the summit
-
The Summit is an annual event by All The Elements, Patagonia and HF Holidays for people and communities of colour to connect and collaborate on the shared goal of increasing representation in the outdoors space. I was asked to attend as a delegate being one of the only POC leaders within the adventure photography space. I was also commissioned to capture the 3 day event, with a keen focus on candid shots of other delegates partaking in the planned activities and discussions.
