Bio:

Starting in 2007, Ray’s my fascination with nature photography began. In the years since wildlife photography with a focus on birds has gone from a very passionate hobby of his to become my career.

He spent much of his free time in natural areas searching for birds and any other wildlife that comes along. Ray concentrate on using creative natural lighting and interesting compositions to capture unique images of common and rare wildlife. His favorite style is a more scenic photo that includes some of the habitat wildlife lives in.

He also enjoy passing along the knowledge and experience that he has gathered over the years to other photographers who are eager to learn. Ray has had the privilege of working with students both in person and remotely from all over the world to help guide them and accelerate the techniques and refinement of their wildlife photography.
