About this Event

Wildlife photography is an incredibly rewarding discipline, but most photographers are content to simply have an animal in the frame.

Join Sony Ambassador Nate Luebbe as he discusses how to take the next step from wildlife snapshots to immersive storytelling, creating images that are equally at home on your walls or in magazines.

ABOUT THE INSTRUCTOR

Nate Luebbe grew up in the mountains of Colorado, spending nearly every waking moment out in the woods hiking, climbing, and exploring. Although Nate is still semi-feral, he has channeled his love of nature into becoming an Eagle Scout, college graduate, and now works as a full time nature photographer specializing in landscapes and wildlife. Nate combines his past work as an environmental scientist with his storytelling capabilities and uses his photography to encourage responsible wilderness ethics and promote conservation efforts.

Nate has been a member of Sony's ambassador team since 2017. He teaches workshops all over the world, with a particular focus on wildlife and astrophotography. Follow his journey at @nateinthewild on Instagram.
