概要

On this episode of The Life of Phys Podcast, Tyson Martin sits down with Ben Horton, a National Geographic Explorer, photographer, and director whose career has been built on one core belief, a photograph can change the world.With over 16 years working with National Geographic, Ben has documented stories across Mongolia, Nepal, Thailand, China, the Canadian Arctic, Haiti, and coastlines throughout the Pacific and Central America. His work sits at the intersection of adventure photography, conservation, and high-level commercial production, making him one of the most versatile storytellers working today.But what truly sets Ben apart is impact.Early in his career, Ben led a powerful photojournalism investigation on Cocos Island, exposing illegal shark poaching operations and tracing the trade across international markets. That work was presented to the President of Costa Rica and directly contributed to the expansion of two national parks and the protection of critical marine ecosystems.From there, his journey has taken him into some of the most extreme environments on earth, including a 60-day dogsled expedition across Ellesmere Island with polar explorer Will Steger, documenting climate change in the Arctic.Ben’s work spans multiple worlds.From photographing the search for Genghis Khan’s tomb in Mongolia, to hosting National Geographic’s Extreme China, to producing large-scale commercial campaigns like the 2025 Sports Illustrated Swimsuit Issue featuring Olympic and professional athletes. Ben's ability to move between documentary, adventure, and commercial storytelling is unmatched.Now based between Park City, Utah and Baja California Sur, Ben continues to explore and document the world through both client work and personal projects, including his fine art book Baja Bound and his latest exhibition, The Art of the Unseen.In this conversation we talk about:​What it takes to build a career with National Geographic• Using photography as a tool for real-world conservation impact• Working in extreme environments and high-risk situations• Balancing commercial work with meaningful storytelling• Why the best photographs come from full immersion in the momentBen Horton’s work is a reminder that photography is not just about capturing what we see, it is about stepping into the story and creating images that matter.This is a conversation about adventure, purpose, and the responsibility that comes with holding a camera in places that matter.Support The Photography Heals Your SoulHelp Us Reach Our 30K Goal Visit Ben:Instagram: @benhortonphotoWeb: www.benhorton.bizBuy Baja BoundVisit The Show: Instagram: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠@life.of.phys⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Threads: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠@life.of.phys⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠YouTube: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠@lifeofphys⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Web: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠www.thelifeofphys.com⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Support The Show:⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Donate⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Patreon⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Merch ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Store⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Affiliate Links
