Hannah Childress

I’m Hannah Childress, an outdoor industry photographer and videographer specializing in mountain biking. My photography journey began in 2017 when I enrolled in a black and white film photography class while at university in Northern California. I quickly fell in love with the process of capturing and processing images, perceiving my environment in a new light. During this time, I was simultaneously developing my newfound love for mountain biking and decided to go all-in, leaving my career as an Emergency Medical Technician to pursue a path as an action and adventure sports photographer and videographer. 

Three years ago, I intentionally began living nomadically to position myself closer to these adventures and to make those 3am wake-up calls to chase the morning light just a little easier. Over the last year, I have fallen more and more in love with the landscapes of the Sea to Sky, finding myself making the trek from California to BC several times to chase the jaw-dropping views and endless trails. Along the way, I’ve had the privilege to connect with some amazing female mountain bikers who embody all the qualities that inspire me to seek out unique stories to capture and are important to share.

Joel Ducrot

Born and raised in Switzerland, I learned to ride a bike pretty quickly after learning how to walk. Since then, mountain biking has been a common thread throughout my life. Taking on a multitude of shapes and forms, it became the main catalyst for what’s to come. It led me to picking up a camera at the age of 14 to document my friends and myself riding—initiating a way to be more intentional about my creative expression on both sides of the lens. 

My work’s goal is to showcase subject, context and movement from perspectives that get as close as possible to the feeling of the experience — and to evolve new ways of interacting with different environments.

Just another person whose heart belongs to this place we call whistler! Born and raised in southern São Paulo, Brazil, I’ve accidentally met photography along my biking journey and never stopped collecting memories ever since. I think I’m just another typical whistler human, out there for fun and to express my passion for the mountains!

Based in Austria and a regular visitor to Whistler since 2000, I have transitioned from mountain bike racing to photography, capturing the spirit and energy of the biking community. Now living the dream, I continue to explore and document the thrilling world of mountain biking. The future is unwritten, and I’m excited to see where this journey takes me next.
