I\u2019m a photographer at heart, and I wasn\u2019t doing what I really wanted to do, and I didn\u2019t have the time to devote to shooting for the mag, since I was the Editor, Photo Editor, and staff photographer. I was responsible for checking things off of lists, keeping in touch with over 150 photographers, tracking down photo files, color correcting, making sure stories were done, maintaining a strong relationship with key people at each brand, going to deadlines in Portland, and when time permitted; shoot. It had gotten to the point that I would dust my gear off one day a month to shoot some boots, or whatever the products were. Trust me, I don\u2019t regret any of it. I did far more in the magazine business than I set out to, and the experience is so valuable. It was a good ten years.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>Follow the link for the rest of the interview.
