How Does it Work? 

I'll join you on your outdoor activity and take photos.  I'm happy to recommend photogenic spots in the Sea to Sky Corridor (if you need suggestions).  I'll also help to "pose" you for the best-looking action photos.

Afterwards, I'll send you a link to a private folder on my website with the images from the day's activity.  If you like them, you can buy them.  If not, you owe me nothing.

 

What is the Cost?

You are under no obligation to purchase any of the images we take.  However, if you do choose to purchase images, then I'll charge you based on the amount of time that the shoot took. 

 

  • For 1-3 hours my rate is $100/hr.
     
  • For a half-day (3-4 hours) my rate is $350.
     
  • My full day rate (up to eight hours) is $500.
     
  • For more than eight hours my rate is $600.

 

My rates also includes post-processing of the photos afterwards (exposure adjustment, color correction, etc.)  For that price you will get high-resolution digital copies of all the images that we took that day.

 

As a bonus, if you do decide to buy the digital copies of the images, then I will also send you a coupon code which will allow you to purchase prints of any of the images you want at no markup.  You can use the coupon code to purchase prints at cost.

 

What Activities Will I Photograph?

Just about anything.  Backcountry skiing, mountain biking, hiking, scrambling, mountaineering, canoeing, kayaking, etc.  Examples of the kinds of shoots that I have done include:

On a clear day the views across the Cheakamus River Valley to Castle Towers Mountain are awe-inspiring.

On this day in December of 2018 my ski partner and I did laps until we were exhausted, and then donned our headlamps and skied out via Singing Pass trail in the dark (always an adventure).

Camping Photos

 

I have experience in all these activities and I would love to accompany you on whatever you have planned.
 

What Ability Level Do You Need?

Whatever your ability, it doesn't matter.  I am happy to photograph anyone at any level.  Whether that means a short 20-minute walk to a scenic spot, or whether that means skiing a 50-degree slope, I'll photograph you.
