Music, Photography, mountain biking, beaches, mountains, travel, vacations, festivals, pretty people( physically and emotionally of course), friendships, laughter, snowboarding, floating rivers( canoes, whitewater kayaking, innertubes and belly floating), family, comfortable silence and whatever else comes my way.
Bands who are interested in publicity photos, album covers, design work or live documentary and tour photography.Also, I love the great outdoors, and the not so great outdoors are ok too. Kayakers, climbers, cyclists (freeride and freestyle riders mostly) who are interested in photography.www.bradhodgephoto.com

I really feel that since all people are equal there is no point in placing more value on one or another. No heroes, but I have much respect for Danny Clinch, Warren Haynes, Jason Pitzer, my mom and dad (of course) and most importantly god. If I were to name a hero though, it would have to be my dog Woo.
