Mission Ranch x Pakt

The path less traveled

The true heart of the Pakt brand is found off the beaten path. James Barkman is a documentary and editorial photographer who has spent most of his career pushing the boundaries of where he can take the camera.

From active war zones to mountain summits, his stories and perspectives have been shaped by his time on the path less traveled.
