About

Sam Brockway is a freelance photographer specializing in travel and outdoor photography. He began sharing his work as a hobby, but after features from Weather.com and Travel Nevada, he started pursuing his passion of photography professionally.

Sam grew up in the diminutive mountain town of Chester, California, where he spent his childhood roaming the forest and exploring Lassen National Park. He earned a B.S. in Environmental Studies from UC Santa Barbara, and attended the University of Washington for graduate work in Public Administration and Marine and Environmental Affairs. His lifelong personal and academic respect for wilderness areas is evident in his authentic depictions of people and products engaging with the outdoors.

Through a growing social media presence, Sam has been able to work with a number of large outdoor gear and apparel companies, and is currently representing 500px as a Brand Ambassador.
