The aptly named, Black-Necked Stilt


 

Having the US Cyclocross Nationals in the Pacific Northwest was just perfect this year.

Proof that cyclocross in America is continuing to grow.


 

Race days are upon us.


 

Taking the lead up a climbing route is not for the faint of heart; specifically when your talking about the face of the Grand Teton.

Here at Austin Vivid Photography, we love the adventurous and though we personally won’t be the lead climber we are more than happy to take the lead in any of your photography needs.

Please don’t hesitate to contact us so we can be there to capture you going to new heights, with our sweaty palms and all!


 

The funny thing about photographers is we are typically the first to run out in a passing rain shower and exclaim “oh man this weather is great!”.

For this view we hiked down to the beach in a pretty heavy rainstorm in hopes it would let up sometime soon.  Then 45 minutes after arriving, the rain let up and offered this beautiful view.


 

Adventure snacks.  Don’t leave home (or the tent) without them.


 

Anytime you’re feeling a bit sendy, give us a call.  We’ll be there.

This is a bit of a throw back to about 5 years ago, capturing this amateur/pro rider smash down the mountain.  Now that we have a downhill getting ready to open up here in Texas, I’m itching to get back out there and see what we can come up with behind the lens as well as behind the bars!  If you’re thinking about heading out there don’t hesitate to reach out to see what we can get into.


 

There’s not much more exhilarating than a high-speed chase to the finish line when you’re often inches from the wheel in front of you.

Our job in a nutshell:

Following you follow your passion.

I must admit, it’s not a bad gig at all.


 

If you’re looking to get a headshot, look no further.  No matter the purpose for the headshot we are here to help.  We’re happy to help get the image you are looking for.

It’s a simple process that just starts by you contacting us and letting us know what you’re looking for.  After that, together we’ll come up with a game plan with a location along with a date and time that works best for you.

 


 

Out for an adventure this summer?  We’d love to tag along and capture your experience through photographs.  Wether is for commercial purposes or your own personal documentation we’d be honored to be the flies on the wall (or in the sand)!

Feel free to reach out anytime and we’ll be happy to let you know how we can help you out with some photography; it’s what we do.


 

It seems as though 2017 is shaping up to be the year of women getting after it outdoors.  We are huge fans of that over here at Austin Vivid Photography!  As a matter of fact if you are planning a trip big or small you should consider having it documented through photography.  You can sit back and enjoy the adventure and in the end will come out will some stellar images to help tell your story.

Whether you’re going solo or with your crew, if your taking on an epic camping adventure or even just a hike in your local trails, Sally and I would love to capture it all.  Feel free to reach out to us and see how we can help.

Cyclocross season is back and we couldn’t be happier to be back out there!

It’s always fun to set the shutter really fast to freeze water or to slow the shutter down to give it the nice fluid motion feel.

Here I decided to slow it down quite a bit to try and show the power of the flowing water while the kayaker surfed the swell on this river rapid.  I’m pleased with  the calm and contrasting energy that this captured.

But to say that the race is the metaphor for the life is to miss the point. The race is everything. It obliterates whatever isn’t racing. Life is the metaphor for the race.

I would be super stoked if I could get some votes on this photo for a contest based on, well pretty much how many votes you can get. I would win a sweet photography trip. And then hopefully take even more photos of…you guessed it, folks on bikes! Please vote for this photo and share on your page. Thanks!

Here’s where you VOTE.

I wanted to share this photograph, not because it’s a good photo (in fact there are a handful of things I could have done to improve it) but because it reminds me of a time and place where I captured it.  It reminds me of being in the cramped back of a hotel in Jackson Hole while hanging with an amazing North Face photographer, Lucas Gilman, an inspirational photo editor for the National Geographic, Sadie Quarrier and a bunch of rad photographers that became friends.  We were all going on way too little sleep, working our butts off and loving every minute of it.

It’s funny the way photos do that.  They can take you back to a moment in an instant.
