Nature First Commitment

Every day, as we venture outdoors, it’s vital to reflect and remember our responsibility to the places we photograph. Help protect and preserve the natural world. Use your influence to promote responsible nature photography, for everyone.

Anyone can make a difference by spreading the word about Nature First – no audience is too small. #naturefirst

Nature First principles: Prioritize the well-being of nature over photography. Educate yourself about the places you photograph. Reflect on the possible impact of your actions. Use discretion if sharing locations. Know and follow rules and regulations. Always follow Leave No Trace principles and strive to leave places better than you found them. Actively promote and educate others about these principles. naturefirst.org
