EVA CADARIO LPSNZ
STUDIO CADARIO is Eva Cadario, photographer and painter.
Eva fell in love with photography when she was given her first camera at the age of 9; since then she has combined this enduring interest with her passion for nature, conservation and animals.
Eva says of the New Zealand native birds portfolio: “As a keen bird photographer, I am in my happy place whenever I aim my camera on my flighty subjects, whether this involves lying on a forest floor or crouching in the mud of intertidal zones. Living in the age of the Anthropocene, I want to showcase the beauty and quirks of these often-underrated creatures through intimate portraits and captured behaviours, as I believe that people care most about what they know.”
