Work: Race documentation of the Ultra Gobi 400km in the Gobi Desert, China

Bryon Powell on his way to winning the 2024 Ultra Gobi 400km

Capturing the 2024 Ultra Gobi 400km was an unforgettable experience, documenting one of the world’s toughest endurance challenges in the heart of the Gobi Desert. Over the course of several days, we followed the athletes through the vast landscapes of the Gobi Desert, capturing the grit, determination, and solitude of this unique challenge. From the early morning starts to the deep silence of the desert night, our goal was to translate the raw essence of this extreme adventure into compelling visuals.
