    In Conversation with Adam Gibbs | Nature & Landscape Photographer

    The Nature Photo Guys, Joe Desjardins & Chris Gibbs, welcome Adam Gibbs to the show. A nature photographer who has been capturing the world of photography since 1992. With over two decades dedicated primarily to garden photography, and hundreds of images published in magazines across North America, his impressive portfolio doesn’t stop there. For him, photography is more than just a profession; it’s a passion that intertwines with his love of the great outdoors. Whether trail running, climbing, hiking, he uses his camera as an excuse to explore and showcase the beauty of our natural world. And his journey in search of ‘Quiet Light’ has taken him to remarkable locations, allowing him to pursue what he truly loves. While his approach to nature photography has evolved over the years, he tends to be drawn to contrasts in colour and more intimate views within grand landscapes. For him, the true reward lies in the experience of capturing the photograph, with the final image serving as the icing on the cake. In addition to his photography work, he runs a popular YouTube channel where he shares his adventures and offers a glimpse into his life as a photographer. Please welcome to the show, Adam Gibbs.
