About Gathered Light Magazine
Our Mission
Photography & Conservation in Focus
Gathered Light Magazine is a bi-monthly print and digital publication exploring fine art photography, conservation, and education. We feature photographers whose work champions human and planetary rights, using imagery to document, inspire, and engage meaningfully.
Photography shapes our awareness of the planet, its ecosystems, and its diverse communities. Each issue highlights visual storytelling, fine art printing techniques, film and darkroom processes, and photography's role in advocacy and environmental responsibility.
Published six times a year, supplemented with monthly online content, Gathered Light Magazine fosters dialogue and reflection around conservation, cultural narratives, and personal connection to global challenges.
Join us in celebrating photography’s power to reveal, connect, and preserve.
