#96: Often (and I do this all the time) we get wrapped up in the idea that conservation is about wildlife and protecting wilderness. It's about saving critters from the brink of extinction.

That's not what it's all about though.

Conservation is actually so many things. It is social justice, economic equality, access to resources. It is rooted in race, class, culture, and so much more.\xa0

Ultimately conservation is about paving a path toward sustainability on all levels, and using your photography to bring attention to that path.\xa0

That makes our job as conservation photographers that much easier, because it means we can bring elements of our conservation values and messaging into every niche of photographic work.\xa0

Rebeca Stumpf is a perfect example of a photographer who has found a way to live out her conservation values in commercial and editorial work.

Dive into this episode to hear how Rebecca has honed her style and what she's known for to be able to land commercial work that aligns with her values, and provides opportunity to slip conservation values into mainstream conversations.\xa0
