BUG AND BOTANICAL PORTRAIT PHOTOGRAPHY: DISCOVER THE WONDER OF YOUR GARDEN  

Wednesday, September 1, 6:30 pm. 

 

Photography is a wonderful way to capture the beauty of our gardens while showcasing the diversity of creatures that dwell among the blooms. Digital marketing manager for The Nature Conservancy in Ohio, Danae Wolfe, will share tips and techniques for capturing portraits of insects and the plants that support them. Her focus will include both traditional photography methods as well as macro setups that offer high magnification at a low cost. Be prepared to see your garden from a bug’s eye view!

 

Danae Wolfe is a writer, photographer, and engagement specialist with 12 years’ experience crafting compelling narratives that connect people with nature. She started her career working for the National Park Service as an interpretive park ranger where she developed outreach programs on water quality and invasive species.
