It’s always worth it to go a little further.

Her photos reveal the pure joy found in the outdoors and character of those who embrace it. Emily is based in Colorado where she has amazing access to the sports she loves, people to share them with, and the inspiration of the Rocky Mountains.

Heather is a photographer and filmmaker from New England, now based in Southern California. She has shot everything from fashion to commercial work, and specializes in action sports, mountain bikes, and the outdoor industry.

Leslie was born and raised on Colorado’s Front Range. As a kid, her parents gave her three things that have shaped her life: a bike, a camera, and a love of travel. About 15 years ago, she quit her conventional job, sold most of her belongings, and rode her bike around the world. Among other things, the experience taught her that she is better at sleeping in a tent rather than sitting at a desk. These days Leslie lives in a barn in East Tennessee and gets excited about creating visual stories about humans, the outdoors, and all the moments in between. Her editorial work has been published with media outlets such as Freehub, Mountain Flyer, and Outside Magazines. Leslie’s commercial clients include Big Mountain Bike Adventures, Juliana Bicycles, Patagonia, and Shimano.

I have had the pleasure of being a professional photographer full-time since 2008 and part-time
3 years before that. With a degree in Fine Arts and a background as an athlete, I've embarked
on a thrilling adventure that has taken me across the globe. I've
had the privilege of traveling far and wide, capturing thrilling moments on national and international stages. Beyond my photographic endeavors, I also serve as a Senior Staff Writer for Fstoppers, and I'm humbled to be the only one of two females globally in this role. I also write for the AI Editing software Imagen and the culture division in Miami.
