Registration is open!
Wildlife in Focus 2025 Photo and Video Contest
Both landowners and photographers should register as soon as possible so that WIF can help put you in contact with a registered photographer or landowner as desired. There is no need to wait until you know who your partner is. It is your choice of who you partner with so you can register now even if you have a partner in mind that has not yet registered.
What is Different About this Contest?
Our Team photo contest is unlike any other photo contests in that all photos are taken on participating private lands during the 100 day window of the contest, February 21-May31, 2025. This provides a unique opportunity for private landowners and photographers to get to know each other and work together as a team in this contest. It is also why advance registration is needed.
Capture Your Land through Professional Images
Landowners gain a portfolio of up to 100 professional-quality images that showcase the diversity of life on your land.
See your own land through the lens of a photographer and have the chance to win prize money.
Save thousands of dollars on the costs to hire a photographer to provide you with a portfolio of wildlife images from your land.
Photograph Exclusive Wildlife
Photographers have the unique opportunity to experience and photograph wildlife on private land without crowds. As a consideration a “normal” photography trip with hotel, park access, photo leader cost, transportation etc, would cost you $1000’s of dollars…much more than the entry fee, and you would not be the opportunity to win money…or more importantly make new friends with your landowner teammate. Participating in the contest will cause you to really improve your photography skills. Some past participants started entering as amateur’s and are now full time professionals leading tours around the world!.
Join the Photo Contest
We encourage all to participate, support conservation, and getting out to experience and explore wildlife, to share your experience with others and to create new relationships and friendships with others that enjoy wildlife.
