David duChemin :: Matt Brandon

David duChemin has been telling stories with his camera for over twenty years. It started with a Voigtlander rangefinder purchased at a garage sale and just never ended. His dream in highschool was to shoot for National Geographic so he traded an awkward social life for long hours in a darkroom. National Geographic never called and he went off to Theology College and emerged five years later to pursue a career in comedy. Go figure.

Now a full-time humanitarian and travel photographer David splits his year between his home in Vancouver and international assignments for organizations like World Vision. David has shot in a fantastic variety of places - from Ethiopia to Mongolia to Congo to Nepal and places in between. David is on staff with the Travel Photographers Network.
