Cyclist, trail runner, photographer. I cover races from the inside.
A competitive background gives me two things most photographers don’t have: the physical ability to stay inside the action, and the experience to read it before it happens. I ride the course, run the trails, and understand what a race demands, because I’ve been there.
As a Team Manager in the gravel circuit, I also run the full structure around competition: athlete management, sponsor relations, race logistics and media production. It gives me a complete view of every event, from the decisions made before the start to the frames that tell the story after.


Field Shooting & Brand Campaigns

Photography campaigns on location, mountains, gravel roads, alpine passes. I build images around athlete, product and landscape together, treating the scene as part of the story, not just a backdrop.
Work for cycling, outdoor and technical apparel brands. From moodboard to final edit: complete creative and production management on location.

Race & Event Coverage

Full photo coverage of cycling races and trail running events, from multiple vantage points, on-bike and on-foot. Athletic ability means direct access to the heart of the action, where no static photographer can reach.
Experienced in major international gravel events including Unbound Gravel, The Traka, and the full Gravel Earth Series circuit. Pre-race shooting available, with same-day content delivery.



Team Management

I work as a Team Manager in the professional gravel circuit, following the team across the full season, both on the organisational side and as media producer. A dual role that puts me inside every phase of competition: behind the lens during the race, and behind the decisions that make it happen.
Athlete Management
Day-to-day coordination, logistics, race preparation and direct support to athletes throughout the season.
Sponsor Relations
Partnership development, contract management, deliverables tracking and long-term sponsor relationships.
Race Calendar
Season planning, race entries, travel logistics and on-site coordination for international events.
Media & Social
Full media coverage of the team — photography, social content, press releases and image licensing.
