After months of shooting images throughout the summer, I’ve decided to throw some of my favorites together and create a book that captures kiteboarding through my camera lens.
This summer has taken me from my home here in the Puget Sound all the way to Cape Hatteras for the tripleS event and then to San Francisco with the Blade Kiteboarding team, with numerous visits along the way to the Columbia River Gorge.
My passion is in capturing pictures of kiteboarding and just wanted the opportunity to share them with you.
I put this picture book together as a coffee table accessory, but wanted to make it available to all of my friends.
I have uploaded this book to www.blurb.com and you can order the book to your liking.
It’s not for everybody, but if you’re into kiteboarding, and want to see some stellar riding, you might like to have this book.
Just so you know, I don’t make any money on this. I’m just wanting to share with you my passion for capturing the sport.
Just go to the link to preview the book.

Hey Jim,

I've always enjoyed looking at your photos man! I had a question about your book, is there any text that goes along with the pictures or is it just full pages of photography? Any mention of where the picture was taken on each page? Thanks!

the only text was on the front and back cover.
in the future, I'll set it up more with detailed text.
making a picture book was what I set out to do.
I just wanted something to have on the coffee table so people could enjoy.
when I think of words, I know it needs to be more thought out so I'll try that on a future book.
as for the riding spots, most of the images are obvious (the gorge) most of the riders wearing light blue jerseys are from tripleS. the waddle shots are the ones where I'm shooting into the sun. not the best spot to shoot but I happened to be there the day Ian Alldredge, Josh Mulcoy and Patrick Rebstock were out riding.
