Julian W.

To challenge himself, he made a decision to venture into nature photography and quietly but steadily started building up his portfolio. In 1997, he decided to unleash his collection to the Singapore Zoo. Impressed by his images, they readily engaged Julian’s services. His first assignment was to photograph images for the Fragile Forest commemorative booklet.

More projects followed, including incentive photography, and the Great Rift Valley of Ethiopia and Elephants of Asia commemorative booklets. In between, Julian’s photographic endeavours were also featured in the Zoo’s quarterly publications, Zoo-Ed and Zoo Garden.

For his stunning track record and ability to deliver under pressure, Julian was conferred the title of Honorary Photographer in December 1999 for constantly providing breathtaking images for educational use.

As part of the BG Wildlife Photographer of the Year exhibition in 2000, Julian also presented a talk on photography to members of the public.

Julian’s images have also been used by Animal Planet, Knowledge Village, Sony, HSBC, Singapore’s Ministry of Education, SingTel, and Vitagen, among others.
