Digital Ski/misc Photography

[jlangdale]

I'm a software engineer, recently moved to Waitsfield, VT. Been skiing New England since around 95 and only recently buying passes for the last few season, going regular to Mount Snow, Killington, Sugarbush & Stowe. Last season I worked part-time at NASTAR at Sugarbush on weekends doing action photography. I've skied Colorado while in the USAF stationed in Denver. I learned to ski at Tahoe when I was a kid, been snowboarding only last season and can connect turns, not fall.

I'm hoping to hook up with some cool people and take some pictures, maybe find a club or team that needs photography documented, or maybe find another opportunity to work at a mountain. Not looking for pay, although would be nice if anything comes out especially nice. Mostly would be cool to have a free season pass again somewhere. Digital doesn't cost me anything except time, and time spent on the time is worth it. I have a Mac Powerbook to view and usually shot 300-400 pictures at a time with my cards at high resolution. I use a Canon EOS 1D pro body shoots 8 frames per second.

Does anyone know who handles photography at Stowe or any of the other resorts? I know Sharpshooter does Killington and they are still doing film.

Cheers,
