PRESERVE THE PAST. PROTECT THE FUTURE
Photography has always been more than just aesthetics—it’s about capturing reality. This project is a return to the original purpose of photography: to immortalize what is at risk of being lost forever and preserving them in photo and video formats.
It's Puffin Time
The Mission is to photograph rare and endangered species before they vanish forever. The objective is simple: raise enough to join wildlife conservation teams to help share their stories of perseverance and hope. I am on a mission to create a photographic archive of our planet's natural history, places, and people. My recent expeditions include photographing penguins in Antarctica, humpback whales in Tahiti, golden eagles in Mongolia, and Atlantic puffins along Iceland’s rugged coastlines.
Roadmap

Masterclass
Wildlife Photography Masterclass: Using the expedition in November as a case study, I will create a masterclass on the essentials of wildlife photography. From understanding your subject, to mastering field techniques in remote places, to storytelling through images, and more. Two versions will be made: For Kids: Engaging lessons tailored to young learners, focused on the Sumatran Rhinos and how they can help save them. For Adults: A deeper dive into the techniques and ethics of wildlife photography, with a focus on conservation and impact.
