Teach Us Something: Top Tips for Wildlife Photography

We’re back with another episode of Teach Us Something, a video series in which YOU share your passions and hobbies with the rest of us! We’re so happy to introduce Milford’s Engagement Manager Kari Rea, a wildlife photography lover and our Teacher for today.

Kari remembers getting her knees dirty in creek beds back when she was a kid, and her family’s love for the outdoors and birding led to her own passion for wildlife. When she’s not spearheading Milford’s ELLWell efforts, Kari volunteers for local animal rehabilitation programs, helping nurse animals back to health so they can be re-released into the wild.

In Kari’s mind, you don’t need a fancy camera to take wildlife photos. It’s more important to get outside, take notice of what’s around you, and capture whatever beauty catches your eye. Learn more wildlife photography tips from Kari in the video above!
