This weekend was Burlington’s 4th annual Giant Pumpkin Regatta and Festival. In addition to the paddled pumpkins, pictured below, there were food vendors, music, dance performances, and even a dog costume [...]

This past Saturday, Race Vermont held their annual Spring Half Marathon. I’ve photographed a number of events for them and they’re always a good time; this one was no exception. The weather forecast threatened rain, but we only got the lightest of sprinkles during the event. The flooding in Vermont meant that Rayne had to [...]

They have gone from competing for a minimal crowd in one of the smaller rooms at the Champlain Valley Expo to presenting a double-header bout in the large room.

Saturday morning I awoke to drizzle and rain, so I packed up my car with extra rain gear and headed to Shelburne to photograph the Race Vermont Half Marathon for SkiPix.com.

This past Saturday, the Green Mountain Derby Dames, Vermont’s first flat track roller derby team, took on the Maine Calamity Janes for a spring showdown.

Yesterday, the Green Mountain Derby Dames took on the Utica Clubbers in their March Madness bout. Basher Barbie gives the crowd some love. The Silencer lays the smack down. The Atomic Muffin fights to stay inbounds. (She succeeded.) Blondie looks so relaxed as a Utica skater prepares to make the hit. You can see more [...]

On February 19th, The Sweet Remains hit the big stage at Higher Ground with Naia Kete and Barefoot Truth. The Sweet Remains is a trio, usually, however they’ve played a fair number of shows backed by members of The Grift, making them a 6 piece band. If you don’t have their album, I highly recommend [...]
