Badfish Roller Derby - summer 2019

Had the pleasure of working with the lovely ladies of Badfish Roller Derby out of Long Beach, CA. It was great to watch their skill and finesse mixed with some raw aggression and competitiveness that it takes to be successful on the arena. Thank you very much to the team and coaches for allowing me to jump out there and photograph (and not get smashed). I’m looking forward to their next bout. Rock n’ roll girls.

Dew Tour LBC - June 2019

Wow. Only 3 years since my last blog? Guess you can tell I’m not a millennial or an active blogger (which I am working on - I promise). Aside from that, here are a few grabs from the Dew Tour 2019 in Long Beach, CA this June. I wasn’t able to get a media pass but still wanted to shoot and watch some killer skating so I grabbed a camera and my 50mm and got as close as I could without irritating security (almost). Good practice to shoot with limited gear and access. Hats off to the skaters for doing what they do and going big. Great to watch true professionals in action and see the community come out to support skateboarding. Thank you to the skaters and sponsors for putting the event on! And yes, I am going to start posting more. Thanks for looking.
