When Atomic approached me with a need to capture their new Bent Chetler artistic planks both in studio and on location, I was giddy. I worked at my favorite place on earth, Crested Butte, to create some fluffy images of a powder day with the iconic free ride skis. Next came a studio shoot, remember I said I get obsessive with those? Shooting Bent’s legendary art forced me to think about color in new ways and push the limit of my current studio knowledge. I’m stoked with the result.
