“THE LENS OF ADVENTURE”

What stories do we tell through our images? Where do they lead us? And what isn’t told through our images? Join Jennifer Idol on a journey of exploration through photography as she shares how one journey leads to the next.

From helping people connect to our local waters to helping divers engage personally with wildlife on expeditions, Jennifer will share the raw story of getting the shot and how it relates to the world around us.
