I have express, written permission from all of these photographers to use their photos, credited, on this site for educational and portfolio purposes. If a photographer has watermarked their photo, I always leave it there. If you would like your photos to be featured, let's chat! I am always looking for more pictures of whales worldwide.
Sara Hysong Shimazu
Shimazu is the captian and naturalist of San Juan Islands Whale Watch, based in Friday Harbor, Washington. Her photos have incredible composition and presence, and she was kind enough to grant me permission to use her photos of wild whales on this site. She's on Instagram at @hysazu. This is J40 Suttles.
