DAVID CLIFFORD
I am a commercial & editorial photographer based in Aspen
& Denver CO.
I've been lucky enough to travel the world and document some of
the best climbers and runners in the world. As the Photo Editor at
Rock & Ice Magazine as well as Trail Runner Magazine I have
forged life long relationships with many talented people. I enjoy
spending time with creative and gifted athletes in amazing
locations.
I have been selected as a Red Bull Illume finalist, an America
24-7 photographer, a PDN Outdoor finalist and a Maggy award for
Photo Editing at Rock & Ice Magazine.
I've been a life long photographer and count myself lucky to
have so many friends in the industry. I've also spent the last 2
decades on the cutting edge and have mentored a half dozen of the
best outdoor photographers on the planet. It's been both a blessing
and a curse I relish. There is nothing quite as satisfying as
getting that next great image or sharing it with friends and fellow
aperture junkies.
When I am not behind the lens I spend time with my wife Rixt and 3
kids, Miles & Sasha (twins) and the new little man Hayden. When
I am not spending time with my family I can be found skiing,
mountain biking, climbing, trail running or searching for the
coolest vintage motorcycle around.
I also lead the Rock & Ice Magazine Photo Camps every June
and teach photography workshops at the Telluride Photo Festival
every fall.

KEITH LADZINSKI
For Keith Ladzinski, the pursuit of photography has been an
insatiable passion since 1995. Documenting an experience from
behind the camera that can often only be found through adventurous
travel, volatile weather conditions, long difficult days, and the
friends you rely on in sketchy situations to simply get on
location. It's a culmination and a full package, one that has been
deeply rewarding and unforgettable. To create images that make an
impression, capture a fleeting moment, and bring the viewer on
location in still frames. Keith Ladzinski is a globally published
adventure sports and environmental portrait photographer. Chasing
light has kept Keith waiting days on end for the sun to break for a
photo, and at other times packing in over 100 pounds of location
lighting equipment through knee deep snow to get the envisioned
shot. An award winning photographer, Keith's photography has been
praised by American Photo, PDN, and the International Library of
Photography. The British Journal of Photography named Ladzinski to
be among the top four adventure photographers in the world. Keith's
editorial work has appeared on the front page of the New York
Times, National Geographic Adventure, Discover Magazine, Men's
Journal, Outside Magazine, Runner's World, ESPN, with photos
appearing on over 50 covers. In 2008 Keith was asked to join the
faculty as a workshop instructor at Rich Clarkson and associates
Adventure Photography and Sports Photography Workshops. His
environmental portraits have earned him a monthly column in Rock
and Ice magazine profiling the colorful personalities and legends
of the rock-climbing world.
