I covered the DC HIT & RUN EVENT in Whistler at the end of March in a very foggy day. Here's how she went:
March 28,2016
The final stop of the DC Hit & Run went down at Whistler Blackcomb last weekend. The course was steep with deep smooth bowl turns that had the 80+ competitors more managing their speed more than milking for speed. Rider’s ultimate goal was to get down the course as fast as they can while being judged on their style and trickery on the three placed features (40ft jump, rail section, and a mandatory 2 hit pipe run) where riders earned valuable points for time deductions.
Back in September I shot a fantastic and unique wedding for Kate and Callum MacLeod. They set up in their very own backyard which was overlooked by Pemberton's Mount Currie. It was the perfect backdrop for this wedding. Throughout the space you would see pops of color everywhere which was Kate's vision. She wanted a rainbow of color on everything from the bridesmaids dresses to lanterns above the tables. It was a great wedding for this wonderfully unique couple.
In partnership with Conscious Minds, I was tasked to shoot and creative direct Nike Running's Spring 2016 digital assets. This shoot was done in New York City. The following are some of the photos released on Nike's Instagram account last February. You may follow them @nikerunning

The world record was previously held by Peter Olenick of Carbondale, CO; Olenick set a record of 7.58 meters (24 ft, 11 in) on January 31, 2010, during the first-ever X Games High Air contest in Aspen, CO.
Read MoreHere are some photos from a shoot I did last March with the Giro half-pipe team in Tignes, France. Simon won the X Games that year and redid his winning run, still drunk from the night before, so the cinematographer could get the shoot. It was quite honestly flawless and he was really run. So classic. Simon is such a creative and humble dude. Happy to see him land some pages in this magazine.

Read MoreMy best friend Robin van Gyn and I went on an amazing European trip last February 2015. We spent weeks exploring the beautiful mountains of Italy, Austria, France, and Switzerland. Robin is such a hard working athlete and is so knowledgeable in the back country. Roxy licensed these images below and used them in everything, from catalogs to billboards in Disneyland.
