Welcome back to the fourth episode of our series leading up to the Wildlife Wednesday Series! Today, we’re joined by Jennifer Hadley, an award-winning wildlife photographer, filmmaker, and guide based in Raleigh, North Carolina. Jennifer brings expertise, heart, and a deep respect for animals and wild places into every aspect of her work — whether she’s guiding a photography workshop in Alaska or helping students understand the endangered red wolf’s story.
From the Arctic to Africa and beyond, Jennifer’s mission is clear: to use photography and film as powerful tools for conservation, education, and ethical storytelling. In this conversation, she shares how her lens helps spark stewardship, why behavior-based photography matters, and how we can all be more mindful when encountering wildlife — whether it’s behind the camera or out in the wild.
