I couldn't help but think that the photographer profiled here suffers from a skewed perspective. As a professional photographer, he's used to traveling internationally to do a shoot, so he might think of it as no big deal for a New Jersey family to head out to the Adirondacks or Aspen for real skiing, as opposed to going to the planned mega-mall with indoor slopes [0].
