Kynan Tait Takes Photographs of Motorcycles, Justin Timberlake, and Mac Demarco's Balls

Born and raised on Vancouver Island, Kynan Tait never seems to be stuck in his backyard. Jammed on the back of his parents Harley at a young age, he was roadbound as soon as he could walk. I suppose that helps with his adventures.

Born and raised on Vancouver Island, Kynan Tait never seems to be stuck in his backyard. Jammed on the back of his parents Harley at a young age, he was roadbound as soon as he could walk. I suppose that helps with his adventures, such as his motorcycle trips through America and Mexico alongside Emerica's Wide Ride—a feat that makes the most hardened skate nerd jealous. When he's off his bike, he takes casual photographs of moments unspoiled by intrusive cameras or surplus photo gear, instead opting to let moments play out and work from there. Whether it's working in the northern BC oil patch and shooting a few quiet landscapes, or on the side of the American highway with a few beers, Kynan's photographs (and life, for that matter) are enviable to anyone seeking that elusive freedom. His work doesn't require captions to fix the context—simple photographs shot as naturally as possible. Based on our most recent chat, it seems like India by motorbike is next on the agenda. A better place is hard to find.
