I saw this photo pop-up on ballistyxskate’s Instagram feed the other day. I shot that photo! Very cool to know it is printed out on a shop wall almost life-size. This was one of my earliest and most high- pressure shoots (April 11th, 2018). I was fairly new to flash photography. Shooting indoors on a poorly lit ramp was definitely a challenge at the time. I got the shot, but seeing the setting I used now makes me cringe. I am very thankful for RAW files. The image was also printed in the July, 2018 issue of Thrasher Magazine and used for multiple web and social media assets. Below is the Full images used for the campaign.
