Conservation photography is creating images that would effect change and ensuring that those images do effect change. I have got to make sure that the images get to the people they speak too. You can never win a conservation fight without photography because people have got to see what your talking about. Through photography we are able to shine a light on the hidden things that are eating up our community and the world around us.
Nature Photography will show a beautiful antelope running in the savannah but conservation photography will show the dangers awaiting this antelope. When I see an elephant killed I don’t stop to griff the elephant.

My job is to make images that stop us from killing more elephant and other species. As it it said a picture speaks 1000 word.
As a photographer I have got to communicate through my lens and show the world the hidden dangers facing the conservation fight. It’s the only stone I can add to the conservation fight.
