VANS
MTE Collection
To me, Vans is a classic brand in our mountain culture. I was chosen along with a few photographers worldwide to shoot this global campaign using only film and an iPhone. We could apply filters on the iPhone, but everything else had to follow these rules. All photos were taken in Alaska and British Columbia, capturing the raw and untamed beauty of these rugged landscapes. The combination of film’s timeless quality and the immediacy of the iPhone created a unique blend of authenticity and modernity. This project not only challenged my creativity but also deepened my connection to the natural environments that inspire much of my work and the Vans community as a whole.
