Doubtful Sound, New Zealand
Annie Griffiths Belt was one of the first female photographers to be hired at National Geographic
Belt documents her peripatetic life as a photographer and mother in a new book, A Camera, Two Kids, and a Camel: My Journey in Photographs
Belt, who was hired in 1978, and her husband, Don, a writer at the magazine, decided that their children should accompany Belt on most of her photo assignments
she has carried them to places around the globe during her 30-year career at the magazine
There were bear encounters at Yellowstone National Park and brushes with sharks in the Galapagos
She found that even in the most remote parts of the planet, her role as a mother opened doors
I've been in a culture that's divided by gender, to me it's a huge advantage
