Joel Sartore has traveled all over the world to photograph. He has contributed many photos to magazines, newspapers and journals. This may sound like thousands of photographers condensed bio, but Sartore differs. His photography documents endangered species and heavily impacted environments. His goal is to show a world worth saving. With this objective Joel Sartore fits the perfect model for conservation photography.
