Big air photography at Air and Style - Red Bull Illume 2010

Getting the right shots at a high profile event requires more than just turning up and snapping away. The Air & Style, one of snowboarding's oldest and most prestigious competitions, is one such event where capturing the winning stunt in the best possible manner is crucial.

We spoke to German photographer Richard Walch who was at the most recent Air & Style in December 2009, about how to prepare, which lens to use when and how to make sure you get everything covered.

The basic "rule" in this kind of photography(actually, in general photography) is to create a story not with words, but with an image you've painted on the frame.

i thought that photographers just took videos for events like this and took photos out of the vid- this seems harder
