About

Fritz Mueller

Fritz completed two degrees at University of British Columbia, doing his master’s fieldwork near Kluane National Park in the Yukon. For a decade he worked in northern Canada as a zoologist and environmental assessment scientist. In 2003 he quit his government job to shoot full-time. Fritz does a mix of editorial and commercial photography and is increasingly shooting motion projects. His main interest continues to be telling compelling stories about science, conservation and the interface between people and nature. Fritz is a Fellow of the Royal Canadian Geographical Society. An award-winning photographer, he’s published in National Wildlife, Canadian Geographic, Nature's Best, Ranger Rick, Natural History, Up Here, Defenders of Wildlife, explore, The New Yorker, The Globe and Mail, The Guardian and more. In 2011 Fritz and Teresa's book Yukon - A Wilder Place was published by Greystone Books/D&M.
