Mitty has traveled the globe with a camera and a missionto document our planet in all its beauty and fragility. Her new book, Hope, is a deep dive into a lifetime of visual storytelling from every corner of the Earth.
This is a stunning rumination on the beauty of nature as we find ourselves on the edge of climate change. In the quiet moments of natures resilience, Mittys images show us whats at stakeand what can still be saved. Katie Couric
Over the past three decades, [ Cristina Mittermeier] has reshaped the idea of what nature photography can be; an act of advocacy, a bridge between science and emotion, and a call to protect not just ecosystems but the communities that sustain them. [ ] Her most recent book, HOPE weaves her personal narrative with visual stories from over 130 countries. Karina Acharya, Condé Nast Traveller
[ ] I reflect on the undercurrent of hope that flowed through our fatalistic conversations about the planet and the human place on it. It occurs to me that the edge, for Mittermeier, is not some faraway place, but the hope that remains despite the undeniable ruin flooding our newsfeeds. Hugh Francis Anderson, Sidetracked
"Published by Hemeria, HOPE is organized into six chapters that highlight the myriad ways humanity and nature are fundamentally intertwined. [ ] Throughout, Mittermeiers bold photographs of wildlife, remarkable landscapes, tribal rituals, and family bonds serve as reminders of incredible beauty, resilience, and determination." Kate Mothes, Colossal
"Hope does not need to be merely a passive wish, it can be an active force to propel us forward, fueling our determination to defy the odds and carve our own destiny. Its the flicker of possibility that dances in our hearts, reminding us that even when facing challenging circumstances, there exists the potential for inspiration and renewal. I am honored to join Cristina as she shares her remarkable and important work with the world." Robert Redford, extract from the foreword
