Cristina Mittermeier Posted April 10 Share Posted April 10 What separates a nature photograph from a conservation photograph? How do you make an impact with images? This is my favorite question. A nature photographer is merely documenting nature and wildlife. A conservation photographer takes those images and makes sure they are put in front of the people who make decisions, change policy, and have influence. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Also, the conservation photographer studies the levers that affect the issue he or she is photographing and uses those levers to shed additional light on the story.

Cristina Mittermeier Posted April 10 Share Posted April 10 Quote What separates a nature photograph from a conservation photograph? How do you make an impact with images? Levers can be anything and often include issues around poverty, war, greed, ignorance.....it almost always is a mix of these, but the real art of the conservation photographer is thinking through the story and imagining how to change the outcome. And then, of course, finding allies, becoming a diplomat, a translator, an advocate. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
