RistoI almost love photographing skiing as much as skiing itself. It’s a passion that’s intensified over the last few years. There’s so many different ways to capture the sport — high-angles, water-level perspectives, slow shutter speeds which showcase speed and intensity, pulled-out views that highlight the beauty of an early-morning glass session. Shooting action photography can be as addicting as a slalom course. I have that constant desire to improve and learn from my mistakes. It’s interesting, though. Sometimes those mistakes can end up being some of my favorite photos. Happy shooting!

BEHIND THE PHOTO: I’ve spent a considerable amount of time dog paddling through slalom courses and avoiding being nailed by skis over the years. To witness the sport from water-level and in really close proximity to the action is pretty amazing. Shortline shots like this one of Trent Finlayson captured from down the buoy-line highlight the amazing reach and timing it takes to make a sweet turn at 41 off.”–Todd Ristorcelli
