Now grounded with an apartment lease, I’ve decided to make 2012 the year of the Micro Adventure. A new 3-4 day, low budget, close-to-home adventure each month in attempt to fight off my usual travel itch. To kick off the new year, I spent a three-day weekend at the Clemina Cabin in British Columbia’s Caribou [...]
It’s time for New Year’s resolutions and their evil abettor, New Year’s resolution blog posts. I’ve been guilty of it in the past, but I won’t be coerced into listing my five adventure photography resolutions again in 2012. Many of you might have noticed how little I’ve been online lately. Twice weekly blog posts, forgotten. [...]
Living In Jasper We’ve been in Jasper for a month. What a fantastic place to live. In fact, its so much fun having a huge array of mountain bike trails, climbing routes, and hikes just moments from my back door, it has been hard to get much work done. I’m starting to find the balance [...]
What Is Forest Green British Columbia isn’t Vancouver. It’s almost 1 million square kilometers of outdoor playground. It’s big, it’s beautiful, and it’s very green.
A Quad Ride to Caribou Northern British Columbia is a pretty special place.

The result: 9 caribou, 3 grizzly bears, 1 wolf, and countless mule deer. And this wasn’t at [...]
The Shortest Summer Ever Arriving back in Canada in early September means we have a few weeks of summer-like weather before winter hits. We’ve been taking advantage with daily rides. Sometimes its on the touring bikes and sometimes its on mountain bikes. Riding off road has been a pleasure as I’ve been tied to the [...]

His portfolio shows off his specialty – mountain bike photography – well enough that Mattias Fredriksson recently invited Kristoffer to participate in the Scandinavian Photo Challenge. Although his team placed 5th, Kristoffer took home awards for Best Scenic Action, Best Close-up Action, and All Mountain. (check [...]
Craft and Vision released their latest eBook, Making Light, An Introduction to Off-Camera Flash by Piet Van Den Eynde, this morning. It’s their best eBook yet and, even better news, the first of a lighting tutorial series. This introduction ruins the myth that off-camera flash requires Joe McNally levels of equipment and shows us just [...]
After the 2011 Foundry Photojournalism Workshop in Buenos Aires, I took a week off. I barely looked at my email and I didn’t do any work. Instead, I went to Uruguay, walked around Buenos Aires, and visited family & friends. Unfortunately, that all adds up to a missing interview. Fortunately, I met lots of great [...]
Fresh off a month in Pakistan, Krystle Wright took time away from the camera to answer my interview. She admits it isn’t easy to find the right words; its her images that normally speak for her. They do a good job too; she’s recently grabbed third in NPPA’s Sports Feature awards and landed on ESPN’s [...]
