Hey, my name is Aaron Bowles. I’m 19 years young and from Aptos, California. I started taking photos back in 2013 after a bad mountain biking crash. I knew I couldn’t keep getting hurt, but I knew I wanted to stay involved in the action sports world. I'm lucky enough to have a good friend who is a top-ranked amateur in motocross, so I’ve been traveling around with him from race to race, meeting new people along the way. I’m currently working for our local paper as a sports photographer, while going to school. The adrenaline I get from being up close with these fast-moving objects is insane! I love what I do, and I’m glad to have such a rad company behind me supporting me! Follow me through my career of photography. You won’t be disappointed!

Location: Aptos, CA

Photography: Lifestyle, action sports

Favorite Gear: My favorite lens in my bag will definitely have to be my 70-200 F2.8.

Words of wisdom: “When people ask me what equipment I use – I tell them my eyes.”
