Finnegan is a 22 year old photographer from Brisbane, who was earlier convinced that all the creative genes had been snatched up by a sibling. “My sister was always the artistic one in the family, so I was convinced I’d never have anything to do with the creative industry until I first started doing video editing in high school when I was 15. That lead to an interest in filming and then a natural progression to photography,” he says.
One year later, Finnegan discovered another passion in snowboarding, and has since combined it with photography in his young yet adventure-filled career. He’s travelled the world with some of the biggest athletes and brands in the game, and shows it all in this snowbound edition of Frames.
But while most of the images here have been taken in sub-zero temperatures, he does give little glimpses of sunshine – heralding to his ambition to move outside of the sport. “I’m always up for a different challenge, so I hope to move into more surf and fashion photography in the coming years,” he explains.
