Flashy flash flash-o-rama! To date, this was one of the most fun “experimental” shoots I have ever done. Fox does it right when it comes to having and idea and sticking with it.

They are very specific with what they are looking for in the shots, and if you don’t deliver, you better have a damn good answer why not. It’s nerve-racking at times, but it challenges me to go above and beyond my comfort zone when shooting photos.

I shot three riders that night and all three of their images had to have a certain “flashy” feel to them. Adam E, Danny Harf, and Rusty Malinoski were my subjects (not a bad way to get good photos, that’s for sure).

The weather that night sucked. Storms were threatening, the water was choppy and we only had about an hour left of “sun” light. Adam is one of those riders who doesn’t fall very much and the tricks he does do are pimp.

We ran along side in the chase boat up and down the shorline, literally one time. I saw something I liked, told him to repeat the trick a few times, and then he moved on to some other moves.

We got a handful of shots just from that really quick set. Thanks Rusty for holding that extra flash for me. Now you know how my forearms feel.
