Fat Tire Ballerinas Shoot-GBP Yukon Photographer

Some of you may remember our GBP Adventure Pants Extravaganza contest we had a few months back where we had people submit stories of their favourite Yukon adventure activity to do with their family/friends...well it turns out there's a lot of people wearing adventure pants around here, and so the job of picking a winner turned out to be a lot harder than we thought...

In the end, we decided to go with the group who made us laugh out loud and left us thinking "yup that's gonna be a fun one to shoot..." And I don't mean to brag, but I think we made a great choice...

So a couple weekends ago when the weather was lovely, we bundled up on a Sunday morning and headed out to do a shoot with the winners, 'The Fat Tire Ballerinas'.  This is a group of girls who love fat tire bikes and head out in these cold Yukon winters year after year.

These are exactly the types of shoots we love here at GBP...getting a group of hilarious people together, all coming from different backgrounds, careers, etc. over their crazy love of something...in this case, a sport where you get decked out in full gear, and then go ripping down a slippery, snow covered hill on two wheels....these ladies were both badass, and awesome in every way!

So thanks again to all of the Fat Tire Ballerinas who made their way out on an early (for some of them, TOO early) shoot and who have now left us both scheming how we can get our hands on a pair of those bikes...it looks too rad to pass up...
