Get The Guide: Selling Nature Photography

The best nature photographers seem to walk the fine line between photographer and devout worshiper of the outdoors. For those who have made it their business to capture the natural world, it is often “less about the money and more about the passion, the love of it, and the lifestyle,” which is exactly how adventure and documentary photographer Jody McDonald put it.
