The Haps

Since my last update I've been here, there, and back again. I've been spending a lot of time lately in Moab, working with Keith Ladzinski on a 5 part video series on Steph Davis and Mario Richard. Days consist of jugging 400 foot towers every morning, setting up cameras and tripods on tiny perches high in the Fisher Towers, only to get 5 seconds of footage as they jump safely off the towers. Pretty sick. Really hard work.


Following this year's Outdoor Retail Tradeshow in Salt Lake City, where I spend a few days twice a year reconnecting with clients and sharing in the energy of the industries biggest and best, I connected with a musician hero of mine, Cahalen Morrison. As a folk musician myself, I've been drawn to Cahalen's style of writing and playing for the last year. Earlier this year, he joined up with another force in the Seattle music community, Eli West, and hit the road for a 10 show Colorado tour. Filmmaker, Scott Neel, and I joined the fellas on the road to film a short documentary on them. More on this when we finish the editing. The one thing I love best about my job is when it affords me time to labor over my love of music and musicians.


From here, I wait by the fire till the snow melts. I have a fashion shoot next weekend, followed by a few more weeks in Moab, a March month in Las Vegas, NV, and a busy April on the Frontrange.

Fleeting like the days - Andy
