Yet another skateboarding photoshoot

Further to my time with Jasmyn in previous post, I had to give some blog-space to this un-named skater in NYC. Skating has become synonymous with cliché in lifestyle photography. Photographers are naturally drawn to the culture because it is interesting, there's movement, sport, action, danger, edge, sub-cultures, fashion and trends... but it quickly becomes over-shot and finding your own angle - especially as an advertising and commercial photographer - is difficult. So it's a risk posting more of this, but to be honest - I just love the image. I'm stating it here first - there's still a place for skaters in front of my camera! I'm ready for the world to disagree.
