My name is -Pod- and I have been skateboarding since 1985 and shooting photography since 1993. A die hard skater originally from the hot Arizona desert, I currently reside in beautiful Portland, Oregon. Since my move to the great North West 10 years ago, i've continued riding my skateboard and expanding my creativity in photography. While shooting skateboarding is one of my favorite subjects to capture, I equally enjoy shooting musical talents, random people, and other interesting places and things. My resume of "neat" accomplishments is forever growing and i'm proud to say that some of my accomplishments include published photography in: Thrasher Magazine, LOWCARD skate zine, Popular Photography Magazine, JIVARO Wheels, SLAM magazine (Australia), Pink Crack skate zine, JUICE magazine, random newspapers, and a slew of different websites. In addition to these I also currently own and publish a skateboard zine entitled "SAUCE skateboard zine"
