Jonna Wood is a Finnish American Nature and Wildlife Photographer who is passionate about biodiversity and animal rights.

Hi, I’m Jonna Wood

nature &wildlife PhotographeR Storyteller

ENVIRONMENTALIST

PASSIONATE ABOUT CREATING A KINDER, GREENER AND MORE PEACEFUL PLANET FOR ALL BEINGS.

I practice my nature and wildlife photography skills on my free time at the moment, but am working towards spending more time with wildlife and photography soon.

My current day job is in business and marketing development in nature based travel industry.

And I freelance as a one woman marketing team, helping people, businesses and organizations with planet positive initiatives, by offering photography, social media and marketing strategy help.

Growing up I dreamed of being a biologist and saving whales. As I got older I gathered that it’s the multinational big corporations that truly have the chance at changing the world, so I studied business and graduated with a bachelor’s degree in international business management and marketing.

Little did I know, that years later I’d do studies in Conservation Biology in the University of Mauritius and help with whale and dolphin conservation by doing social media and photography for a non profit. I’m also a University of Florida certified Florida Master Naturalist and a Professional Photography graduate from New York Institute of Photography.

I’ve lived on three continents, dipped my toes in all the oceans and been boiled in an unimaginable amount of life’s challenges. I’ve gotten lost many a times along the way but I always come back to: Photography and nature.

“Our Sierra Club group has benefitted tremendously of the Social Media and Design help provided by Jonna. Not only have we grown our member base since we started working with Jonna, but we have also been able to instigate actual change in the community. Jonna spearheaded a Sierra Club Social Media video campaign. She built the concept, shot and edited the video, created the Facebook ad campaign, managed the active campaign for best results and reported about the results and analytics in the end. The reach and engagement of this campaign were wonderful and we were able to see the results and ROI as we together contributed to actual environmental change in the community. I have truly enjoyed working with Jonna, she is a conscientious and genuine person who gets very excited about helping others and making the world a better place.”

Julie Ferreira, Chair @ Sierra Club Nassau County Group

“I had been impressed by the results Jonna had got on a local Facebook campaign and wanted to work with her on my election campaign. Jonna built my digital presence from group up, compared to the other candidates I started with zero social media presence. Personally I’m not a big Social Media person but I was able to trust Jonna to listen and understand my point of view and how to create visibility that was in line with who I am. Together we created something that I was not only comfortable with but very excited about. The cooperation was effortless and I was able to see the advantages and results of our project ; In fact with Jonna’s help I won the election. I would recommend Jonna in a heartbeat.”
