Episode 10: Wildlife Conversations with Julia Cook


Listen Later


Yellowstone Photographer Julia Cook, or @julia.littlelightningnature, joins me for Episode 10 of Wildlife Conversations! 


Growing up in Cody, Wyoming, Julia developed a love for nature and wildlife at an early age, and it’s no surprise that Yellowstone National Park became her muse for wildlife photography. A recent University of Wyoming graduate, she now pursues outdoor photography full time and is often in the park with her lab, Sylvan.


Julia shared her experiences growing up less than an hour from Yellowstone and how that shaped her love of nature. During the pandemic, she picked up a camera and started capturing the diverse ecosystem of Yellowstone, especially her favorite species, the grizzly bear. 


We discussed tips for traveling to Yellowstone, her favorite lens for photographing there, how community is important for creative support, and ways to protect and encourage coexistence with wildlife in and around the parks. 


Julia also shared some of her travels with us to Colorado and Alaska, and we also got to see some of her beautiful images. 

I loved this discussion with Julia, and I can't wait to see what she does in the future!
