| Wildlife Conversations, Episode 30 with Amy Ames |

I’m so excited for wildlife and landscape photographer Amy Ames to join me for Episode 30.

Many of you know her as @pointamesandshoot on Instagram. Hailing from North Carolina, she was bitten by the wildlife photography bug in 2016 and since then has been all over the world including Svalbard, Costa Rica, Yellowstone, Antarctica, and the Great Bear Rainforest. She now guides her own tours and offers a course, Mastering the Art of Wildlife Photography. Her images often inspire others to slow down, look closer, and care more deeply about the natural world. 

We discuss the process of life-long learning and setting a goal each year, her transition to full-time wildlife photography, components of storytelling, her beautiful images, and so much more.
