For years David McLain regularly shot feature-length assignments around the world for National Geographic Magazine. His job was to work with every kind of person under any kind of condition and create timeless images for a client with the highest visual standards on earth.

More recently he has become passionate about the shifting media landscape and new possibilities for visual communication. To embrace these changes, he co-founded Merge, a boutique company that combines timeless imagery and a fearless embrace of technology to create visual content for the web, broadcast, print, and beyond.
