COMMERCIAL ADVENTURE SPORTS PHOTOGRAPHY AND FILMMAKING

Phil Hill is a commercial sports photographer and filmmaker who captures the essence of adventure and challenge through motion, light, and location. His photographs celebrate human adventure and endurance in nature: those moments when effort, focus, and freedom come together. From rugged mountain tops to challenging ocean swims, and on to the quiet focus and mental endurance required for ultra-distance races, Phil captures what sports are all about. His photographs and films capture the real essence of adventure in motion. Phil believes that every commission is a mission to tell a story. It is one that inspires and deepens the links between sportspeople, brands, and their environments.

Phil believes that storytelling is integral to every image. Whether it is for advertising, documentaries, or lifestyle shoots, it is all about story-telling. His expertise as a commercial sports photographer gives him insight into both creative direction and performance, conveying genuine emotion in a visually interesting way. His collaborative skills have made it easier for him to work with athletes, outdoor brands, and other adventurers to produce images that not only market sport but capture the experience.

Phil’s work pulls you directly into the moment. You see what the athlete sees, feel the terrain beneath their feet, and experience the intensity of the environment as if you were there. With every project, Phil pushes the boundaries of sports photography, capturing movement, emotion, and atmosphere in a way that’s honest, dynamic, and alive.
