An experienced world traveler and photographer, Jonathan has captured photos in more than 75 countries. His method of photography is one of quiet intention… absorbing and capturing the essence of his surrounding environment. Rather than searching for his subject—whether people, cultures, or natural surroundings—he quietly observes. “My best photos have come not from the motion of seeking a photo, but from finding the right spot to wait… preparing for the shot to come to me.” Jonathan Irish is the program director for Expeditions at the National Geographic Society headquarters in Washington DC.
