Eva is a photographer, cinematographer and certified drone pilot. Driven by a passion to capture images and tell stories that inspire inquiry into our own humanity with deep curiosity, critical thinking and heart, she brings a photojournalistic soul to commercial, editorial, and documentary projects.

Originally from New York, Eva was introduced to photography early on and studied Cultural Anthropology. After university, she lived and worked in South Asia for eight years. Her work started as a photographer and then pivoted to program director managing several projects focusing on women’s health, food security, regenerative agriculture and then as Country Director for an International NGO in Nepal, focused on child protection (deinstitutionalization and reunification of displaced and trafficked children). Photography remained a passion, though not a focus. Being immersed in the field really emphasized for Eva the importance of spending time to build genuine relationships with trust, not only for truly impactful and effective program work but for insightful and authentic visual storytelling.

Upon returning to North America in 2014, she spent a year in Colorado where she continued working in the field of International development as Director of Development for Edge of Seven, where she worked on intervention strategy for Nepal after the massive earthquake in 2015, and spent time in Rwanda and Kenya for establishing local partner relationships and project assessments. During this time based in Colorado, Eva rekindled her childhood love for skiing, discovered climbing, and made the decision to transition from development work back into photography.

She made her way to interior Alaska and immediately felt at home with the simple dry-cabin lifestyle on the edge of pure wilderness in the small, remote community of Denali. For 4 years she worked there as an instructional photography guide along the boundary of Denali National Park in the summer and spent the winters skiing and learning about cold-weather exploration. A desire to build more skills in technical climbing and skiing brought Eva to the Canadian Rockies and she is now based out of Golden, British Columbia, Canada, living on the ancestral lands of the Ktunaxa, Stoney, Métis and Secwépemc.

Eva’s heart is most fulfilled by long, remote expeditions, where time immersed in challenging environments encourages greater self-awareness, fosters connection and necessitates adept risk management, mindful communication and nuanced decision-making. When in the field, Eva immerses herself as an engaged listener and insightful interviewer, building deep connections with the individuals and communities she documents.

She continues to hone her skills not only in photography and cinematography, but also in climbing, alpinism, mountaineering and skiing to continue building her competence managing herself and her equipment in complex terrain. She is able to work on her own or as part of a larger team.

In 2021, she completed the first all-female ascent of Mt. Lucania in the Yukon, and as an ambassador with Arc’teryx Alberta, Eva has been helping to facilitate access to climbing initiatives that address barriers to the sport.

Currently, Eva is in post production on a Documentary filmed in Northwest Greenland that focuses on the relationship between Polar Explorers, Inuit Hunters and Greenlandic Sled Dogs.

Eva holds a Canadian Avalanche Association Professional Operations Level 1 certificate as well as NUOFA-3 medic training with Advanced Protocols.
