The Wild Lens is my collection of studio portraits dedicated entirely to wildlife. These images focus solely on the animals, capturing their unique textures and colors against a deep black or white background. This minimalist approach removes distractions, allowing the beauty and detail of each creature to take center stage.
Through these portraits, I hope to raise awareness of the threats facing wildlife and their habitats. If you'd like to see these animals in their natural environments, explore my In The Field gallery.
