Name: Mike Yoshida

Age: 30

Hometown: Homer, Alaska

Bio: I grew up loving photography, and have always been a really visual person. Picking up a camera was really exciting for me at a young age, and I guess I really just lucked out being in the right place at the right time. I’ve been shooting professionally for the past 10 years, and haven’t looked back since.

Where: Whistler, British Columbia

Why: This is my favorite peak in Whistler. It’s named Mount Fee, and it’s iconic because of its skinny spire that shoots into the sky.

What the image was shot with: Canon Mark 3. I believe I shot this with a shutter speed of a 500th of a second and an aperture at 8.0

Magazine affiliation: Associate photo editor of Snowboarder magazine
