Hi, I’m Austin Greene — a marine scientist, conservation technologist, and passionate photographer based in the Pacific Northwest.

My work spans field ecology, wedding photography, and the design of custom camera systems like the KiloCam, which I developed to support ecological monitoring in challenging environments. Whether I’m building tools for conservation or documenting a wedding, I’m drawn to stories rooted in place, light, and quiet observation. I photograph landscapes, wildlife, and people with the same thoughtful approach—aiming to capture moments that feel real, grounded, and timeless.

This site brings together these threads of my work: where science meets art and every image is a study in connection.
