THE STORYTELLER OF NATURE

 

Enter the breathtaking world of Jeffrey Van Daele, a passionate nature photographer with a deep-rooted heart for animals. His lens not only captures images; it captures emotions, stories and the pure essence of nature itself.

From his youth, Jeffrey cherished a fascination with nature. What started as capturing animals in his own environment quickly grew into a boundless passion. His wanderlust took him to the far reaches of Africa, Asia and other enchanting parts of the world, where he immortalized the beauty of wildlife through his lens.

More than just a photographer, Jeffrey is a true animal lover. His love for animals drove him to desire to become a veterinarian, but his heart couldn't bear to put terminal animals to sleep. Driven by this compassion, he launched the inspiring "Project Wounded" in 2019. Jeffrey is committed to the welfare of wild animals that have been injured or abandoned. He not only shares stories, but creates a tangible difference in the lives of animals in need.

Jeffrey passionately shares his knowledge by giving workshops, webinars and guiding photo tours.
