Meet the photographer

Adam Rainoff

I’m a photographer based in California, near Los Angeles. I travel to remote corners of the world to photograph birds in the wild, then donate the images to local conservation partners so they can grow ecotourism and keep those places wild. I also teach photography in remote communities, so others can carry this work forward.

My prints ship anywhere in the world, and you can license any photo for your own project. Every print or license helps fund my next trip into the field and the images I donate to local conservation partners.
