What Makes Roberto Gibbons Gomez's Expeditioners Brand Work?

Roberto Gibbons Gomez told Geek at Sea he is an entrepreneur who shoots, not a photographer with a brand attached. Asked for a film on a mountain he has never worked, he says yes and figures out the how later. With no formal training, that habit is how Jeep, Discovery, and Tourism Canada came to use The Expeditioners' footage. They do not wait on a pro athlete while a photographer stands by. The family takes the trip, children included, and he records moments they are already living. He does not storyboard. In a new place the day stays loose, and he said it does not feel like work.
