A MESSAGE FROM TOMMY'S FAMILY

It is with great sadness we tell you that Tommy died in 2021.

This is a tremendous loss for us, his friends and colleagues. We have maintained his website in the interim because it is such an expression of his photography talents, creativity, travels and adventurous spirit. Exploring the website is a chance to experience some of the beautiful places, marine life, ocean and underwater scenes Tommy captured with his camera and found joy in sharing. We are deeply thankful that Tommy's visionary legacy endures through his captivating photography, and we feel privileged to make his prints available for purchase in the gallery.

Profits from photo sales will be donated to the Tommy Schultz Impact Media Fellowship Fund which is sponsored by the Large Marine Vertebrate Research Institute (LAMAVE), an NGO based in the Philippines, and one which Tommy supported. Please visit their website to read more about this remarkable organization, the fellowship and related photo contest in Tommy's name.
