Early on, skateboarding, surfing, and snowboarding were pursuits that lit Lee up; only, he was rubbish at all of them. Not being able to resist the feeling and the lifestyles these pursuits embodied, he stumbled upon a way to stay involved and provide value to the people he respected so highly - the athletes. By having a camera on him, he could tag along with the real talent in action sports and catalogue split-second segments of their incredible lives in photos. Freezing moments of exceptional people changing the face of action sports and the scenes surrounding these achievements became his mode of sharing the story of the lifestyle and the community that drives it.

Honing photography skills shooting action and people in volatile mountain elements provided a unique learning platform that is now adaptable to any environment. Once you've lugged gear through waist-deep snow and dealt with blizzards, minus-ridiculous temperatures and light conditions that change in a flash, any other location is a snap to shoot in. The images Lee has captured of the most amazing people in snowboarding represent the skills and techniques that can be employed to creative effect in any environment; mountains, beaches, city streets, urban scenes, skate parks, bike trails - anywhere that showcases the action and the lifestyle.

Lee’s photographic storytelling is built on authentically showcasing a specific moment in a story to a global audience via a visually striking image. Whether for social media content, editorial catalogues, marketing collateral or any form of media outlet, the most impactful images are those that portray their subject authentically and spark something in the viewer. 

Having spent many years playing ramen connoisseur in Japan and working with the Japanese Olympic Snowboard Team, Lee is a fluent Japanese speaker and suitably placed to assist with shoots involving Japanese talent or on-location work in Japan.

Lee is based in Melbourne, Australia, but works worldwide.
