Gus Hurst - Extreme Sport Photos
Extreme sport photography
I have been shooting extreme sport photographs for over 10 years, initially as a ski photographer and snowboard photographer in the French Alps. Since then, my interest in extreme sports has diversified to paragliding, hang gliding, kite surfing, kite buggying, kite ATB, BASE jumping, skydiving, mountain biking and more recently snow kiting - a relatively new and dynamic extreme sport, encompassing both kite skiing and kite snowboarding. My work in action sports has taken me all over the world, action photography been the ultimate quest. I have accumulated a broad experience in lifestyle, action and adventure shoots. If you want to see some really explosive imagery, have a look around in the galleries section. The images in the galleries can be purchased under license for commercial purposes or as exclusive prints upon request. If you do not see the exact image you require, please contact me for more examples.
If you have ideas you need to turn into powerful images, email or call to discuss, and I will gladly quote for a commission.
Commercial photography
Its not all been action and adventure - Whilst living in hometown Leeds, I set up a commercial photography business, gaining an extensive portfolio of international clients. Hotel Hermitage in Monaco, Lexus, Asda Wal Mart, Bradford Bulls Rugby team, these are just a few of the weird and wonderful commissions I secured, whilst working in the PR world. Images from the library have been published in advertising and books, and as a talented journalist, I have written accompanying features to complement images for many magazines and companies worldwide. For examples of this work and a full client list, see clients page.
