Darcy Bacha grew up in Philadelphia and made the trip out to the Northwest about five years ago with his mom where they settled down in Welches, Oregon at the base of Mt. Hood. Darcy has been shooting since he can remember, but recently realized it was the direction he wanted to take with his life and started school at Mt.Hood Community College where he studied photography for 3 years. After graduating he quickly found a job working as staff photographer for Windells Camp. Windells opened up a lot of opportunities for him, and he's now working with several different companies doing various freelance jobs. He has done work for Dakine Gloves, Snowboard Magazine, Transworld Magazine, Bataleon Snowboards, Rome Snowboards, Amplid Skis and Snowboards, Mervin Manufacturing, Imperial Motion Clothing, Red Bull, YoBeat.com, and Timberline Lodge at Mt.Hood. This coming winter he'll be traveling around North America shooting freelance and touring with Cricket Campus Rail Jam.
