Jimmy's passion for travel, climbing, skiing, exploration, and photography has taken him on breakthrough expeditions around the globe. He is one of the most versatile and sought-after expedition photographers working today, as well as a sponsored climber and skier for the North Face Athlete Team. In the past decade, Jimmy has worked with some of the greatest adventurers, climbers, and skiers in the world, documenting everything from first ascents of unclimbed towers in the Karakoram to ski descents of the highest peaks in the Himalayas. Jimmy shoots for a wide range of commercial and editorial clients, including Outside. He was recently awarded the Rowell Award for his excellence and breadth in adventure photography and recognized by National Geographic as an Emerging Explorer.

When Jimmy is not on an expedition, he's at home in Idaho skiing in nearby Jackson Hole, WY, or surfing in Mexico.
