Nearly six years ago, Dutch/Swedish photographer Geert Weggen found a fox on his front porch. He immediately ran back into his home to get some meat for the animal.
The fox started coming back every day for more food. Weggen took this gift from mother nature as an opportunity to start taking more photographs and begin his career as an animal photographer.
He now specializes in photographing red squirrels and other magical animals!

Geert Weggen says himself:
“By the end of a second week, the fox would come to the balcony where it interacted with various props I used for photography.
Soon before late, a Russian bird paid me a visit and continued on doing so daily. Suddenly, my balcony had become a studio filled with nature props, cameras, mirrors, etc.
The bird followed me, and I followed the bird with my camera, as it searched for hidden food in scenes that I had created.
Eventually, red squirrels appeared, and they still come daily to my outside studio. Little did I know back then that it would become my living.
Since last year I have been organizing Squirrel workshops at home. These workshops are held to occur two times a year when the young squirrels arrive.
A maximum of 3 participants can join this 5-day workshop.”

While Weggen’s obsession with red squirrels may seem strange on the outside, it has actually given us a view of a wondrous world we know very little about.
We think we know the lives of these squirrels, Weggen is able to capture them in ways we’ve only seen before in Disney movies.
His photography is truly magical!

Most people are quite used to the sight of squirrels, but the ways in which Weggen is able to capture them, makes these little creatures feel much more human like.
Never thought i’d be more in love with squirrels than I am right now!
hey are just all so adorable!
Watching them play with these tiny human like objects and working together brings a smile to my face.
