This video covers a summer spent doing wildlife photography in Yellowstone National Park. I lived in Yellowstone for 3 months as a seasonal employee, and I photographed Yellowstone wildlife the whole time. I was in Yellowstone during the historic flooding in June, and in this video I cover the floods and photograph bison, wolves, grizzly bears, elk, pronghorn, and more. I also photograph wildlife in Grand Teton National Park. This video showcases what it’s like to live in Yellowstone photographing wildlife.

Best 28 minutes of my week. Thank you for all your work putting this video together, and all your work filming and photographing and researching this special ecosystem.

I've made several trips to Alaska just for the brown bear photography. It will become addicting as the bear are bigger and of course the country is definitely more isolated. It was rare that we ever encountered people, you'll love it I'm sure, assuming its your first trip.

Yes it will be my first trip! I’m definitely very excited, I’ve heard nothing but great things about the bear photography up there.

Jam looks so little when she’s up close! Thank you so much for these videos, I’m watching all of them to try and learn how to know where to find wildlife photo opportunities while being aware and respectful before making my first trip to Yellowstone in September.

As an aspiring macro and nature photographer, I really appreciate your obvious love of your subjects. For many, it’s only about the final image, but the work often seems sterile without true devotion to the subject matter. Thank you for sharing these moments with us-it touched me deeply.
