Photographer Guadalupe Laiz shares six years of traveling in Africa to capture intimate portraits of endangered animals.&#8221;<\/em> \u2014 <strong>USA Today&#8217;s Outdoors Wire<\/strong><em><br \/>\n&#8220;Capturing the essence of wild creatures and conveying a sense of proximity in one frame is what brings exotic wildlife close to the viewer.&#8221; <\/em>\u2014 <strong>Digital Camera World<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><em>&#8220;&#8230;her photographs serve as an initiative to raise awareness on the threats facing wildlife, and the environment which sustains it.&#8221;\u00a0<\/em>\u2014\u00a0<strong>Arabian Business Traveller<\/strong><br \/>\nA truly beautiful collection of luxurious images, <strong><em>Among the Living, Where You Belong<\/em><\/strong> showcases the magnificent wildlife photography taken by photographer and explorer Guadalupe Laiz.<\/p>\n<p>For this book, Guadalupe travelled across the African continent for six years, forgoing comfort for months at a time\u2014returning with intimate portraits of charismatic and fierce, yet often vulnerable and endangered animals. It is impossible to look at one of her photographs\u2014really see it\u2014and not feel her subject\u2019s innate individuality. She spends time with these creatures up close in their natural habitats, gets to know them personally over time, and builds on trust and respect in encounters with such creatures as Big Craig, the biggest elephant tusker in Kenya, the famous Susa gorilla family in Rwanda, or Bob Jr., the majestic lion dubbed the King of the Serengeti in Tanzania\u2014among many others, including rhinos, giraffes, zebras, leopards, and more.<\/p>\n<p>Her work reveals something anyone who has been around such animals at close range knows: these beasts are intelligent and self-interested. They love. They fear. They have needs and desires, and they deserve to be themselves and be seen for what and who they are.<\/p>\n<p>Guadalupe\u2019s work is vital. Ultimately, Guadalupe\u2019s efforts are to communicate through art the importance of animal abuse awareness, environmental issues, and the relevance of educating all generations to make conscious lifestyle decisions to protect our planet. Beautiful and transporting, Guadalupe\u2019s work is also a call to action. She inspires us to become wildlife advocates, and to join conservation efforts whichever way we can. Guadalupe has partnered with nonprofits involved with environmental issues, animal abuse, and human-animal conflicts in Africa, such as the Dian Fossey Foundation, Big Life Foundation, Save Giraffes Now, and Lewa Conservancy for Rhinos, as well as engaged in humanitarian work with 4africa in South Sudan and north Uganda.<\/p>\n<p>Guadalupe offers this collection, a labour of love, of her encounters with this wildlife, chronicling the many linked moments she witnessed in the intimacy of their everyday journeys.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>A truly stupendous collection of photographs, Among the Living showcases the magnificent wildlife photography taken by photographer and explorer Guadalupe Laiz over the course of six years travelling to Africa.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"featured_media":41362,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","template":"","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"_relevanssi_hide_post":"","_relevanssi_hide_content":"","_relevanssi_pin_for_all":"","_relevanssi_pin_keywords":"","_relevanssi_unpin_keywords":"","_relevanssi_related_keywords":"","_relevanssi_related_include_ids":"","_relevanssi_related_exclude_ids":"","_relevanssi_related_no_append":"","_relevanssi_related_not_related":"","_relevanssi_related_posts":"","_relevanssi_noindex_reason":""},"product_brand":[],"product_cat":[11731],"product_tag":[],"class_list":{"0":"post-41361","1":"product","2":"type-product","3":"status-publish","4":"has-post-thumbnail","6":"product_cat-photography","7":"author-by-author-guadalupe-laiz","8":"author-edited-by-adam-skolnick","9":"publisher-the-images-publishing-group","10":"series-guadalupe-laiz","12":"first","13":"instock","14":"shipping-taxable","15":"purchasable","16":"product-type-simple"},"acf":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v27.0 -
