CITIZEN SCIENCE IN ANTARCTICA

Client: Signature Luxury Travel & Style Magazine

The Brief

I boarded the Viking Polaris for one of her first voyages to the White Continent and was commissioned to write and shoot a feature for Signature Luxury Travel & Style Magazine. Because Viking would supply interior shots of the ship, my brief was to capture the landscapes, wildlife and experiences off the ship.
