Vital Impacts and Dr Jane Goodall

April 21, 2024

I'm beyond excited, and deeply humbled!

90 women photographers from around the world have been chosen by National Geographic photographer/filmmaker Ami Vitale to participate in 'The Nature of Hope', in conjunction with Vital Impacts and Dr. Jane Goodall Institute.

"In honour of Dr Jane Goodall's 90th birthday, Vital Impacts is partnering with Dr. Jane Goodall to shine a spotlight on the works of 90 women photographers that Jane has inspired. Each image tells a story of resilience, beauty, and the urgent need to protect our planet. Jane's legacy is about breaking down barriers, fostering empathy and a deeper connection with nature. " ~ Ami Vitale

90 prints are being offered for a limited time to support the Jane Goodall Institute. Your purchase contributes to the preservation of our natural world.

I'm thrilled that my wild horse image titled 'The Pair', has been chosen for this initiative.

‘The Pair

Dr. Goodall once said: "We find animals doing things that we, in our arrogance, used to think was 'just human".

These words have greatly shaped my wild horses advocacy.

The more we open our hearts and minds to the sentience of wild animals and the bonds they share, the more we see our own reflection. And the more we stand for their protection.

'The Pair' is a beautiful moment between two bonded wild horses on Sable Island. I'm grateful that wild horses are part of a breathtaking showcase that re-imagines our relationships to the natural world.
