In 2012, parts of the latest film from Warren Miller Entertainment were shot in Niseko, and I was invited to shoot the stills. FLOWSTATE is now touring Australia, and here are some highlights.

FLOWSTATE successfully premiered in the US October last year and was then shown in cinemas throughout North America Europe and beyond. With resorts opening for the season in the southern hemisphere, FLOWSTATE is now touring Australia.

It was a great opportunity to work with these world-class skiers, and inspirational filmmakers. It’s been awesome to see some of my shots used to promote the film, and also feature in SNOWORLD, the Warren Miller magazine available at the screenings.
