Gareth Leonard | Day in the Life of a Nat Geo Photographer @GarethLeonard | Uploaded June 2023 | Updated October 2024, 3 hours ago.
This is a CRAZY "day in the life" of a Wildlife Photographer in Canada. Truth is; it was one horrible week where everything went horribly WRONG!

Vancouver Island, Canada - One of the most incredible and rugged adventures of my lifetime. I had the opportunity to follow four, award-winning Wildlife Photographers into the wilderness of British Columbia's West Coast for a week.

The goal was to get a nice pretty picture of coastal wolves in their stunning natural habitat. I wanted to highlight a real "day in the life" of a wildlife photographer, and I bit off way more than I can chew on this one, haha!

We had a beautiful first two days in the wild - until everything took a horrific turn for the worse. We got hit with a massive storm that ripped through the region and crushed any hope we had for capturing wildlife.

I hope you enjoy this Day in the Life episode, and please let me know if you have any ideas for new "Day in the Life" episodes of interesting people, cultures and stories.

Thanks for watching,

Gareth
