Zuriick F/W 2011 shots are bleedin' out globally. Spotted on France's Le Container...

2012-01-05T09:08:00.001-07:00

Seriously, I can't even listen to enough Nick Cave in a 24 hour period. Fucking mind blowing.

Hey, Brighton locs; I've got a new Nixon window ad goin' up at Brighton, the stomping grounds of the greatest shreds on the planet. Please don't spit on it as much as you do the Oakley clings. Thanks. Jeremy Jones, wallride at Nixon Jibfest 2011.

2011-12-05T09:39:00.001-07:00

I can't fucking wait for this album.

2011-11-26T11:23:00.002-07:00

I have a small stack of prints left over from shows over the past couple months. All prints are 20x30, unmounted, and ready to be framed or hung in your garage with thumbtacks. So go snag a gift for the dirtbag in your life, or get something for yourself to hang in your big-city apartment to remind you that somewhere out there, people are livin' the dream. Go HERE to see everything that's available, or go HERE to order. Thanks.

Last Call.

2011-11-19T13:54:00.001-07:00

This shit's tonight.

8pm-2am. The Garage, SLC. Release of my book, Get Right; DiCE Magazine issue 41 release; live music by God's Revolver and Raid... it's almost too much to fathom. Be there.

2011-11-18T19:45:00.002-07:00

I have a book. Release party: tomorrow, Saturday Nov. 19th at The Garage... 1199 North Beck St. in SLC, Utah. 8pm-2am. Be there. Whatever's left will be for sale on Bolts Action some time next week...

2011-11-02T18:17:00.001-06:00

My little brother is awesome. Now you can share him with me by watching his sweet ass on The Discovery Channel's Flying Wild Alaska. Check his show-bio here.

2011-10-25T19:12:00.003-06:00

DiCE Magazine, Bolts//Action and my book release, all rolled into one mega-party. Serious rock and roll to be provided by none other than God's Revolver. November 17. Salt Lake City. Fuck yeah. I guess I better finish this book.

2011-10-25T18:59:00.002-06:00

In an effort to boost productivity, I've been internet free here in the office for 6 or 7 weeks now. I just brought it back, and my feelings on the matter are definitely mixed. Fuck it.

2011-09-26T16:57:00.002-06:00

Been home from NY Fashion Week for a minute. Posts are starting to drop... scope MilkMADE for some, and more on my Tumblr. There's a lot more on deck, so keep your eyeballs peeled.

2011-09-11T13:51:00.001-06:00

RIDDEN :: Photographs from the road. Show opens Friday. God's Revolver at 10. Guaranteed to make at least a few wonder when I got so fucking boring.

2011-08-15T14:41:00.003-06:00

My show RIDDEN will be opening at FiCE Gallery this Friday, the 19th. 160 East 200 South, downtown SLC. Opening reception starts at 7, live music by God's Revolver at 10. I'd love to see y'all there. Thanks.

From the vault. Davis on deck, Landman as The BGP Warlock.

2011-08-03T02:28:00.002-06:00

I can't believe this was a year ago. I'm fuckin' drowning in time travel.

2011-08-03T02:26:00.000-06:00

Pit pass to the races, guaranteed good times.

2011-08-03T02:25:00.000-06:00

Jer was here.

2011-07-29T00:53:00.001-06:00

31 prints from 31 SLC based photographers. Tonight, July 29th. If you're downtown SLC, swing in... I'll be gettin' my brown-bag on around 8:30, most likely.

LNP at Nixon Jibfest 2011. After 8 years MIA, it's back. Full stories will start dropping soon, and all these sleepless nights will finally bear fruit.

2011-07-25T01:07:00.004-06:00

Jer and Seth, WWF gainer steez in the Tetons, last weekend (<-click that). More on BOLTS.

America, Fuck Yeah. Somewhere in rural central Utah, last week.

Karaoke And Prostitutes. Phoenix.

2011-06-30T18:35:00.004-06:00

Like peanut butter and jelly.

The greatest night of Karaoke of anyone's life, ever?

The Great Film Purge continues.

2011-06-30T02:49:00.002-06:00

I have a black bag in my office that's stuffed full of hundreds of rolls of film, all of them shot and long since forgotten about. Some are weeks old, some might be a decade old... I really don't know yet. Today I started grabbing at random and running 'em through chemical at the cheapest grocery store photo lab I could find. Stay tuned.

