE"

Nicolas Muller, fs 360. huge. that one was a bitch to get the right angle. Usually when im shooting in Alaska i just get dropped off where ever the riders are going instead of getting the angle from across the valley. thats too far anyways, and i get to ride sweet shit too. for that one i had to hike down the steepest face ever with my snowshoes. I was kinda worried i would not be able to hike back up. fortunately i was able to pack a bunch of little stairs and made my way back up to go shoot Bode's jump. Oh and Nico landed this first try, obviously.

Bode Merrill, big ol pillow launcher. as opposed to the other  one, that one was easy.. i just rode down to it and setup in a minute. Its good to have it easy sometimes i guess.. one of my favorite photos of my winter.

David Aubry - Japan in whistler, super sick quarter pipe session 

Guillaume brochu - Boardslide - Quebec. Guillaume was so hungry back then, that kink rail is so gnarly

Guillaume Brochu - Lipslide - Quebec. super shitty framing and there's my sketchy flash in the photo haha! Guillaume was the first to lipslide the red ledge. mad props

Etienne Gilbert - Frontboard - Quebec. gnarly and legit

Etienne Gilbert - Frontboard - Quebec. I cant remember in what movie that video shot went, (triumph or clockwork?) but this was one of the sickest frontboard done on a kink rail at the time. Solo session, only etienne and me. its funny cause he did it so many times, I shot a sequence, a couple stills and I also filmed the video shot!

Kris Wilson - method - Whistler. gnarly double line on some sketchy ice face..

Mike Page - half cab - Whistler. flawless style, amazing snowboarder. I wish you were still around man

A couple morphed sequences.

A couple sequences from 2003-2004:

Mat Beardmore switch bs720 in Whistler, its a shame the original slides were sent to a company and they lost it... so this low-res scan is all i have left

Matt Beardmore, such a sick cab 900

Benji Ritchie bs 540 the perfect jump!

Gaetan Chanut backside 180 in Whistler

Chad Otterstrom - 2003

Etienne Tremblay back in 2003

So i was looking through my old stuff and I found a bunch of old scans from 2003 onwards.

Im gonna start posting all those shots just for the hell of it. Starting with Etienne Tremblay, one of my all time favorite out of Quebec. Do you homework, look him up.

Here's 5 shots, all medium format:
