Creatives often feel tension between honoring what a brand wants and respecting the authentic story of a person or community. How can you do both?
Sabrina Claros is a photographer, videographer, and creative director based in LA, creating stories at the intersection of adventure, environmentalism, and outdoor equity. Her work aims to create change and inspire more people to connect with the outdoors and feel called to protect our natural resources, while reducing barriers to who has access in outdoor spaces.
Sabrina has worked with brands such as Teva, Tough Cutie, Bedrock Sandals, and many others. Her media work is largely informed by a background in social work, and continues to be grounded in grassroots community work.

The challenges of outsiders sharing the stories of underrepresented communities
Balancing authentic storytelling with a brand's needs

The need for a creative network to amplify diverse voices