2011-06-08T15:01:00.001-06:00

Keep your arms inside the ride at all times... Blotto's driving. Nixon Jibfest, after hours. Full story coming soon.

2011-05-30T13:02:00.002-06:00

Milk Studios recently posted a spotlight on me and my work on their Milk Made site. Possibly the best birthday present ever. And to think, the first season I shot Fashion Week with them, I got hassled by security for looking like a hobo... earned respect feels so much more satisfying than the free shit. Thanks, Milk. I love y'all. (Click here to check it.)

2011-05-16T10:44:00.001-06:00

After 3 weeks of solid road-work, this was "the work-cation". I promise, it's more entertaining than watching your aunt's slide show of the cheese factory.

Yesterday, Utah County. I failed and didn't take a "real" camera for fear of fuckin' it up before my road trip with Goldcoast tomorrow. I did my damnedest to catch what I could with my iPhone, though. Scope the whole iPhone camera story HERE.

2011-03-22T12:22:00.006-06:00

My friend Jesse, a rambler with better stories than most can tell first-hand. I convinced him to spend a few days in Utah last week --- somewhere in the midst we were able to kick out a few quick frames: HERE

2011-03-16T12:34:00.009-06:00

Last month Dan Christofferson and I had the idea to collaborate on a print piece. A week later, this is what we had in our hands. VGBND, a collaborative photo journal.

- Only 100 Printed. When they're gone, they're gone -

New Site...

2011-03-10T23:35:00.009-07:00

I've been working on a new site, and finally I'm able to do it under my own name instead of the blacklistVISUAL moniker. It's been live for a minute, but I wasn't feeling ready to officially call it launched yet. Somehow, though, it appears word is out --- Google analytics is showing a 587% increase in traffic over the past few days... so, I might as well call it real. Check it out, gimme your thoughts, forward it to everyone who should hire me, and bookmark it --- there's a lot of new shit in the works. (If you're a fan of the old site, no worries --- it'll stick around a while. But the new site finally gives me the control to update on a whim, so that's where the future lies...)

"Who The Fuck Is Steven Stone?" Who the fuck cares, really. This is what happens when we should be sleeping at Milk Fashion Week.

Jenna as me. Check a much more complete batch of photos over at Icono's blog.

2011-03-03T22:42:00.002-07:00

From Jared Leto's blog... "Just living every high school girl's dream, taking selfies with Steven Stone --- no big deal".

No big deal. Or truth.

2011-02-22T22:51:00.001-07:00

Scoped the new soon-to-be-office-slash-studio this afternoon. It comes with free scavengers --- stoked.

2011-02-21T12:31:00.000-07:00

Been in NYC for two weeks running a camera for a documentary project based around NY Fashion Week. Eventually I'll get around to posting some of that. For now, I can't think of a better way to be welcomed back to Utah than 2 feet of fresh and a dixie-cup overpass-greeting intended for someone else. Thanks... it's good to be back.

2011-02-07T15:47:00.003-07:00

Dear Film Loving Hipsters; I'm packing for Fashion Week... all this, or one 5D MKII?

(I'm a fool, it all goes. On the right, the reason I don't shoot much film these days - it just takes up space in my cheese drawer. Your AE-1 Program don't impress me much. Not pictured, the Hassie... Jac just borrowed it.)

2011-02-05T19:30:00.002-07:00

Wow, it's already that time again. The most fashionable of all weeks commences shortly... stay tuned for the documentation.

The Wolf Moon.

2011-01-14T20:56:00.004-07:00

My little brother is a fucking badass. He came out of the Air Force a few years back after a 6 year stint turning wrenches on C-5's and C-17's. As soon as he was discharged, he scored a job as a bushpilot in Alaska, delivering pizzas, medicine, or whatever else to towns like that one in 30 Days Of Night. The company he works for is now being featured on The Discovery Channel's new show, Flying Wild Alaska, premiering tonight. Tune in... I love that little fucker.

Two good friends, both amongst 8 of the best snowboarders on the planet invited to compete in ESPN's video-only X-games competition - "Real Snow" - where they were asked to produce a one minute video segment during the early season... go check the videos. And vote. I hope to see both my homies in the final bracket, at which point I'll stand back and let the kids decide.

