Aaron "AJax" Johnson, Front Blunt

A-Jax, Front Blunt
It's always cool to meet someone for the first time and then to find out they know a bunch of people you know. One degree of separation becomes none. That was the case when I met AJax last week through my roommate Donny, and it turned out he knows all my buddies from the éS Game of SKATE. This past year AJax won the local Game here in California and then went on place 2nd in the international finals in Texas.
Here, Ajax puts to rest the generalization that kids who win Games of SKATE can only skate flatground.

More Tearsheets: Editorial Work for Newport Beach and Laguna Beach Magazines


I promise there are some skateboard photos coming here soon, but in the meantime here are a few tearsheets of my work featured in the most recent issues of Newport Beach Magazine and Laguna Beach Magazine.


 These images, along with more that I shot, can be seen in the January-February 2011 issues of Newport Beach Magazine and Laguna Beach Magazine, which are on Southern California newsstands now, or online at http://www.OCInSite.com

Emerica Ad, a Quick Tearsheet

Things have been pretty quiet over here on the blog, but rather than go into a lengthy run-down of what I've been up to the past 3 months I will keep it brief. I've been shooting a ton, both skating and product in the studio. I just wrapped shooting for Sole Technology's Holiday 2011 catalog a few weeks ago. Since that catalog isn't out yet, I can't show most of the work I have done, but I did get asked to shoot an ad for Emerica that is on newsstands now, so that is something I can show you.


This ad can be seen as a two-page spread in Issue 85 (April 2011) of The Skateboard Mag.
