Krystle Wright is an adventure photographer, cinematographer, and director from Australia. To Krystle, the world has no boundaries, and she will do whatever it takes to shoot from her unique perspective— whether that means hanging from remote, sketchy cliff edges, swimming through jagged, unexplored canyons, or trudging for days through gnarly weather to chase storms, often wearing flip flops. In 2023, she was the overall winner of the RedBull illume award in addition to winning the innovation category. National Geographic lists Krystle as one of the leading female adventure photographers who is pushing the limits in the industry. Krystle has the contagious stoke of a grommet, especially when the weather conditions get rough. In this episode, we delve into her early nature influences growing up in Queensland, her episode of the NatGeo Photographer series, chasing tornadoes, the making of her Redbull illume winning photograph, and her nature inspired creative process. And Krsytle’s never afraid to bring it real. We talked about the shadowy sides of being a creator in this age of often storyless and commodified digital image proliferation.Enjoy the ride,JeffEpisode LinksEpisode LinksKrystle Wright Website@krystlejwright on InstagramPhotographer series on NatGeo (watch Krystle chase tornadoes here!)RedBull Illume AwardsLeica short film on Krystle WrightTales by Lightseries on NetflixConnect with Nature JunkieIf anything in this episode was helpful or stoked you out, please hit the share button and tell a friend, leave an awesome review, or comment so we can bend the algorithms toward nature.
