Lee Frost is a self-taught, award-winning macro photographer based in Stoke-on-Trent, Staffordshire, UK. Specializing in close-up photography of insects and arachnids, he is often out in the field as early as 3 a.m., when cooler temperatures make his subjects less active and easier to capture.

In addition to his photography work, Lee is an ambassador for Cygnustech and Buglife, and also leads photography workshops for Greenwings Holidays.

Lee first picked up a camera 13 years ago, and since then has achieved significant recognition, winning multiple awards and being featured in a wide range of publications worldwide. His accolades include 1st place in the Luminar Bug Awards 2020 (Bug Home category), as well as the People’s Choice Award at The British Photography Awards in 2021, 2022, and 2024 (Macro category). In 2023, he was named “Best British Macro Photographer” at The British Photography Awards.

His work has been featured by National Geographic and BBC Earth, and he has appeared across various BBC platforms including BBC News, BBC Radio, BBC Brazil, BBC Spain, and in a filmed feature with BBC Midlands.

Lee’s photography has been published internationally in newspapers across countries such as India, France, Spain, Portugal, Croatia, Brazil, and the Dominican Republic. His work has also appeared in major UK national newspapers including the Daily Mail, The Telegraph, The Mirror, The Sun, and The Times.

In addition, his images have been featured in leading photography and wildlife magazines such as Practical Photographer, N-Photo, Digital SLR, Amateur Photographer, Digital Camera World, and BBC Wildlife, among others.

Juan Jacobo Castillo is a nature photographer from Colombia. Driven by a deep connection to the natural world, he travels throughout his country and Latin America photographing wildlife and using images as a tool to generate emotion, awareness, and conservation. He firmly believes that an image can transcend aesthetics and become a bridge between people and nature, awakening empathy and responsibility for what is at risk of disappearing.

Long before pressing the shutter, Brazilian photographer Chris Burgard says that curiosity was the driving force behind all of his solo and family travels. His work emerges from the intersection of nature, culture and that curiosity - with distinguished ability to merge the natural world with the realm of art - translating atmosphere and emotions into strong compositions.

Throughout his career, he has sold more than 150 fine art prints, shot everything between weddings and wildlife, and most recently he has turned his expertise and unique approach to travel into Photographic Expeditions across Brazil and Africa - guiding small groups through regions of striking natural beauty and authentic cultural experiences.

Nils is a street and travel photographer based in Hamburg, Germany. Guided by curiosity and shaped by the moments he encounters on the road, his work is driven by a genuine desire to capture atmosphere, emotion, and the quiet stories in between. With a naturally optimistic perspective on life and a love for laughter, he tends to focus on the positive and often reflects that sense of lightness in his imagery.

Entirely self-taught, his approach to photography has grown organically over the years — through trial and error, small victories, and a constant willingness to learn. He draws inspiration from the work of other photographers, continuously absorbing different styles, techniques, and ideas, and letting them naturally evolve into his own visual language. What defines his images is not perfection, but honesty and a strong sense of feeling.

When he’s not wandering city streets, Nils can often be found exploring more remote paths in his fully equipped Land Rover Defender — a vehicle built for the kind of places that don’t come with directions but adventures.

Along the way, he shares his knowledge and love for photography through workshops at off-road, overlanding, and travel events, focusing on street and travel photography and the art of capturing authentic moments on the road.

His upcoming journey will take him even further: a seven-month expedition across the USA and Canada, chasing light, landscapes, and whatever moments unfold along the way.

 Alessandro Di Modica was born in 1992 in San Severino Marche, a small village in the heart of the Marche region.

Since childhood, he has always been passionate about mountains and photography. Over the past eight years, he has become increasingly passionate and immersed himself in nature to capture shots of the most captivating locations in Italy and Europe.

Over time, this passion has become a necessity, and he has finally managed to turn it into a career. His goal is to make you fall in love with the places he will show you, places he himself has fallen in love with.

Alessandro is always looking for new ideas and places where he can create new content, in any season. His main goal is to let you fully experience the world of wildlife, drawing on his experience in the field, with the utmost respect for nature and the animals he photographs.

Nathan Clark is a wildlife photographer and cinematographer based out of Washington State in the US. Nathan is passionate about documenting wildlife behavior and photographing them in their environment. 

Nathan grew up on a farm in central Nebraska in the US, where Nathan's love of wildlife was shaped by the rhythms of the plains—migrating Sandhill Cranes overhead, Prairie Chickens booming each spring, and many opportunities to learn about local wildlife. 

As Nathan's passion for photography grew, he found himself traveling far from home in search of elusive, “iconic” animals. But as he has matured, he has focused more on the animals he can find in the western part of the US and Canada so he can spend ample time studying and filming throughout the seasons and over multiple years. He has found that this allows him to really understand a subject's behavior and have the best opportunity to document it to share with others.

Nathan hopes that his images and video inspire a sense of wonder for the natural world and a desire to protect it
