The day before flying back to Los Angeles, my sister Lindy and I went snowboarding. Lindy used to ski and wanted to learn how to snowboard- and I always want to snowboard. So we enjoyed the best snowboarding in Ohio at Boston Mills. Yes, Ohio does have ski resorts. I wouldn’t really call them “resorts”...
Yearly Archives: 2008
Because no marker is really permanent.
Christmas time for me means heading back to Ohio and Pennsylvania to visit family. It also means getting to visit my old room and see my stuff that didn’t make the trip to California with me. The calendar above is from my days at Enterprise Rent-A-Car. After graduating in May 2006, I got a position...

Band From TV CD/DVD
Band From TV‘s CD/DVD combo Hoggin’ All The Covers is out and available at Amazon. This past year, I had the opportunity to photograph the band and they are awesome. You might also catch me in the crowd during the DVD during the live studio performance. Support them and the charities they are donating the profits...
2009 Reading List
After flying back from Miami and reading Sylvia Plath’s The Bell Jar I decided to order a few books that have had my attention for a while. I present my prospective 2009 reading list: Snuff, by Chuck Palahniuk Salmonella Men on Planet Porno: Stories, by Yasutaka Tsutsui Less Than Zero, by Bret Easton Ellis Glamorama, by...
Thursday, Friday, Miami
Thursday night started with a trip out to Adams’ Go Kart Track for the Thursday night drift session. Thanks to Pat Mordaunt for letting me snag a ride out there with him! Here is Pat’s S14, outside of BOSO Garage in Gardena, California. Ross and Frank do excellent work and I’m excited to see their...
Metallica, Sorry for Napster
Lasers light up the LA Forum and the stage as Metallica starts their 1.5 hour+ set. When Napster was still around, I used it to download music. Metallica was one of those bands. At that point, every high school garage rock band was playing Enter Sandman and For Whom the Bells Toll at the talent...
KLKTIV Shorts: Bee Patient
Bee Patient from Will Roegge on Vimeo. KLKTIV (collective) is a directors and artist group that is the result of friends who enjoy making creative projects together. This project was an idea of Matt Oates. I think it turned out solid and I always dig working with Matt, Brent, and Mike. Stay up for more...
ASB V on board with Pat
ASB V- On Board with Patrick Mordaunt from Will Roegge on Vimeo. At All Star Bash V, I tried out mounting a POV camera to Pat’s front tow hook. This edit is a few of those shots. Watch as Patrick Mordaunt gets a nasty close up of an S13′s rear wheel! Killin’ it.
Its a wonder I get anything done
Its skies like this that keep me here + keep me distracted. Monday evening on my balcony.
Tell me the story of how you ended up here…
10 minutes outside of California the drift kicked in. You wouldn’t be able to tell from this photograph but this weekend I got to kick it at my first Vegas Drift event. Nick and the guys from Vegas Drift held their first event at the Buffalo Bill Casino in Primm, NV. Joey Redmond and I...
Thursday with Will
Thanks Dax for the title. Since I’ve got a little bit of time on my hands, between jobs, I’m going to document the day to day. Thursday, my schedule looked like it would allow for some rolling @ el segundo skatepark, a ride on the fixed gear, and a trip to the art supplies store...
Tuesday Life
Mi casa su casa. So I’ve always wanted to document a day in my life with photography. Why not a random Tuesday in December? Sure. Only problem, you only get the boring stuff. Didn’t take my camera to the skate park when I was rollerblading or when I went surfing. There is hipster laundry mat...
ATL2LA: The Video
ATL2LA from Will Roegge on Vimeo. If you have been reading my blog in the past week you have undoubtedly seen the sweet photography of Joey Redmond in my ATL2LA posts. Now its my turn to show what I was doing during the road trip. Shooting HD video. I was able to record time-lapses of driving through...
VOW – Wingsuit base Jumping
wingsuit base jumping from doubleA on Vimeo. This video caught my attention because my good friends the Adams are aeronautic enthusiasts. Nate owns a wingsuit and has a ton of sky diving jumps under his belt. This clip has been re-used and I’ve seen the road scene on YouTube as an individual clip. The opener...
ATL2LA: New Mexico to Arizona
After spending the longest amount of time in a single location, Roswell, New Mexico, we jumped into the G and headed for Arizona. Spots ahead of us included: White Sands Missile Range, Alamogordo, Tuscon, and the open desolate roads of south-western New Mexico. (Photos by Joey Redmond)
ATL2LA: Texas to New Mexico
Thursday night we crashed in the Infiniti at a rest stop about 50 miles into Texas. Woke up with the sun and with that “yeah I just slept upright in a car seat” feeling. Joey drove and we smashed through the rest of northern Texas. Stopping off in Amarillo at the Cadillac Ranch. Finally ending...
ATL2LA: Mississippi to Texas
Day Two, woke up and buffet’d @ Horseshoe Casino. Jumped into the G37 and Joey blazed his way through Arkansas. Then I jumped behind the wheel and drove through Oklahoma. The G37s was super fun to drive. Its smooth at high speeds, handles well with the 19 inch stock wheels, and has plenty of power...
ATL2LA: Atlanta to Mississippi
ATL2LA: Atlanta to Mississippi. After taking a red eye flight from Los Angeles to Atlanta on Monday night- Joey Redmond met me at ATL airport- which is a huge mess and we grabbed some un-godly good french toast for breakfast. Tuesday was spent catching up with some friends from Atlanta. Burgertime. Getting the tour of...
