Megan McJames carved her own path in her alpine ski racing career, culminating in three Olympic performances. Her newest path into motherhood takes the values she found in her athletic career and applies them to that of being a parent — notably, doing things her own way. Trails Still Blazing explores the balance between women as caregivers and women as adventurers and, in doing so, hopes to inspire more women to feel confident following their passions, wherever they may lead.
Iz La Motte is an adventure photographer and documentary filmmaker who splits her time between Utah’s Wasatch Range and the serene green spaces that surround her off-grid cabin in the woods of Vermont.
She has developed her craft into one that focuses on the human story and its relation to the world. Iz believes that everyone has a story to tell. Her passion lies in working with individuals and brands to tell their own impactful stories in a way that feels true to them.
Her work can be seen in print publications, throughout the film festival circuit, and in marketing campaigns across the outdoor industry.
