We've officially reached picture lock on Wild Aerial, a short documentary film that follows Adventure Aerialist Sasha Galitzki to dramatic ice-bound locations in the Canadian Rockies.

She overcomes extreme cold and dizzying heights to perform aerial, connect with nature, and draw attention to the beauty and fragility of these rapidly changing icescapes.

And just like that, summer has flown by. It’s been busy with projects but I found some time to scale Fisher Peak with friends and test a new pancake lens.

Kimberley things. If you know, you know.

I’ve spent much of March shooting winter activities in Kimberley—some very familiar and some brand new to me.

I got my introduction to Fat Biking with Henk and Rose on a sunny day with nicely groomed trails. Despite being totally new to fat biking, it was one of those smooth and laid back shoots that didn't feel like work at all. I even managed some downhill action without eating snow!

So here’s to sunny winter rides with new friends—and a line of work that gets me away from my desk!
