Etienne Merel

Hailing from Grenoble, France, Etienne is the man behind the lens of our award-winning ski productions, from “THIS IS HOME”, to “ROOTS” and everything in between. He started out as a rider on the team before turning his talents to shooting, beginning with the first ‘We Are The Faction Collective’ series in 2014. Fast forward to today and Etienne has carved out a reputation as one of the best filmmakers in the industry. He spends most of his time in the mountains, whether filming, skiing, climbing, or soaring above summits on his paraglider.
