Danner Boots: Go There Campaign

For the past four year’s I’ve been entrusted with the honor of being both director and DP for this award-winning series for Danner Boots, alongside my photographer husband Corey Arnold. We’ve had the privilege of documenting some of the most inspiring humans of the Pacific Northwest: among them Sophia Dannenberg—the first Black person to summit Everest, renowned National Geographic photographer Kiliii Yuyan, the Gunniers, a generations-old Indigenous fishing family, and adaptive-athlete Kimber Belle, who’s stretching boundaries of what’s possible for athletes worldwide. Telling these stories over the last few years has informed both my style of storytelling and my reverence for this medium.

For the last four years I’ve been entrusted as the director and Dp for the Danner Boots Go There Series, a set of stories highlighting PNW humans who have pursued their passions ardently and outside the realms of convention.
