| Aaron shooting at Tailgate Alaska
Gotthardt is from the great state of Alaska and
has been riding in the Chugach Mountains for over 20 years. Finding a
niche in photography at an early age, combined with a love of
snowboarding, has introduced him to amazing people and places throughout
the world.

When we met Aaron at Tailgate Alaska
2012, he was all smiles and positive energy. His love of snow and of riding with friends brought him to Valdez for the epic freeride event, which is known for connecting like-minded snowboarders in an environment of life-changing big mountain riding.
An avid professional photographer, Aaron has shot photos for Flow Snowboard Team's Mike Basich and Shin Biyajima, as well as for Avalon7 founder Rob Kingwell. In 2012
he photographed Tailgate Alaska for Snowboard Magazine. He has been on
Tailgate Alaska's media team for two years.
