There is a clear difference in fitting something into your life as a hobby and letting that something shape your life. Those on the latter side of that distinction are who Colorado-based photographer, skateboarder and snowboarder Matty Alberts has set out to connect with and document. He calls it the LIFERS Project, and he’s been at it for a few years now.

Recently, Matty teamed up with Cadillac to create the Seasons Collection which, through multiple mediums and across four seasons, will chronicle the experiences of those letting their passions dictate their lives. The third episode in the series takes place in Jackson, Wyoming. Jacob Urban, owner of Jackson Hole Outdoor Leadership Institute, Willie McMillon, owner of Bluebird Wax, snowboarder, Mark Carter, and skier, Griffin Post offer their take on what it means to be a LIFER.
