An ethical photographer and environmentalist, Jim Lawrence strives to present images that instill understanding of our fragile wilderness and inspire respect
​for life in endangered ecosystems.

He aspires to crystallize the character of the animals and considers observation privileges a profound honor. His patience and acuity is guided by an intention
to raise consciousness about the lives of animals and persuade the protection of wilderness habitat. During extended global travels. Jim studied
photography formally at the Durban Institute of Technology in South Africa.
 
​Jim developed an intimate relationship with the wilderness
from early childhood. Growing up in the Lardeau Valley afforded
experiences like accompanying a fur trapper on a two week trek along remote
trapline when he was thirteen. His trained eye sees textures in alpine meadows
and ancient forests, stillness in reflections on quiet water,
and hints of the photographer's sense of wonder and astonishment.

"The love of all living creatures is the most noble attribute of man."
