My guest today is Krystle Wright. Krystle is an award winning Australian photographer who has traveled the world climbing, base jumping and storm chasing to make some truly incredible images. I discovered her through the National Geographic series Photographer. If you’ve not seen it, I can highly recommend it, it’s an incredible series filled with folks making great work. Krystle’s episode is my favourite so I contacted her to see if I could get her to come onto the show. As you’ll hear, her path hasn’t always been an easy one. This is a frank conversation with Krystle, I hope you enjoy it.
More about this show:
A camera is just a tool but spend enough time with photographers and you’ll see them go misty eyed when they talk about their first camera or a small fast prime that they had in their youth. Prime Lenses is a series of interviews with photographers talking about their photography by way of three lenses that mean a lot to them. These can be interchangeable, attached to a camera, integrated into a gadget, I’m interested in the sometimes complex relationship we have with the tools we choose, why they can mean so much and how they make us feel.
