Wildlife photographers specialize in capturing images of animals, birds and plants in their natural habitats. This genre of photography takes much skill and patience. It also requires a special sensibility to find and document the stories of the natural world within a single frame and moment of time.

This requires a lot of practice often over years. You need to have a good camera that you are comfortable with and know how to use. You need to understand natural light and framing and how to use editing programs to bring out the best in your photos.

Wildlife photography can be a very fulfilling job or hobby. One shot can tell not just the story of the animals featured but also the story of the state and health of their habitat. This has never been a more important story to tell.
