Documenting the places where people
and wildlife meet.

Based dockside at Channel Islands Harbor, Salt + Noelle is a conservation media studio with daily access to California's marine ecosystems. We tell our own stories and help tourism boards, research institutions, and mission-driven brands tell theirs.

All field work follows our Admire from Afar methodology, where documentation occurs at distances that ensure wildlife is never disturbed.

Photo Essays & Field Notes
Our original work. Photo essays from the field, travel guides with custom maps, and iNaturalist recaps. Plus the Founder's Journal, where I document the process of building Salt + Noelle from the water. Covering the California coast and beyond.
