Based in North East England, Brian has documented wildlife across over 60 countries, working on projects that highlight the impact of climate change on ecosystems. A three-time Wildlife Photographer of the Year finalist, his work has appeared in BBC Wildlife, National Geographic, and Outdoor Photography.
