Norwegian by birth, Morten came to Vancouver in 2002 to pursue a career in whatever fit his fancy. A philosopher by education he’s worn many hats, from professional politician to jeweller to TV producer to published writer. Right now his title is Creative Director of Pink & Yellow Media, but his true passion lies in trying to capture and communicate emotion through media; and for that the camera is a great tool.  The Vancouver Photo Marathon is Morten’s brainchild though with the addition of the rest of the team it has grown into so much more.

Cynthia Griffiths is a photographer for Canada’s largest gaming news website, shogungamer.com. She is a self declared nerd, lover of all things Star Wars and Superhero related, and emphatically surrounds herself with colour. Her passion for photography started at an early age, when her dad first introduced her to his Olympus OM-1. She spent her high school years elbow-deep in darkroom chemicals, printing her own pictures, and developing her own negatives. She specializes in ridiculous ideas, colourful schemes, passionate brainstorming, and generally being silly.
