Tahoe Vibes for Oboz Sandals

May 30, 2019 by HagePhoto

Bozeman-based footwear brand Oboz (slang for outside in Bozeman) contacted us last year to discuss a series of projects to showcase new additions to their product line-up. The small outdoor brand had partnered with nation-wide retailer REI to feature a few of their boot, shoe and sandal models exclusively. Understandably they wanted fresh new media […]

Summer Sojourn in the Trinity Alps

August 9, 2017 by HagePhoto

Usually we know we’re in trouble when it’s 80-degrees at the trailhead. But that’s considered a cool summer day in the Klamath Mountains of Northern California. Back at our Airstream on Trinity Lake it was nearly 100-degrees already. So we shouldered out packs, one carrying Dusty, and hit the trail. No swimming hole would be […]

The Wonderland Connection

June 24, 2017 by HagePhoto

My first visit to Joshua Tree National Park 15 years ago nearly ended in that kind of tragedy. A buddy and I were down from Anchorage, Alaska to climb granite splitters in the desert sun. After a week of constant climbing, we needed to give our destroyed hands a break. A day hike through the […]

Badwater to Telescope Peak in Death Valley

May 6, 2017 by HagePhoto

The four of us piled out of the SUV for another predawn start in a pull-off on the side of the road. Shoes were tightened, trekking poles extended and packs were hefted (heavier than I had expected) as we prepared to walk out onto the flats. Not just any flats. These were the famed salt […]

Endless Summer in So Cal for La Sportiva

February 26, 2017 by HagePhoto

It’s not uncommon when working for top outdoor brands to be shooting out of season. Production schedules must line up with availability of prototypes and lead time to get assets into pre-season advertising. Such was the case on a campaign we shot for Italian footwear brand La Sportiva this winter. They needed fresh work showcasing […]

Sweet Sixteen: Favorite Projects from 2016

January 5, 2017 by HagePhoto

Happy New Year! 2016 stands out with some unique differences from past years at HagePhoto. Many of our projects now include a video component as a matter of course. Some of our work was commissioned strictly for social media campaigns instead of traditional advertising. And with the birth of our son (!!!) we decided to operate […]

Alpine Climbing for CAMP USA

August 10, 2016 by HagePhoto

It would be easy to wager that alpinist Nate Smith spends more time in the air than most airline pilots. Correspondence with the SLC-based climber always reveals a travel itinerary that borders on insanity. Wrapping up on the east coast, a day back in SLC to repack and then to Peru for two weeks. “Hey […]

A Week on California’s Big Sur Coast

May 16, 2016 by HagePhoto

We recently found ourselves in California with a week to kill. With our last meeting in LA and our next photo shoot in Northern CA, we decided to take the slow road along the coast. Not that you can really go fast once you commit to Hwy 1. We pulled into Plaskett Creek Campground, found a […]

Ultralight Backpacking for MontBell

November 12, 2014 by HagePhoto

We were fortunate to enjoy a stint of work in the Sierra Nevada Mountains of California this fall. One of the projects we shot was a backpacking trek for MontBell. The Japanese apparel and equipment brand specializes in super lightweight gear and it’s always a treat to get out in the field with their latest […]

Alpine Diving in the Sierra Nevada

August 20, 2013 by HagePhoto

Swimming and diving the alpine lakes remains an all time highlight of our 200-mile traverse across the Sierra Nevada last fall. There are literally thousands of these precious gems along the high route, each twinkling in the ever present sunshine. Our crew adopted the practice of the daily swim right from the start. This usually […]
