"Witness: Defining Conservation Photography" - Directed and produced by Neil Ever Osborne with editing and production by Chad A. Stevens and support from the iLCP





Witness: Defining Conservation Photography

A contemporary account of the emerging genre of conservation photography is explored through the voices and imagery of some of the best environmental communicators working today. Notable anthropologist Jane Goodall, National Geographic Editor-at-Large and iLCP Fellow Michael Nichols, and International League of Conservation Photographers (iLCP) president Cristina Mittermeier, among many others, share candid thoughts on the power of photography and its value as an effective conservation tool. The narrative is accompanied by stunning photographic contributions from over 40 iLCP conservation photographers to illustrate the convergence between the conservation and photography realms. Inspired by “Conservation Photography”, a thesis by Carlton Ward, Jr.
