About Daniel
“I’m mostly known for my wildlife photography, but I like to think of myself as an explorer with a camera.”
For more than 40 years, Daniel J. Cox has pursued his lifelong dream of photographing nature in all its elements. He has traveled to all seven continents, seeking images that tell stories and inspire his art.
Driving rain, spitting snow, and howling wind are part of the environment he calls home. For Daniel, difficult weather brings great light, unusual cloud formations, and dramatic settings.
His work has appeared in galleries including Nikon House New York, the National Museum of Wildlife Art in Jackson Hole, and the Natural History Museum in London. When he is not on assignment, Daniel and his wife Tanya lead photography tours around the world.
Photography in service of the wild.
Daniel’s career includes work as a field contributor for Outdoor Photographer, an honorary Nikon Legend Behind the Lens, a Panasonic Lumix Ambassador, a consultant for HP fine art printers, and a mentor for American Photo’s Mentor Series. His conservation work includes service as Director of the Arctic Documentary Project for Polar Bears International.
