Edge | Top Bristol Bay Video Production

This summer turned out to be quite the adventure for Buffalo Media Group. Our shoot with Alaska Rainbow Lodge kicked off the first part of July was unreal! Waking up every day to head out into the wilderness of Alaska is without a doubt my most favorite part of my profession. The weather let up and we were able to enjoy a sun-filled day in southwest Alaska. The fishing for the guests was lights out as always and certainly makes for awesome filming! We can’t wait to see what other adventures lie in store for us in 2024.

Timeless | Anchorage Video Production Company

This past July Buffalo Media Group was invited up to Alaska Rainbow Lodge to cover photography and video production. We came at just the right time for the peak sockeye run and fishing was unreal! It has been two years since we were last on-location filming and running around in the wild Alaska bush. We are so proud to have Alaska Rainbow Lodge as one of our primary clients and we look forward to all that is to come in the coming years! Now sit back and take in this 3-minute action-packed video!

Purpose | Top Alaska Commerial Photographer

This year has been a super busy one for us here at Buffalo Media Group and in the midst of all the chaos we still have salmon and trout fishing fresh on our minds from last year still. Maybe it’s because we have been on a salmon run in northern Michigan and now have our eyes set on a northern Wisconsin steelhead and coho run. Of course, many of those experiences from our shoot with Alaska Rainbow Lodge were shared around the campfire at camp. We wanted to take a good look at some stock footage we covered and see if there’s any new material we can find and use. It’s a good thing I always overshoot because we were able to put together a completely new two-minute piece. This documentation is just from the shoot in late July. We of course have tons of material from our September shoot as well. We hope you all enjoy!

This series on Kulik is one that we over at Buffalo Media Group will hold dear for a longtime. The entire trip was insane. From flying deep into the heart of Katmai National Park to touching down on Kulik Lake with the moody skies was a sight to see. The fishing on the Kulik was lights out and allowed numerous opportunities for landing giant rainbow trout. We certainly were able to capture plenty of fish being landed. This is a trip of a lifetime and Alaska Rainbow Lodge is your guide.

Adventurer | Bristol Bay Resort Photographer

This past July Buffalo Media Group was on-location in Bristol Bay Alaska covering video production for Alaska Rainbow Lodge. We had already had an amazing couple days shooting at places like Moraine Creek and Kulik but nothing quite prepared us for an unforgettable experience such as that of Funnel Creek. Of course, we knew what to kind of expect after hearing from other guests that had been there in the days prior. Our expectations were quickly met upon our entrance into the creek itself. Lots of bear and lots of fish! This was certainly one of the coolest shooting experiences we’ve ever had filming! It was an experience like none other and one that can only be found through Alaska Rainbow Lodge and their expert guides.

Excursion | Alaska Commercial Video Production

This past July Buffalo Media Group was invited up to Alaska Rainbow Lodge in King Salmon, Alaska to cover commercial video production and photography. We had the great privilege of exploring many different river systems and creek, all amazing fisheries. This here is Moraine Creek right on the fringe of Katmai National Park. The creek is fairly swift flowing teaming with excellent rainbow trout fishing and wildlife.

This past September Buffalo Media Group headed back up to King Salmon, Alaska for our second shoot with Alaska Rainbow Lodge. We were so thrilled to be back in one of the coolest places on this planet. The legend of the giant fall rainbows were what we were after. We spent three days total covering a few different rivers. The Flats were the most popular destination choice for the guests. We are very proud of this quick video. This is the first part of a mini-series we are putting together to highlight the individual fishing locations.

Well where to begin…all I can say that right here is everything I have been striving for for the past 6 years. Our vision, drive, work ethic, and relentless pursuit of finding joy and happiness in work can be seen and felt right here. This is no doubt my dream job and am pouring all my emotion and heart into it. I am so thankful for this amazing opportunity starting with the owner, Chip Ferguson, whom made this all possible. There are only a handful of moments in my 16 year career where I have had a great conversation with someone and hang up and just start weeping with wide swept emotion and happiness. This was one of those instances. I try not to be overzealous but I can’t help get super stoked about the possibility to shoot for such a great company and operation. Alaska Rainbow Lodge has given us the amazing opportunity to contribute to something very neat and special to my career.

A little backstory, I began rapport with Chip back in February of 2020 with intentions of shooting in July of 2020. Well we all know how that year went and the shoot was unfortunately postponed until July of 2021. Needless to say I have been looking forward to this shoot for a long time coming. What made this event so much more extraordinary is that I had my fishing partner/best bud and cousin to come with and participate and model for the shoot. It’s an adventure we will take with us all our lifetime! When we are sitting around the fire in the northern Michigan fall chasing kings and silvers, we will be dwelling on the many amazing stories that came from our week at Alaska Rainbow Lodge.

Alaska Rainbow Lodge is exactly that…an every day adventure completely different from the previous day. Alaska Rainbow Lodge is world-class…period. Hopefully this video does the lodge justice although it’s best to be experienced and not sought vicariously. Many thanks goes out to Chip and Amanda, the expert guides, the hospitable staff and cooks and the amazing bush pilots! You guys are simply the best! A very special thanks to my wife for all her support and allowing me to focus on my passion and craft and always contributing in every way. Thanks to my amazing daughters as well for letting their daddy run around with the grizzlies! There is of course a long list of people in my life that have always supported us and lifted us up and have given us the motivation to pursue our passions. We look forward to the next great Alaskan fishing adventure!

This past June Buffalo Media Group kicked off our summer shooting season with a 13-day, 3 resort, 4-flight endeavor spanning from Alaska to Colorado onto JacksonHole, Wyoming and finally back home. We started by arriving in Fairbanks, Alaska at 11:00 pm at night which was still full daylight….super bizarre! We had a great couple days covering all the activities at Chena Hot Springs Resort. We love the staff which has a huge heart for hospitality! Thanks so much for giving Buffalo Media Group an opportunity to showcase our talents. We look forward to the next adventure with you guys!
