Photographer Sterling Lorence

I grew up on Vancouver's north Shore and continue to live here with my wife and daughter. Mountain biking in the forests of the north shore inspired me to become a photographer and I have been lucky to call it my career for more than ten years.

I feel fortunate to have been able to shoot the evolution of freeride mountain biking alongside some of the sport's greatest athletes, for the most progressive brands, in locations all over the planet.

My motivation as a photographer is similar to that of why I chose to ride. The trails that exist on our planet will take you into incredible places, with breathtaking scenery and striking light and they will take a lifetime to discover, session, and photograph.

Highlights of the past year include: shooting for Bike magazine in Iceland, being hired by the City of Vancouver to photograph the 2010 Winter Olympics, and shooting stills for documentary filmmaker and skateboard legend, Stacy Peralta.
