As I'm always asked about the gear I use when out on location, I wanted to follow on from my last video (on photographing Polar Bears in Churchill) to give you a look inside the bag and kit I took with me up onto the ice!
Choosing the right gear can be a headache sometimes, especially if you are limited with weight and baggage sizes for airline travel, so in this video I wanted to discuss some of my key bits of kit for the shoot from my cameras to clothing!

For the trip out to Canada I worked alongside Churchill Wild with support from Travel Manitoba, staying at the Dymond Lake Ecolodge, one of three remote ecolodges on the Hudson Bay operated by the Churchill Wild team. From the lodge we headed out on guided walks to catch up with the bears, who are waiting for the seas Ice to form, so they can head out and hunt. The unique nature of the Churchill Wild experience is to get out foot and see Polar bears without the crowds! For more information about the trip they offer be sure to check the website! churchillwild.com

I throughly enjoyed making this video and it was with help from great partners in Churchill Wild, alongside Travel Manitoba www.travelmanitoba.com and VIA Rail Canada www.viarail.ca that it was all possible.
