Getting Scrambly in the Southwest for La Sportiva

November 11, 2016 by HagePhoto

Earlier this year we got together with the Italian footwear specialist La Sportiva for a week-long shoot in the desert southwest. Our mission was to produce high calibre hiking and backpacking work that would stand side-by-side with the brands’ already outstanding climbing photography. This can be a real challenge as climbing and skiing imagery inspire on […]

Winter Backpacking for REI

August 25, 2016 by HagePhoto

Getting the opportunity to check out the latest offerings from equipment brands is definitely a perk of our job. We started out this year shooting a new line of backpacks from Osprey for REI’s online content, the Aether 70 and women’s Ariel 65. The job came to us right after the new year and needed […]

Offbeat Side of Zion for Gregory Packs

April 26, 2016 by HagePhoto

Sometimes it pays to listen to the kid working at the outdoor shop. We had stopped in to grab a map of the greater area around Zion National Park in Southern Utah. “You should check out The Barracks,” he offered up casually while swiping my card. “It’s as spectacular as the narrows, but not as […]

Favorite Moments of 2015

December 31, 2015 by HagePhoto

We’re truly fortunate to live this life. Sure, it’s a lot of work to run your own production business. But when we look back at what we’ve accomplished last year and where we’ve been, it’s hard to hold a grudge against all those 16 hour days and endless stream of airports. It was tough to […]

Waiting for Kokopelli

May 8, 2015 by HagePhoto

About this time last spring, we were all sitting in a friend’s living room in Grand Junction, Colorado, staring incredulously at the evening weather round up. The national weather service had been tracking a storm front moving across the country from the Pacific. It would arrive on Western Slope in two days and a series […]

Insights from an Adventure Intern

April 26, 2015 by HagePhoto

Two months ago I started an internship with HagePhoto to learn what it takes to turn a passion for photography into a profession. Initially, I didn’t really believe it was possible to sustain a reasonable living as a photographer–at least not in the adventure niche. Shooting for big name companies like Black Diamond, Mountain Hardwear, […]

Turtlehead Peak for Backpacker

October 10, 2014 by HagePhoto

The best photo requests are those that force you to explore something new or out of your ordinary routine. While shooting a day hike for Backpacker Magazine wouldn’t qualify as out of the ordinary for us, hiking the tourist trail to the top of the most popular peak outside Las Vegas definitely did. We were enjoying a […]

Story Behind the Shot: Natural Arch Selfie in Sedona

July 31, 2014 by HagePhoto

A couple years ago we were enjoying spring in Sedona, mainly to climb sandstone towers and ride the stellar single track. But we were also shooting a new line of multi sport hydration packs for Platypus Hydration. On ‘rest’ days from the bike and rock, we fit in a handful of day hikes to produce […]

Story Behind the Shot: Flight Time in Fruita

May 11, 2014 by HagePhoto

We recently had to wait out some inclement weather before starting our four-day mountain bike ride of the famed Kokopelli’s Trail between Grand Junction, CO and Moab, UT. This actually turned into a great opportunity to check out local trail networks new to us and return to some of our favorite. Take a day to […]

Photo Set: Moab Slickrock & Singletrack

May 5, 2014 by HagePhoto

We wrapped up last fall with a mountain bike shoot in the sandstone riding mecca of Moab, Utah. The project was to produce some new work for a new line of women’s bike packs from Platypus Hydration. The spectacular singletrack and technical slick rock the perfect (super fun!) venue. We’ll be heading back to Moab […]
