An extraordinary celebration of diversity and belonging in the outdoors

• Full-color photography and profiles of 101 unique individuals from hikers to climbers, beekeepers to park rangers
• 250-plus portrait and action photos feature a wide range of ages, ethnicities, body sizes, sexualities, gender identities, and physical abilities
• Profiles and first-person accounts describe life-changing connections with nature

Featuring the elevated, intimate art of photographer Tommy Corey, All Humans Outside is a reflective look at the varied ways people's lives are forever changed by nature through sustainability and conservation work, outdoor sports and recreation, community building, and more. Corey traveled across the United States and conducted more than two hundred interviews to chronicle these diverse experiences, sharing them through documentary-style photography and both first-person and third-person stories.

Subjects include backcountry horse rider Gillian Larson, Triple Crowner and sponsored athlete Jack Jones, self-described "seminomadic van-dwelling grandma" Pacific Crest Trail hiker Karen DeSousa, Filipinx immigrant and park ranger Francis Eymard Mendoza, adaptive athlete Annijke Wade, New York Hunters of Color ambassador Brandon Dale, bestselling author and runner Mirna Valerio, and many more. All Humans Outside is a stunning collection of stories in which everyone can find inspiration.

Review Quotes

Corey makes the collection feel personal, popping in through sidebars to introduce some of the people whose stories he includes. Parallels can be drawn with the "Humans of New York" project, but with an extra edge of empowerment and joyfulness that come from his commitment to fostering self-worth across the widest reach of diversity.--Meg Olson "Mount Baker Experience"
