How did your photography career start?
I’ve been a nature geek ever since I was a child growing up in California – chasing insects with my butterfly net and learning everything I could about the natural world. Photography had been a hobby for years, but really took off when I moved to Borneo, where I found a treasure trove of incredible plants and animals. I took the plunge in 2003 to become a freelance wildlife photographer.
What drew you to Borneo?
I had always wanted to live and work in the tropical rainforest, so when a job opportunity arose on the island just as I was finishing my degree, it was simply too good to pass up. Borneo’s charm is not only in its super-biodiverse rainforests, but the friendliness of its peoples, the culture and the opportunities to truly explore. It’s an amazing place to live.
Which of your shots is most important to you and why?

What's the largest animal gathering on Earth?
PEOPLE LOVE A PARTY. BUT AS POPULOUS as our species is, the headcounts at our gatherings don't match those of other species. The Maha Kumbh Mela, a Hindu pilgrimage in Prayagraj, India, drew more than 660 million people in January 2025. But this horde - thought to be the largest in human history – pales in comparison to the groups formed by our animal relatives.

Do plants have memory?
TO HAVE TRUE MEMORY AN ORGANISM requires brain cells to store experiences through the action of sophisticated neurotransmitters. Plants lacking brain cells therefore cannot be said to have that capacity for memory. However, there is evidence that some plants adapt their characteristics based on 'remembered' experiences.
