Speaker – Rick Kent
As Rick shares images he’s made at sporting events around the globe, he’ll talk about his early life as an endurance athlete, then later in life as a professional photographer for some of the world’s greatest endurance events.
Rick will also speak about his adventures as a solo photographer traveling the world and give his reasons to avoid becoming a professional photographer.
About Rick Kent
Hailing from Houston, Texas, Rick spent his early years racing bicycles and competing in ultra endurance events. From running sub-3-hour marathons to literally racing across America on a bicycle in 8 days, Rick’s passion for pushing the limits is unparalleled.
The passion for endurance events led to photographing those events to capture the racers in new and interesting ways as a way to shine a light on the participants.
From the New York City Marathon to Hawaii’s Ultraman, Rick has photographed the world’s best ultra endurance athletes.
