Through my photography, I tell stories about research efforts, conservation successes and defeats and work to change peoples perspectives of some of our most misunderstood species. From attempting to portray the lesser viewed calm interactions with a cruising great white to documenting the intimate moment an apex predator comes face to face with the free divers working to conserve their species, with every image I attempt to tell a story, educating the public about these unique encounters and the individuals working behind the scenes to save them.

Hi, I'm Inka and welcome to my website.

โ€‹

I'm a Bristol-based Wildlife filmmaker and underwater Camera Operator with a B.Sc. in Marine Biology and M.A. in Wildlife Filmmaking from The University of the West of England.

 

My goal is to be able to use my background in Marine Science to create inspiring Ocean Conservation films that educate and inform the next generation driving real conservation impact.

I also work as a social influencer in the diving industry and give public talks on ocean conservation, conservation filmmaking and marine topics to inspire more girls to become involved in the wildlife filmmaking and STEM industries.

On this site, you can follow my journey and gain behind the scenes insight into what it's like to work as a marine biologist on shark tagging research projects, learn about my work with the National Science Foundation in Chinas jungles and follow along as I pursue my dream of being a wildlife filmmaker.

With over 10 years of SCUBA diving experience, it's fair to say I am obsessed with our oceans. I'm a PADI Open Water Scuba Diver Instructor, TDI technical diver and have experience in underwater field research including AAUS NAUI scientific diver training. My photography galleries and videos I hope will give you a new unique perspective of what its like to dedicate your life to living beneath the waves.

I hope you enjoy the site and please do not hesitate to get in contact with any questions you have or any potential collaborations. I look forward to hearing from you!

THE OCEAN AND US

โ€‹

The Ocean and Us provides an overview of our contemporary understanding of the ocean and all the ways our lives interact with it. It is intended for everyone with an interest in our blue planet. The book brings together the expertise of over 35 ocean specialists from around the world. It explores a wide variety of themes including the importance of a healthy ocean in the fight to halt and contain climate change. It covers issues such as overfishing and pollution, as well as emerging themes such as the blue economy, marine animal welfare and how we can leverage innovation to protect the ocean. The book provides an overview of some of the world’s iconic threatened and at risk ocean ecosystems, and outlines current governance structures and ocean management tools. It also discusses the important social dimensions between people and the ocean, such as ocean and human wellbeing, communities and the ocean, and who gets to participate in the ocean space. The book aims to enhance ocean literacy by making specialist concepts accessible to non-experts, with a view to empowering concerned citizens everywhere to come into action for the ocean, and pave a better way forward for humanity..
