Behind the Scenes IV: Yosemite Rigging & Hardware
One of the biggest topics I got comments and emails about concerning Yosemite Behind the Scenes was the rigging involved on a shoot like this. I wish I could say it was more elaborate than it was, but really its no different than shooting on a 30’ cliff you could find anywhere… everything is just [...]
Behind the Scenes: Yosemite III
We’re all back down on the ground, safe and sound after shooting for three full days up on El Capitan. I’m exhausted, but am looking forward to answering some of the behind the scenes questions about the shoot ASAP. For now, check out this shot from about 1500′ off the ground, and imagine the incredible [...]
Behind the Scenes: Yosemite Camera Gear
I’d just finished up packing my camera gear for the Yosemite shoot when I realized, “oh crap I didn’t take any pictures of what I was bringing”… so I quickly unpacked it all and snapped these shots.

Product Design: F-Stop Bags
A couple years ago a friend and colleague approached me about helping design a new line of camera bags. His goal was to produce bags that catered towards the needs of the outdoor, action, and youth photographers that had been coming onto the scene and needing more from their bags than what the current crop [...]
Jungle Marathon Part II: Nikki Kimball
Here’s part II of the Jungla Marathon Series. This piece focuses on a racer that can’t make it to the finish and Nikki Kimball who gives some pro tips for keeping your feet happy. Pretty cool stuff. Shot with the 5d and HPX and again a bit of some TNF product focus. Psyched to hear [...]
Big into Fashion
I’ve been doing a lot of photo and video work that is outside the hardcore ‘outdoor’ world over the past year. Some of it is just now starting to show up in stores and magazines. The first is a cover story of Dawn and Relentless for The Fashion Journal. I love TFJ because its real [...]
Jungle Marathon with Mike Wolfe
Mike Wolfe is just another all-around badass from Bozeman Montana. Something about that area breeds people that just crush in the mountains, no matter what the sport. Mike is a lawyer, climber, skier, and most notably a North Face Endurance Athlete; he’s also one of the three runners we had the great opportunity of working [...]
Picking Off the Leaches
If a picture is worth a thousand words, how many for a video? Here’s the first from Brasil… sitting in the airport waiting for out flight to Sao Paulo.
Totally Off the Grid?
I’m currently in the Delta Sky Club in JFK, drinking to hopefully induce sleep for the rest (majority) of the 42 hour travel binge to the jungle of Northern Brasil. I’m traveling with local SLC Videog Hennie VJ and we’ll be shooting pics and vid of some… ‘endurance’ athletes. More to come, but most importantly [...]
Another Mallorca Psicobloc Movie
Here’s another short from Mallorca. All 5d and GH1 footage, Cedar Wright did the edit and he’s using Magic Bullet Looks quite a bit for these shorts.
Digging Out
I’m digging out from shooting in Europe and getting ready to leave for Brazil on Monday. I’m sure many of you have seen this, but its still hilarious… and not that far from the truth.
More Mallorca
Here’s a quick vid from Mallorca. This shoot is another North Face project, focused almost entirely on video. The first part are live ‘dispatches’ from the field (edited by the athletes) that we are posting on facebook and other social media platforms and the second are more polished web videos for their main site (edited [...]
The Crib – Mallorca
‘I know you think I fell off, but I never really left’
We just got down from a week in the mountains shooting a tag team effort for RedBull Europe and The North Face, with Iker and Eneko Pou. It was an incredible week long shoot, high in the mountains (no internet=no blog updates) and the [...]
Headed to the Mountains: Back online a Week
At the airport in Geneva, waiting for my flight to Spain. Headed to do some work at this place (any guesses?) for a week. tk
Alex Honnold – Tuolumne
More of the material we shot with Alex Honnold in the end of June (all with the 5d for the tech nerds):
What To Do With Those Dang Videos
As you might know, I’ve been shooting a ton of video lately for clients. It seems like everyone wants — no needs — more content for their websites. But what if you are company that also has a physical retail presence. How can they incorporate these videos and still images into a better in store [...]

HEAVY BAGS #5 WHEN KEEPIN’ IT REAL GOES WELL
Experience-Based Commercial Photography.
Would you like a microwave burrito served to you ready to eat? Or would you prefer being tossed a slab of fresh beef, a head of lettuce, tortillas, and a block of fine cheese? I pose [...]
New Site
Just got out of the woods of Maine and had the link to the new Gregory site in my inbox. Check out the big images from the shoot we did earlier this spring here.
Brad Pitt Look Alike?
I love cars and I love the mountains… does it get any better than this? All things considered, the videography is pretty top notch, think about all of the angles and production that went into this piece. Top notch for sure. I’m also a fan of the color work too.
Money Burning a Hole in your Pocket?
Prana, one of the clients I’ve worked with a lot over the years has a screaming deal on all of their product line this week. . Check it out.
Tickets to the Gun Show
What better way to end the summer then with a little adventure?! Pat ‘Patty Cakes’ the intern/assistant/janitor/ladies man and I just booked our tickets to shoot the Ultra Trail Du Mont Blanc with The North Face. Its the biggest ultra marathon in the world; the town of Chamonix, France pretty much shuts down for the [...]
HEAVY BAGS #4
IT’S ALIVE! WORKING/SHOOTING A LIVE EVENT
by: Pat Bagley (this is Pat’s 4th installment from his summer internship)
The Mammut Bouldering Championship raged for hours, building to this one five minute event. Hundreds of spectators draw silent as the lights fade and the PA hushes. Daniel Woods emerges from the crowd, slapping chalk between his hands. An [...]
