About ME:

My name is Alexander Hjorthol and I am a 22 year old wildlife photographer based in Richmond, London. My passion for wildlife photography is rooted in my belief that we must protect and preserve nature for generations to come, and to do this we must first get the public personally interested in the protection of natural spaces.

Richmond Park, a place described by Mr Attenborough as a ‘natural gem‘, has acted as an escape for me, an escape from the stresses of everyday life, to which I accredit my good mental health. I have been fortunate enough to have been able to visit a many exotic places in the world, yet my best photos I believe, have still been taken in this park, a true haven mere miles from central London. I encourage everyone to discover a single place, experience or moment which in turn will change their lives and provoke a sense of duty to look after the natural world.
