Wildlife Photography - Nature - Animals - Conservation - Traveling - Daily life

My name is Linda and I have a passion for wildlife, photography, nature, animals, traveling and gardening.
I am a photographer with animal caretaking skills and I am on a mission to help wildlife rescue centers all over the world with my skills and dedicate my life to conservation photography.

I started as a photographer in zoos. During my photography days I took a lot of animal videos, mostly for myself as a memory. In 2020 I have decided to share some of these moments on YouTube and that is how this channel started. I will continue to improve this channel. Besides animals only videos I will also share with you behind the scenes videos of my life as a photographer and my journey to becoming a fulltime professional wildlife & conservation photographer.

By showing these wonderful moments, I hope people will see how beautiful nature is and the animals in our world are.

With love,
Linda

Last week felt like a dream ✨
I had the honour of being invited to the prestigious Siena Photo Awards — a festival set in the heart of beautiful Tuscany, Italy.

With my photo of western lowland gorilla Awali, I received a ‘commended’ award in the Siena Creative Photo Awards. 🦍💫

During three magical evenings of the festival, a breathtaking video was projected onto the Palazzo Pubblico and the Torre del Mangia. It was such an incredible honour to see my photo of Awali included in the show — lighting up Siena’s iconic tower. 🌙✨

It was truly inspiring to connect with so many talented and kind photographers — a community that lifts each other up. The Siena Awards team made us feel incredibly welcome.

I’ve fallen in love with Siena, a city where beauty hides around every corner. Grateful for the memories, the inspiration, and the wonderful new friends made along the way. ♥️

Congratulations to all winners — your work is beyond inspiring! 🙌
