Our role was to capture the full atmosphere of the weekend through both photography and video content. We documented dynamic climbing moments on the wall, lifestyle imagery throughout the venue, and candid interactions between athletes, spectators, and organizers. Beyond the competition itself, we focused heavily on the human side of the event — the conversations between climbs, the energy around the waterfront venue, and the sense of connection shared throughout the festival.
The weekend brought together an incredibly talented group of adaptive athletes, including world champions, professional climbers, and some of the most accomplished paraclimbers in the sport. We had the opportunity to document athletes including Melissa Ruiz, Maureen (Mo) Beck, Ben Mayforth and many other impressive climbers throughout the event. Because athletes, organizers, and professional climbers spent the entire weekend together, we were also able to capture authentic interactions between the paraclimbers and some of the biggest names in climbing. Alongside the photography coverage, we also created a highlight reel for social media use, helping extend the energy of the event beyond the weekend itself while giving the Adaptive Climbing Group a polished collection of content for future storytelling and promotion.
