John Evans has been at the helm of Petzl America's marketing since 1999. An avid lifelong shooter (starting in the first grade with a Kodak Instamatic), his almost two decade marketing career has given him great insight into the photographic arts. Shooting at a professional level since 2001, John's work is focused on the hard-to-capture world of climbing and other adventure sports like canyoneering. His photos have been published in Rock and Ice, Climbing, Urban Climber, Gripped, Klettern, Grimper, REI, Mountain Gear and dozens of other publications.
