Wildlife photographer and Sony Ambassador Kate Newman (@katenewmanphoto) joins us to share how she turned a secondhand camera and backyard birds into a career in wildlife photography. We dive into her creative editing process, the challenges of working in a male-dominated industry, and the fine line between art and documentary in wildlife photography. Kate opens up about why she prefers photographing animals to humans, what makes a strong wildlife image, and how she’s built a thriving community through prints, workshops, and pure passion.
