Max Rive Bio
Max Rive (born and raised in the flat country of the Netherlands) is a landscape photographer and adventurer from the Netherlands.
He began exploring the high mountains of Switzerland at the age of 5. After exploring numerous hiking routes and running in front of his parents and brother, Max developed an immediate and deep passion for mountains, glaciers, and landscapes.
Max started taking photos in 2008 to document a mountain trip he took between studies. He also wanted to show his friends how cool the trip was. Soon, he evolved to a full landscape photographer and began sharing photos on the internet. In 2013, he bought his first DSLR camera (a Nikon D800e) and decided to go to Iceland for a solo hiking trip. Since then, there’s been no going back.
After almost losing his life in an airplane accident and witnessing the major earthquake in April 2015, Max continued traveling the world. He’s been to many countries including Chile, Argentina, Greenland, Sweden, Scotland, Norway and New Zealand. In 2017, he was awarded the International Landscape Photographer of the Year.
