Life Viewed From The Edge

Opposed to photographing mountains from down low, I shoot where few dare to go: atop the highest peaks at first light. I climb for hours in the night to shoot sunrise from a summit, capturing rare compositions from up high. Without the aid of drone or aircraft, I carry all my climbing and camera gear to show the feats we can reach if we step outside our comfort zones.

Here's some behind the scenes footage showing what goes into these epic adventures!
