View Finders Photography Podcast

Jonathan Chritchley, is one of the foremost fine art photographers in the world today. His work is instantly recognisable and can be found in exhibitions, galleries, magazines, books, and fine art collections around the world. His regular clients include Ralph Lauren, Ritz Carlton and Vogue Magazine. Jonathan also speaks and presents his work at photography and sailing events worldwide, and he is the founder and owner of Capture Earth and Ocean Capture, two companies specialising in luxury photography workshops & tours.

Jonathan was named one of the 'Top 100 Photographers of All Time' by both the UK's Sunday Times newspaper and Professional Photographer Magazine. His first book, SILVER, was published in 2014, and in 2016 he was made a Fellow of the Royal Geographical Society (FRGS).
