One of my highlights at this year’s @seattleartfair was hearing Jonathan Kingston and Ricky Qi share the stories behind their @natgeo assignments. Their conversation was a beautiful reminder that photography isn’t just about the image, it’s about the journey, the preparation, the perspective, and the privilege of experiencing a place with intention. 💝📸

It was so nice to meet Jonathan Kingston, a National Geographic photographer, at the Seattle Art Fair. As a kid, I watched a lot of documentaries from National Geographic, Animal Planet, and many other travel and nature shows. But National Geographic was always my favorite because of its scientific approach to storytelling. It was such a pleasure to meet someone in person who inspires people to explore the world, experience different cultures, and appreciate the beauty of nature through photography. #SeattleArtFair #NationalGeographic #TravelInspiration #Photography #ExploreTheWorld P.S.
