Trevor Colden best of 2015


Only knowing Trevor for maybe a little more than a year, we have been working on a lot of projects and put in some hours skating in and around downtown los angeles. I landed my first cover of The Skateboard Mag with him in his pro interview. He helped me shoot my 2nd cover article "A day in skateboarding" Where we skated for almost 24 straight hours around downtown Los Angeles, only pushing and taking the Metro around the city and we also got one of there 6 covers from The Berrics "PUSH" issue of TSM. Very happy with what we have accomplished in this year! Cant wait for 2016!

Victor Garibay best of 2015

Its Garibay's birthday today. We both tattoo'd each other names on one another leg and this is the least I can do for him. So heres my fav photos we've shot this year. Garibay is one of my favorite people to shoot with because both our tempers flare when we are out skating. I push him and he pushes me to shoot in unfamiliar places and ways. Have a good one dude!
