Experience:

My name is Elijah Gildea, I am a marriage and family therapist and local photographer. I have been photographing wildlife and people since 2007.

Ever since my first tour of Costa Rica in 2016 I knew I was hooked. I have now traveled photographing birds and other wildlife in Costa Rica several times as well as in Colombia and Mexico. Currently, I teach photography classes, arrange guided photography tours, and host photography sessions at home in my backyard bird haven. My photography has been published in Birds & Blooms Magazine and Enjoy Magazine.

Additionally, I shoot high school senior portraits, family photos and sports/action photos. Check out my photography on Instagram @elijahs_photgraphy
