The month of February was spent at the Winter Olympic Games, in Whistler B.C. I was assigned to cover the Olympic Park Venue shooting both Cross Country and Biathlon events.

So exciting, so cool! What an awesome opportunity! The nordic events were some of the best for us. I bet you’re happy to be back home with your family – Reese must seem like a totally different kid! Hope to see you soon, I want to hear stories!!
Great to see you in action. Amazing crisp photos of the event! Fun to see you here and there while you’re up North!
Great pics honey! I love the man from Germany.
