Based in the heart of Scotland's Cairngorms National Park, Peter Cairns is a freelance nature photographer whose images and stories appear in a wide variety of media. In addition to documenting Europe's high-profile wildlife species, Peter has a deep fascination for our own relationship with the natural world and much of his work focuses on a diverse range of issues such as wildlife management, ecological restoration, eco-tourism and evolving land-use regimes.
Along with Mark Hamblin, Peter published Wild Land in 2004 and has recently published the widely-acclaimed book from the Tooth & Claw predator project which he initiated in 2005.
Peter recently became a member of the International League of Conservation Photographers, a recognition of his growing contribution to contemporary environmental issues.
In addition to running his own image library, Peter contributes to several UK and European image agencies and has recently become a Director for the forthcoming Wild Wonders of Europe project which is set to become one of the largest nature photography initiatives ever undertaken.
