He has photographed international ad campaigns for clients such as Thule, Trek Bikes, Gibson Guitars, and Wild Turkey Bourbon.For nearly two decades, he worked on a portrait series of early-to-mid 20th Century mountain climbing legends. The result is the recently published 'The Climbers', a collection of sixty black-and-white photographs that document these rugged individualists, including the likes of Royal Robbins, Reinhold Messner, Yvon Chouinard, and Riccardo Cassin. Between the 1920s and 1970s, these determined men and women used primitive gear along with their considerable wits, talent, and fortitude to tackle unscaled peaks around the world. In these images, Herrington has captured their humanity, obsession, intellect, and frailty.The book, published in October 2017, won the Grand Prize at the 2017 Banff Book Awards, as well as the Mountaineering History Award. www.theclimbersbook.comHerrington co-produced the Jerry Lee Lewis episode for the HBO/Cinemax series ‘Mike Judge Presents: Tales from the Tour Bus’ that premiered September 2017.Herrington’s photography has been exhibited in solo and group gallery shows in New York City, Los Angeles, Washington DC, Nashville, Milwaukee, and Charlotte, and is in numerous private collections.