Check it out HERE.

2011-01-05T03:41:00.002-07:00

New website, dropping soon.

Merry Christmas. The fog is neat. Blandscapes, comin' down the mountain.

2010-12-20T09:11:00.002-07:00

Over the past week, Harley Davidson's Dark Customs division has been dropping mini-galleries including intakes and outtakes from my upcoming books, focused on the transient life of riding motorcycles with my beautiful friends. Check the first batch out here, here and here.

2010-12-07T16:24:00.002-07:00

An 8 minute jam for smokes just turned into a 2 hour solo exploration of the mountains above my house. It's fucking beautiful out today.

2010-12-02T13:49:00.002-07:00

Dear Hip Art Directors: Please stop showing me Vans that I haven't seen before. My chick thanks you in advance. OTW, FTW.

Riding season's winding down; building season's rapidly approaching.

2010-09-28T03:39:00.002-06:00

I've been waitin' for it... Justin and Pierre's new flick CHEERS is finally on the shelves. Check it out for some of the best shred from some good friends of mine. And, if it helps, I shot the DVD covers... so there's that, too. More about all of it here. And check out The People Crew's site to find the premier closest to you... get there. And buy it, for real, hard copy steez... not on iTunes.

2010-09-27T19:16:00.005-06:00

A quick thanks to my friends at COMUNE, VOLCOM and ANON for dressing me during NYC Fashion Week. Looking the part definitely made the job go smoother... thanks, gentlemen.

Mac & Milk Fashion Week, SS11

2010-09-27T11:26:00.004-06:00

Took a few off after 12 sleepless days in NYC, shooting Mac & Milk fashion week. Now I'm back. Scope the highlights, and keep your eyes peeled for the final video, including a mini Audi ad we shot in 5 hours with zero budget. Gonna be banger.

Seth, French.

2010-07-28T23:43:00.003-06:00

French snow/skate/art/radness magazine Desillusion just released issue 24, featuring a quick interview with my homie, Seth. I provided photos from a recent jam. Added bonus --- Corey Smith has an article in there, too. It's always rad to find out I'm sharing space with creators I respect. If you're in France, check it out. Otherwise, I can't tell you where to find it.

(Sorry for the small screengrabs from the online version --- I'll post bigger pics once the hardcopies arrive.)

Dennis Hopper, one of my all time favorite weirdo's... RIP. In honor of Dennis, someone should really buy me this for my birthday. For those who don't know, Mr. Hopper crushed it as a shooter, too.

Last night, shooting Andy's latest. No detials til he's ready to unleash it.

Been gone for a minute.

7 Days.

2010-05-04T00:16:00.002-06:00

Seth's edit from 7 Days in our lives. My life is amazing, my friends are amazing... sorry for the repost, but it was just that good.

2010-04-08T19:30:00.002-06:00

Another icon down. Maybe you didn't like The Pistols and The Dolls? Maybe Bow Wow Wow was more your speed? Maybe you were just a huge Duck Rock fan? Maybe none of these gave you reason to respect the man? Just remember... he's also half responsible for the conception of Joe Corre, founder of Agent Provocateur --- that alone validates his existence. RIP, Malcom McLaren.

NYC Fashion Week, 2010. Spent just shy of 2 weeks in NYC last month to shoot video for Mac Cosmetics and Milk Studios... here's the first edit out. Filmed by Kalvin Lazarte, Jon Larsen and myself. Edited by Kalvin. Scope it... good times. Thanks for bringing me out, gentlemen. Let's do it again.

Dear New York: After nearly 2 weeks, I've left the building.

2010-02-06T13:04:00.005-07:00

Photos of myself taking a photo always draw out my inner dorky 8 year old and generally compel me to find the frame being taken in the photo of the photo-taker. In this case, a shot of Hobbs taken in front of Love Cycles while jamming with the Bolts crew in Phoenix. Photo in photo by Andy Carter.

2010-02-03T01:53:00.003-07:00

Andy, city sidewalk wheelstand. Another Moto Monday down... check BOLTS for more in-depth trickle-down updates.

Concrete pipes. Last week, 7am, from the window of my truck.
