AWARD-WINNING<br />
ADVENTURER JODY<br />
MACDONALD EXPLAINS<br />
WHY THE FIRST STEP<br />
TOWARDS MAKING WAVES IS<br />
PHOTOGRAPHING THEM<br />
WORDS: RICHARD ALDHOUS<br />
When it comes to capturing our expansive oceans,<br />
diverse rivers and intense arrays of marine life, it<br />
helps to have a vested interest in everything sub-aqua.<br />
For Jody MacDonald, the commitment is three-fold – firstly,<br />
the award-winning photographer runs a business that offers<br />
kiteboarding exhibitions around the world by catamaran. Add<br />
to that a passion for the seas, discovered as a child on a<br />
family holiday to the Maldives; and by the time you get to the<br />
Idaho-born adventurer’s extensive list of ocean photography<br />
awards, you might question whether she need set foot on dry<br />
land again. The answer, of course, is yes… to take more photos!<br />
“Underwater photography has always been a real thrill of mine,<br />
but in truth, the perfect shot can happen at any place, any<br />
time, and I wouldn’t ever restrict myself to one medium,” says<br />
Jody, who has visited 90 different countries, paraglided over<br />
the Himalayas,€and built a portfolio of projects that reflect a<br />
passion for social change and environmental preservation as<br />
much as they satisfy her own aims to explore and adventure.<br />
“It is a thrill and a pleasure to be able to travel, to document<br />
everything through photography, of any kind, and I can’t think<br />
of a time when I won’t do this… I love it so much.”<br />
