Joe Klementovich is a freelance photographer happiest near any kind of water. Not too many years into an engineering career he realized he would rather be on the bow of boat or knee deep in a mountain stream than sitting in a cubicle, so dove into photography. Over the years he has worked for The New York Times, Wall Street Journal, Adventure Journal and even The Fly Fish Journal on occasion…. Joe keeps his work interesting by taking on projects that run the gambit from Atlantic salmon restoration in Maine to centuries old barns being restored and rebuilt, with a fair bit of chasing fins out on the water. You can find him living in the mountains of New Hampshire not far from a clear cold Brook Trout stream.  

Thibaud Durand is an independent French photographer, videographer, and documentary filmmaker. His work is driven by discovery: landscapes, cultures, wildlife, and the many stories the world offers to those who take the time to truly observe it. Through image-making, he seeks to create honest, human-centered stories rooted in reality.

Following a year-and-a-half journey around the world, he released a documentary series on his YouTube channel retracing that adventure as closely to real life as possible. The project reflects his desire to show travel for what it truly is: intense, beautiful, unpredictable, sometimes difficult, and deeply transformative.

Today, his work focuses on adventure, wildlife, and meaningful human stories. Whether through photography or documentary filmmaking, his intention remains the same: to tell authentic stories that convey real emotion and inspire others to explore what truly calls to them.

Miguel spends his free time capturing the beauty of the wild side of nature. He specialized in wildlife photography mainly in Kenya, but his real passion is capturing the elusive behaviour of the Iberian lynx in his country of origin, Spain. “My passion for wildlife began long before I even picked up a camera,” he explains. “Being surrounded by nature, observing animal behavior while getting immersed into their habitat, it’s where I’ve always felt most alive. Over time, photography became the perfect way to preserve and share those powerful moments with others. When working with the unpredictable nature of wild animals, relying on the best and most versatile equipment is essential.”

Josh Mills is a UK based wildlife photographer known online as @trickyshwapix.
