I recently organized an event called the Ski Salt Lake Shootout as part of my full-time job with Ski Salt Lake. In a nutshell–we flew 5 pro photogs out to Salt Lake for a 5-day photo competition in the Cottonwood Canyons. We also used used two local up-and-comers to participate from the Wasatch Front as well. It was an awesome week ,with a mixed bag of shooting conditions. Some days were epic–some were difficult. All in all, it was an awesome event that yielded some amazing images. In the end, the photographers and athletes worked like crazy to produce unique and inspiring imagery. I was pretty slammed the whole week, but did manage to tag along with some of the photogs, document the action and even snap a couple of my own.
