BEHIND THE LENS
Greetings! My name is Hanna and I'm not just a Wildlife Photographer and Zoologist; I'm an adventurer on a mission to bring the captivating stories of animals and nature to life.
My journey, rooted in the world of Zoology, has been a thrilling odyssey filled with encounters that have allowed me to freeze moments in time through my lens. From working with the wild horses of Sable Island as a field researcher to the vast landscapes of Southern Africa, I've immersed myself in the wonders of wildlife, capturing the essence of the creatures I hold dear.
Beyond the lens, my true passion lies in bringing wildlife into the hearts of people. Armed with my Masters in Zoology, I embark on a dual mission: to share the awe-inspiring beauty of the natural world and to raise awareness about the critical need for conservation and wildlife research.
I find immense satisfaction in getting my hands dirty, quite literally, as I actively participate in on-the-ground wildlife projects. This hands-on involvement allows me to witness the positive changes unfolding in the ecosystems where I work. It's a remarkable experience that goes beyond photography, creating a connection between me, the wildlife, and the communities striving to coexist harmoniously.
Through my lens and the stories I share, let's forge a connection with the wild that transcends the confines of mere observation, igniting a shared commitment to preserving the beauty that surrounds us.
Welcome to my world, where every adventure is a chapter waiting to be written, and every photograph is a testament to the extraordinary tapestry of life.
HOW I GIVE BACK AS A PHOTOGRAPHER
When you support my work, you are also helping me continue my work of shedding light on the incredible work carried out by NGOs dedicated to supporting both wildlife and the communities intertwined with them.
Beyond capturing the beauty of nature, I actively engage with projects that make a tangible impact. A significant part of my commitment involves donating my time and skills to provide these projects with photographs, empowering them to tell their stories and garner support.
ABOUT ME
Picture this: a British accent wrapped around a 100% Swedish soul, and you've stumbled upon the storyteller of this wild adventure – me.
Born in '94 during a British rendezvous between my Swedish parents, my early years were spent in the UK. By the age of 7, we moved back to Sweden, until I turned 19.
In 2014 I moved back to the UK to get a Master's degree in Zoology at University of Exeter which opened doors to a remarkable journey.
Fast forward to 2019, I found myself in the heart of Zimbabwe, specifically in the breathtaking Victoria Falls. Here, amidst the raw beauty of nature, my days are spent between the click of the camera, wildlife conservation work and my full time job at Victoria Falls Wild Hub.
Now a resident of Victoria Falls, where I also met the love of my life, I find immense joy in immersing myself in the local pulse. Some jest that I'm more 'Zimbo' than most locals, owing to my intimate knowledge of every nook and cranny, and my knack for scoring the best local deals.
Come join me on this life, where every photograph carries a tale about the wildlife I surround myself with.
