About Paul HiltonGeoChange Ambassador · Conservation photojournalist
Internationally acclaimed conservation photojournalist Paul Hilton is a wildlife crime consultant who has partnered with some of the largest conservation not-for-profits in the world, including the Rainforest Action Network, Greenpeace, WildAid and the Oceanic Preservation Society. Over three decades he has documented deforestation and the illegal wildlife trade in Sumatra's Leuser ecosystem, followed the shark-fin trade from the ports of Yemen to the high seas of the Pacific and Indian oceans and the dried-seafood markets of Southern China and Hong Kong, documented a newly discovered blue whale migration and the satellite tagging of humpback whales, and worked on sustainable pole-and-line tuna fisheries worldwide. His footage of the illegal wildlife trade features heavily in Racing Extinction, directed by Oscar winner Louie Psihoyos, and his work has appeared in documentaries for Discovery Channel and Animal Planet. His photograph of 100 tonnes of seized ivory is the image GeoChange was founded on.
- World Press Photo award 2012 (shark-fin trade)
- Wildlife Photographer of the Year 2012, 2014, 2016 and 2020
- Asian Geographic Best of the Decade

Material
Fine Art Paper
Hahnemühle Hemp · The Hemp Edition
A lightly textured, matte archival paper. It holds fine detail and reads as a print rather than a photograph, with no glare from the surface.
- Archival giclée pigment printing
- Even white border on all four sides, rolled or framed
- Framed in dark oak or light oak, or rolled
- Cannot be stretched: paper does not wrap a stretcher bar
Museum Grade Canvas
Canson ProCanvas 385gsm
A heavier museum-grade canvas with more depth and contrast. The weave gives the image body, which is why the larger sizes and the statement walls are almost always canvas.
- Archival giclée pigment printing
- Stretched with a mirrored gallery wrap, float-framed in oak, or rolled
- Hand-stretched to order over a timber bar
Both materials carry the same numbered edition of 111 per size and the same replacement cover if the piece arrives damaged.
Finish
Gallery-wrapped over a timber stretcher bar with a mirrored wrap: the sides continue the image, so nothing is lost from the face. Ready to hang.
A deep natural timber frame, ready to hang. Canvas is float-framed: about a 2 cm shadow gap between the work and the timber on every side. Paper sits inside an even white border, then the frame.
The same construction in a warm pale timber. It disappears into lighter, calmer rooms where dark oak would read as a statement of its own.
Unframed and unstretched, shipped in a tube for your own framer. Fine art paper arrives with an even white border on all four sides. Free standard Australian delivery on rolled prints.
Only the combinations we actually make are offered. Choosing Fine Art Paper removes Stretched Canvas from the list rather than showing it as unavailable.

One day, you might find yourself on the other side of the photograph.
Get in the water. See the animal in front of you, not behind glass. Journey+ is the part of GeoChange we're building for exactly that: experiences with the people who made these images. Collectors hear first.
Journey+ is in development. Nothing here is an offer of travel or an experience.

Good to know
Everything else a collector asks before ordering.
How to choose a size and finish
Which size? Above a two-seater sofa most collectors choose 26″ × 40″ or 20″ × 30″; a hallway or bedroom wall suits 18″ × 24″; a desk or shelf 12 × 18. Use the scale slide in the gallery.
Which finish? Stretched canvas for depth without a frame; oak-framed for the full presentation; rolled if you have a framer you love. Fine art paper is framed or rolled: it cannot be stretched.
First time collecting art online? Your piece is printed to order, checked before dispatch, packed for transit and replaced if damaged. Colours are calibrated to print as they appear on a good screen.
