Phil developed his taste for the outdoors in ‘La Belle Province’ of Quebec, before moving out to the Canadian west coast and hitch-hiking to Whistler every weekend to shoot his friends snowboarding. Fast forward more than a decade and Phil still lives something of a gipsy existence, travelling the globe with either a snow or surboard in tow, climbing rocks, sailing the Pacific Ocean and twisting the throttle on his snowmobile as he chases pros to photograph.
