Arriving in the Arlberg mountains in Austria for the first time on an assignment, I was so excited to find an environment of such beauty and rich visual choice. I was inspired to return many times during all seasons and build a collection of photographs that would echo my experience of being there. Many of these photographs are on permanent dispaly at the Aurelio Hotel in Lech and are published in a book Above the Clouds available to purchase here
Of all the places I’ve visited the Arlberg is, without doubt, one of my favourites. The sense of freedom and exhilaration I experience when I arrive there is immeasurable; there’s no better environment to work in. The villages have managed to retain a traditional charm that is lost in so many resorts and the people are untiringly warm and welcoming.
