30 Sep Exposed Negative Podcast – #88 – Long term photographic projects w/ David Chancellor

In this episode we chat to David Chancellor, a National Geographic Photographer best known for his long term projects on conservation stories close to his heart and the dedication he put into them, often upping sticks and basing his entire life around his current body of work. We talk to David about his early start as a sports photographer and how his approach has changed over the years, his choice of cameras and how that also informs his approach.
