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.

One Month Two - Electric Boogaloo
This week as a midweek treat I’m bringing back a previous guest, Ali O’Keefe. Ali continues to play with old cameras on her One Month, Two Cameras channel, but it’s one of her newer acquisitions that I wanted to talk to her about. The conversation picks up as we both agree that we’re only getting better with age.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.

Episode 88 - Ray Di Pietro
Ray Di Pietro is a working photojournalist based in Nashville. From political candidates to protests, street scenes to t-shirts he shoots it all. I found him almost by accident when searching on Instagram and was struck by his style and felt like we’d get on. I was proved right by this wonderful conversation which I think you’ll all enjoy and which starts and finishes with Ray’s attire which compliments the way he shows up every day.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.

The Ephemeral Haggis with Stasia Schmidt
I asked Stasia if she would be up for speaking with me about her book, Ephemerality, for a little midweek episode this week. She’s fantastic company so the excuse to get her on a call seemed like a good one. Of course, because it’s me, we talk the book but we also talk about future guest Krystle Wright, my one camera rule, sensor cleaning, Irn-Bru and haggis.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.

Nitrate Fox is a wet plate portrait photographer who has made a name for herself shooting incredible hand crafted tintypes and most recently has released a book of Roller Derby players shot all over the USA.

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.
