Scott Wilson, A Personal Journey towards PhotoAdvocacy 13th March 2026

Presented by the FIAP Photo Academy's Free Online Events on Friday 13th March 2026 at 7pm via zoom is 'A Personal Journey towards PhotoAdvocacy' with Scott Wilson.

You are invited to join this presentation from Colorado-based conservation photographer, Scott Wilson, who believes photography and photojournalism have key roles to play in supporting causes and communities we believe in.

He has built a platform of PhotoAdvocacy speaking on behalf of wild horses in the American west, celebrating the special place they hold in the country's natural fabric, despite a daily threat of removal from their homes on public lands.

A landscape photographer of 20 years, Scott refocused his lens on Colorado’s wildlife after a prolonged battle with stage 4 cancer, leading to the life-changing discovery of a remote and mesmerizing herd in Sand Wash Basin on the Wyoming border.

But it was an impending roundup, threatening the survival of the herd, that unlocked Scott's purpose as a PhotoAdvocate and he has since campaigned for better outcomes for wild horses from behind and in front of the lens.

Scott is a contributor to We Animals Media, the world’s largest animal photojournalism agency, American Wild Horse Conservation and sanctuaries including Skydog in Oregon and Zuma’s in Littleton, Colorado.

Anger Management, a statement piece about the conservation challenges facing wild horses in the American west, earned the Natural World and Wildlife and Open Photographer of the Year Awards in the Sony World Photography Awards, raising awareness of wild horse issues in more than 140 countries.
