Nick Hall is a biodiversity conservationist and environmental photographer. Having read for a degree in Oceanography he went on to read for an MSc. in Biodiversity, Conservation & Management at Oxford University. His training in biodiversity conservation reflects his desire to understand the fundamental connections between humans and their environment. Training as an environmental scientist, he looks not only at the aesthetics of the world around him but instils understanding and insight to his imagery.
Nick has photographed in Mongolia, France, India, the UK, Spain, Turkey, Indonesia and the USA. He specialises in travel and environmental photography, shooting stories on issues that range from Javanese bird keeping to Buddhist sacred sites to mountain ecodevelopment.
Covering stories throughout the world, often in remote and challenging locations, nick has the experience, logistical management skills and sense of humour to get the job done. He has shot for an ever increasing list of non-profit groups, magazines and commercial clients that include Bird Life International, the Blue Ocean institute, Oxford University and the Great Himalayan National Park Service.
With a distinct and creative eye Nick strongly believes in photography, not only as a fine art form, but more importantly as a tool to communicate a message, to ‘open eyes’, to raise awareness. His passion for the natural world along with his fascination in the life forms that move within it, are the driving force of his inspiration.
