Tod Bloxham
is an outdoor adventurist who uses photography as a way to share with others
the surreal and magical outdoor wonders he has grown to love. Having spent
most of his life in pursuit of long trails, remote mountain peaks, and rugged
backcountry destinations, Tod's images offer a unique perspective seldom
seen by others.
Born
and raised in Washington State, Tod had lugged his cameras over 500 miles
of North Cascades trails and backcountry by the early age of 18; little
did he know that these trips and early photographs would turn into a lifetime
passion. Upon graduating from high school Tod set out to hike and photograph
the Pacific Crest Trail from Canada to Mexico. 146 days, 2,700 miles and
700 photographs later Tod became the youngest person to solo thru-hike
the Pacific Crest Trail. Ever since that remarkable trip, Tod's passion
for the outdoors and outdoor photography has exploded.
While
working in the specialty outdoor industry Tod continued to hone his photography
skills. Hundreds of days and nights were spent in the remote reaches of
the Washington North Cascades, Coast Mountains of Canada, the Rockies,
the Sierra Nevada, and the deep canyons of the Snake and Colorado Rivers.
While in these remote reaches Tod was able to capture unique images of
climbing, hiking, backcountry skiing, and rafting in seasons and weather
ranging from beautiful summer sunsets to harsh winter storms.
After
years of photographing outdoor scenery and adventure, thousands of images
on file, and many images commercially published, Tod established Bloxham
Photography in January of 2001. As of 2011, Bloxham Photography has over
10,000 images on file, 10% of which are available online for stock photography.
Tod has continued to build his stock archives and now offers select Special
Edition Fine Art Images on his Bloxham Photography website. His pursuits
of outdoor adventure and photographs are never ending and simply put,
Tod will continue to create images he feels portray and deliver the emotion
of the moment. - "adventure.discovery.passion"
