Thomas Stöckli was born in 1978 on a farm out in the countryside of Switzerland. A snowboarder since `92 and documenting it since `01, he soon started to travel the world chasing for snow. Called “Creager“ by his friends, Thomas is currently living in Zurich, Switzerland and working everywhere in between the Alps, the Rocky Mountains and the Andes for clients like Red Bull, Vans, eleven or Pleasure Magazine. His focusses lie in action, landscape and people-photography.
