After leaving Tucumcari, New Mexico we headed further west to Albuquerque – home of the second longest tramway in the world. We rode the tram up to the top, which provided spectacular views of the state and city. We didn’t stay long because the winds at the top were blowing and it was very chilly....

A Day with Will – Westy Ohio to California
Chicago, Illinois November 2011. The leaves were golden and hanging on like the last warmth of summer on a fall afternoon. It was time to bring my 1974 Volkswagen Westfalia Van back out to California from the midwest. The van, known as Westy – short for the Westfalia camper conversion it sports, had been at...
A Day with Will – NZ II
Rhys uses his hands to explain car positioning for a video we shot in New Zealand on his family’s property. We ended up mowing sections of the long grass down to make a golf course like setup for his rally car. Some of the other residents were curious about our project. Rod Millen has a...
A Day with Will – China Pt III
Larry showed us the “counter fit” markets. They were filled with knock off: watches, glasses, bags, and clothes. Skylar does his best german rocket scientist pose. SCIENCE! After the markets we all jumped into Tuk Tuk like three wheeled motorcycle carts and raced off to Westlake. The cultural area that surrounds the lake. Its known...
A Day with Will – Bulls on Parade
As I was about to leave for Atlanta last week for the second round of the 2011 Formula Drift season – I got an email from a friend asking a favor. Someone had cancelled on him for an important shoot and he needed a POV camera operator. Being a user and supporter of Contour HD...
Quick Snaps – FLorida
If you wanted to read what I had to say, this blog wouldn’t have so many pictures…less talking, more shutter clicks. My life, May 9, 2011. Until next time. More dancing, less talking.
Project 240sx
I’ve owned my 1995 Nissan 240sx since early 2008. From 2008 – late 2010 it was my daily driver. It was a project car for Rice Boy TV – where we added Enkei RPF1′s (18 x 8.5 (rear) & 18 x 7.5 (front)), an AEM intake, Magnacore wires, plugs, NRG short hub, NRG quick release,...
As of late.
January was a busy month for me, however so was last January – when I did the same thing: Dubai 24 hour race & the Sundance film festival. As someone who goes from project to project this type of routine is uncommon – but welcomed. Team Need for Speed, which I was following in Dubai...
A Day with Will – London via Linhbergh
Linhbergh and I rode the express to Paddington station and then hopped on the Underground to explore downtown London. We had a few hours to kill before our flight to Atlanta for Formula Drift. Linhbergh is a solid photographer and being able to travel around the city and take photos with him is a blast....
A Day with Will – Dubai Part Two
There is an indoor ski and snowboard hill inside the mall of the Emirates in Dubai. It’s incredibly cheezy. Fake snow in a gigantic refrigerator. I personally enjoy the snowmen and penguins – oh and the ski lift. The Address Hotel in Dubai is a nice place to stay. Plus it looks like a gigantic...
A Day with Will – Sundance 2010 Day Zero
Less than 24 hours from the first official day of the Sundance Film Festival and the snow is still coming down. This is my third year working at the festival. Which makes me feel more relaxed and comfortable with the event. Plus that I have more great Sundance friends than the previous years. The light...
A Day with Will – Dubai
January 2010, the Dubai 24H race brought me to the UAE. To document the Need For Speed team’s 997 GT III cup car with the Speedhunters team. Dubai is an juxtaposition of eastern and western cultures. As a center of tourism, Dubai is a playground for western tourists. While also being rooted in its arabic...
A Day with Will – Pin Hole Camera
As a Christmas present, my sister Lindy gave me a Pin Hole camera kit. The kit includes a home made camera photography book and the pieces to assemble your own 35mm pin hole camera. Using the heavy paper, dowel rods, pre punched pin holes, and take up canister – you can build your own pin...
A Day with Will – Costa Rica 1
I’ll admit, most of the work I do allows me to travel. In the past couple of years, I’ve been able to visit some amazing places with jobs. When my schedule started to ease up towards the end of 2009 I decided to take a break, and… gasp, go on a vacation. My friend Katie...
A Day with Will – Costa Rica Preview
A Day with Will is the post category that came out of ‘A Day in the Life of…” challenge. Which was a single day photo exchange between myself and KD almost a year ago. It has since evolved into being a day in my life. Any day that I pick and have my camera around...
A Day with Will – moo goo gai pan week
Moo Goo Gai Pan week 2009. The week when Brian Steele and Jason Buckley are the same age for the year. Better known as the week between their respective birthdays. This year, a bunch of us went to Ocean Seafood in LA’s Chinatown. I brought the 7D and my 50mm f1.4 to document the celebration....
A Day with Will – NY2LA
This story starts in Richmond, Virginia and ends back in Los Angeles, California. It takes place in the places in between. The states along highway 80 ranging from New York, Pennsylvania, Ohio, Indiana, Illinois, Iowa, Nebraska, Wyoming, and Utah. Then on to highway 15 through Utah, Arizona, Nevada, and California. The places in between. The...
A Day with Will – Breezin’ back to Cleveland
Easter bunny blue skies and chocolate brown waters. The wind whips the surface of Lake Erie into a swirling pool out of Willy Wonka’s factory. Normally, the peaceful waters are an opaque green. Then the northern winds fetch over the calm freshwater and over mile and miles – create wind waves. The period between these...
A Day with Will – Virginia
Virginia is a state filled with a fantastic amount of US history. During my time there, I drove around monument avenue and took in statues as they whizzed past. More importantly, I got to ride motorcycles – which is one of the most fantastic things – ever. While camped out South of Richmond, VA. Wrapping...
A Day with Will – I won’t let you fade away
Never ending roads, drive until you hit the coast, rest up, turn around and drive until you hit the other. Here is the beginning of one trip. And the end of another. I just ended the longest road trip I’d been on to date and am going to start another. Planning another for later this...
