Climbing the Dragon

It's been a busy few weeks here in Mumbai. I've been working to get all of the photos from Ladakh edited while trying to get some other things accomplished. I shot a project for a magazine on friday that I will hopefully post soon (I'll probably have to wait until its been published next month). Anyway, here are a few more shots I did in Ladakh.

After the rest of the group took off I was free to explore on my own. I took to the hills on a motorcycle for a few days then came back and stayed with my friend Vaibhav, who owns a rock climbing café (a small café with a bouldering area). On Sunday we went out to a boulder project he has been developing above the city of Leh. It's a beautiful boulder, isolated by its size from the rocky landscape, located near a religious temple. The boulder promises a few short sport routes and several bouldering problems. Vaibhav is projecting this little beauty.






This is GraviT, Vaibhav's cafe in Leh. If you ever go to Ladakh, you have to stop in here. It's a great place for a banana shake.

I've worked all over her globe with a diverse set of clients that offer a diverse set of challenges; every one of them a learning opportunity. Whether I'm hanging off a frozen waterfall shooting ice climbing or in a studio working with a model I am adapting, learning, and improving. I've created a mobile studio in the middle of a wild adventure race in southern Patagonia and fought with monkeys to keep my grapes in southern India. Whatever the challenge I will get the shot.

With my photography background firmly formed in the commercial advertising arena, I bring that attention to detail and technical process to adventure photography. And I've spent my entire life adventuring, so I can get any angle you can imagine.

I feel very fortunate to live in such a beautiful place as Boulder, CO. When I'm not shooting for clients I'm out climbing rocks or frozen waterfalls, or cruising down in the backcountry on my skis.
