Jonathan Webb
I am a zoologist and published nature photographer from the UK, currently living in Europe. As a lifetime animal-lover, I have an instinctive fondness for the wild and a passion for sustainable conservation and animal rights. I am self-taught and developed my approach to photography in England, while documenting the constant melodrama of grey squirrels in my local park. Now, using my camera, I aim to witness the planet in its rawest form and exhibit the realities of non-human lives in the 21st century.
I graduated with a Master's degree in Zoology in 2019 and have worked as a research assistant and independent researcher since. I am most interested in projects carried out on the interaction between animal behaviour, ecology, and cognition, and have studied a range of species including kea, Asian elephants, and hermit crabs.
You can follow my photography on instagram, view my published scientific articles on ResearchGate, or contact me directly here. If you are interested in the gear I use for photography, click here.
