However, each subject represents a deliberate step in an artistic journey to develop new and distinctively different photographic skills. This presentation takes you from the remote wilderness of Khutzeymateen, Canada, and Lake Clark National Park and Preserve, Alaska &#8212; where logistical hurdles were as challenging as the grizzly bears themselves &#8212; to the sub-zero temperatures of Wolfe Island, Canada, to capture the high-speed action of snowy owls in flight. Following the owls, we track moose in the rut through the deep and dramatic snow of Grand Teton National Park, Wyoming. Finally, we move from the wilderness to the sky, as we chase lightning and storms across five states in the western United States. Please join me for a photographic journey on the wild side.<\/p>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"alignleft size-large is-resized\"><a href=\"https:\/\/nvps.org\/home\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/01\/Arizona-Strike-168-1.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"899\" height=\"1024\" src=\"https:\/\/nvps.org\/home\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/01\/Arizona-Strike-168-1-899x1024.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-33872\" style=\"aspect-ratio:0.87792643260543;width:337px;height:auto\" srcset=\"https:\/\/nvps.org\/home\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/01\/Arizona-Strike-168-1-899x1024.jpg 899w, https:\/\/nvps.org\/home\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/01\/Arizona-Strike-168-1-263x300.jpg 263w, https:\/\/nvps.org\/home\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/01\/Arizona-Strike-168-1-768x875.jpg 768w, https:\/\/nvps.org\/home\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/01\/Arizona-Strike-168-1.jpg 1050w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 899px) 100vw, 899px\" \/><\/a><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n<p>Tammy is a nature and wildlife photographer, dedicated to capturing the raw beauty and quiet power of the natural world. A passionate Nikon shooter and self-described light chaser, she seeks that fleeting moment when the world holds still, and there is harmony between light, landscape, and life. Her work is based on a respect for nature and a commitment to authenticity. She believes that photography isn\u2019t about perfection,&nbsp;but about presence. Her work invites viewers to slow down, to observe, and to reconnect with nature \u2014 one frame at a time.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>An award-winning and published photographer, Tammy is a member of the North American Nature Photography Association, the Cosmos Club Cosmotographers, and the Northern Virginia Photographic Society.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-gallery aligncenter has-nested-images columns-default is-cropped wp-block-gallery-1 is-layout-flex wp-block-gallery-is-layout-flex\">\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><a href=\"https:\/\/nvps.org\/home\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/02\/IMG_7665.jpeg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"400\" height=\"315\" data-id=\"33662\" src=\"https:\/\/nvps.org\/home\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/02\/IMG_7665.jpeg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-33662\" srcset=\"https:\/\/nvps.org\/home\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/02\/IMG_7665.jpeg 400w, https:\/\/nvps.org\/home\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/02\/IMG_7665-300x236.jpeg 300w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 400px) 100vw, 400px\" \/><\/a><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><a href=\"https:\/\/nvps.org\/home\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/02\/IMG_7662.jpeg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"400\" height=\"226\" data-id=\"33661\" src=\"https:\/\/nvps.org\/home\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/02\/IMG_7662.jpeg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-33661\" srcset=\"https:\/\/nvps.org\/home\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/02\/IMG_7662.jpeg 400w, https:\/\/nvps.org\/home\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/02\/IMG_7662-300x170.jpeg 300w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 400px) 100vw, 400px\" \/><\/a><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><a href=\"https:\/\/nvps.org\/home\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/01\/IMG_7663.jpeg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"400\" height=\"225\" data-id=\"33653\" src=\"https:\/\/nvps.org\/home\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/01\/IMG_7663.jpeg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-33653\" srcset=\"https:\/\/nvps.org\/home\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/01\/IMG_7663.jpeg 400w, https:\/\/nvps.org\/home\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/01\/IMG_7663-300x169.jpeg 300w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 400px) 100vw, 400px\" \/><\/a><\/figure>\n<\/figure>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Grizzly bears, snowy owls, moose, and lightning appear worlds apart at first glance.
