Full time dedication to animal photography
With enough support, I would be able to apply myself full-time to photography and all the work that goes along with it. While life-changing for myself, I believe that with more time to commit, I can provide so much more value to animal welfare and conservation organisations.
Monthly visits to animal NGOs
The ability to cover the costs of trips to visit the charities would enable me to make as many trips as our schedules permit, providing them with the ability to provide much more up-to-date imagery for their supporters, sponsors, media and merchandise. Things change so rapidly in the world of welfare, conservation and rescuing itty-bitty baby animals that the more coverage they can get, the better.

Hi, I'm Peter and I provide professional photography services to animal rescue, welfare and conservation charities.

If you love animals and the organisations that rescue them, please consider pledging as little or as much as you like to help me support them in their ongoing need for images and awareness. Pledges are in US dollars and are per photo essay.
Don't forget to check the bottom of this page for the rewards you can receive for pledging!
You can see my work and a list of charities I work with on my website.

What I Do
Good images are vital for these organisations, but I also provide online photo libraries as well as all the other ancillary work and ongoing support they need.
I also try to spread awareness with photo essays, social media and exhibitions, and sell prints of my work, with all the proceeds going directly to the charities.
Clicking the shutter is the easy part; animal welfare involves many sensitive situations both physical and political. The charities need someone who can be trusted to act professionally with the people, appropriately with the animals and responsibly with the images.

Why Patreon?
I never charge charities for my work, and I never will. I cover my travel costs, and don't take any money from print sales or similar; it all goes to the charities. Patreon is an easy way for people to show their appreciation and help me to support the charities as much as I can.
My goal is to get enough support that I can dedicate all of my time to these charities and the animals that they care for.
How Does It Work?
Put any amount in the box above, enter your details, and every time I publish a new photo essay, you'll be charged that amount. Check my website or the 'Creations' tab at the top of this box to see some example of the work you will be supporting and the photo essays that accompany it.
How often will payments be made?
Although my aim is one photo essay per month, you should set your monthly maximum donation amount when you check out, so that you only donate what you want. You can also pause donations or cancel completely at any time.
Should I pledge loads and loads of money?
Yes please! If you donate any of the amounts in the reward boxes at the bottom of this page, you will also receive lovely gifts!
