Ethical
Allow me to share a tale of two owls. It helps me - and many others that I've shared it with - be a more ethical wildlife photographer or filmmaker.
Learn about a simple way to be transparent about the context of a wildlife photo or video. It's easy to assume - and hope - that wildlife photos are truly of "wild life" but that's not always the case, and being less than honest can have unintended consequences. WACC lets wildlife photographers and filmmakers protect the animals we care about while being honest with our viewers. (All my photos on this website are wacc: wild unless otherwise noted.)
If you love wildlife photography and you're ready to make it feel less challenging and more joyful - all while being an ethical photographer - then I invite you to join me in a wildlife photography course. I offer it online (through a live class on Zoom) and I'm also available for in-person classes or workshops with groups.
