2026 Chico Attendees SeriesPhotojournalist and entrepreneur Jeremy Garamond joins Michael Chovan-Dalton from the 2026 Chico Review to share his series on the Himba People of Namibia and we discuss his Save Reporter association that offers insurance for image professionals.https://www.garachone.com/https://www.instagram.com/garachone/Self-taught and an entrepreneur by conviction, I initially built my career in insurance by offering a new digital approach to brokerage. Over time, and following some profound personal experiences, I have placed people at the heart of my work. Travelling has shaped my outlook: first, the simple, genuine encounters of travelling alone, then the freedom of road trips in a glampervan. These experiences naturally drew me back to photography, an art to which my grandfather, the graphic designer Jacques Nathan-Garamond, had introduced me as a child. When the documentary War Photographer, dedicated to James Nachtwey, was released, it introduced me to the profession of photojournalism – specifically in war zones – and helped me grasp its true nature.I co-founded the Save Reporter association with Lorenzo Virgili. It offers image professionals insurance tailored to their day-to-day needs. Aware of the hardships of our profession and of how hard it is to get one's images seen, I created the first ERP designed for photographers.This podcast is sponsored by the Charcoal Book ClubBegin Building your dream photobook library today athttps://charcoalbookclub.comThe Chico Review is the country’s premier Photobook Retreat.
