Sam Erickson

Photographer
Los Angeles

Born and raised in Montana, Sam spent his childhood in the mountains. Compelled by a desire to make snowboard videos of his friends- Sam figured out how to use a camera.

Starting out in film & photography, Sam cut his teeth photographing and filming skiing, snowboarding, biking, and skateboarding. Ultimately, his DIY education and productions developed into a formal education and professional career.

With an acute sense for creating striking imagery and visual storytelling, Sam has translated the skills and sensibilities he developed in documenting the action sports world into a commercial career with clients such as Nike, Arri, Universal Music Group, Chase Bank, Burger King, Capitol Records, and Reebok, as well as featured in publications such as: Artforum, The New York Times, Hypebeast, Frieze, Complex, Gagsosian, GQ, and Rolling Stone.
