Irene Yee (she/her)

A successful outdoor sports and adventure photographer currently based in Nevada, Irene Yee has broken the mold of traditional rock-climbing photography.  She illustrates the more collegiate and enjoyable aspects of a sport that’s historically dominated by the attainment of feats – presenting an inclusive hobby where people enjoy each other’s company in the great outdoors.

Irene is an enthusiastic speaker and educator whose work focuses on uplifting women, BIPOC, and LGBTQIA2+ communities, making all people feel welcome and engaged. She also teaches climbing photography in hands-on seminars.

With a catalog of rebellious images showcasing unique angles and creative framing, she’s garnered an impressive client list, including The North Face, Marmot, Outdoor Research, Mountain Hardware, and the Honnold Foundation. With a keen eye for outdoor storytelling, Irene has been widely published in titles including Climbing magazine, Alpinist, and Outside, as well as being granted the coveted position of contributing to @natgeoadventure.
