Adam Weist
Adam is an adventure and travel photographer specializing in documenting diverse international cultures and dramatic outdoor landscapes. Based at 8000’ in the mountains outside Boulder, Colorado, Adam's passion for photography has taken him across the globe. Since attending NYU to study Economics, he's also lived and worked in SF and LA, focusing on developing a career in photography outside of his day jobs in the finance and tech industries.
Over the past decade, Adam's travels have taken him to 39 of America’s 63 national parks, 45 countries, and nearly every US state. While much of his time has been spent photographing California’s High Sierra and other coastal and mountainous regions of the American West, he's also had the opportunity to explore and photograph the deserts of Egypt & Tunisia, the jungles of Vietnam and Central America, the bustling megacities of India, Alaska’s remote Brooks Range, the Icelandic highlands, and the alpine landscapes of the Peruvian Andes and Patagonia. Adam draws inspiration from visiting dramatic, remote locations and fully immersing himself in local cultures, capturing images meant to inspire viewers to get out of their comfort zones, explore, and create a unique experience for themselves.
Adam hopes to continue working with brands that focus on sustainability and actively seek to conserve, expand, and advocate for our natural places. Please reach out via the contact info below if you are interested in purchasing a print, licensing images, or telling a story together.
