We packed up a little plane with surfboards, tents and heavy as hell packs, got dropped of in the middle of nowhere and hiked out to the coast.

Here is a little snippit.

First up, just finished another fun shoot for howies. Shot in Tasmania, Australia whilst the summer still lingers on here and winter still has it’s grip on chilly Wales.

God bless fedex.

The book titled ‘Mountain Heroes: Portraits of Adventure’ is out this month, and looks yummy.

Working together with the awesome peeps at Harris + Wilson and my good buddies at A-Side Studio we ate pies, made cheese, ate pies, shot pheasants, ate pies, had a fake second christmas, ate pies and ate pies.

A very good job indeed.

The book is relaeased in a few days on September 1st and available from the usual suspects including Amazon. Rad.

So it turned out he was living basically up the end of my road in Hobart, so we got to know each other over a few coffees and then spent an afternoon hiking out to a little hut at the top of our local mountain. He is a total legend and an inspiring fella.

An awesome little job.

Here is one that didn’t quite make the cut.
