| Following a diving accident travelling Australia in 82, I had a quadriplegic C4/5 injury. I was paralysed from the shoulders down and left with no grip in my hands. Unable to pick up my camera, I gave up photography for a year but then realised I was still seeing pictures, choosing images in my head. The only thing I lacked was the physical ability to use a camera. I realised this was a ridiculous reason for giving up and I wrote to the manufacturer of my camera and asked if they could help with adaptations. To my delight they replied positively and so started the process of taking pictures again.

| I have always been passionate about the outdoors, as a youth my days were filled with activities like riding dirt bikes, skateboarding, surfing and scuba diving. Learning to dive at age 10 only added to my love of the ocean. In 2008 I had an accident that left me a quadriplegic and in 2014 I became interested in drone photography and videography, although I wasn't sure I would be able to use the remote controller due to my reduced hand function. Since then though I've been lucky to have my work featured in many prominent media outlets and publications and have also won the Western Australia 'Young Achiever Award' in 2018. I hope you enjoy what you see...! |

| Calling all wheelchair photographers! My main interest is talking to fellow wheelchair photographers about the challenges we face by being limited to just the sitting position. I'm fairly new to wildlife photography and so I'm looking for tips on this subject. My hope is to develop a community of photographers so we can exchange thoughts on our seemingly small group.

| This photography blog is designed for photographers with disabilities. If anyone has ever tried to find quality adaptive equipment to allow someone with a disability to take photos, then you know how little is commercially available. So I hope to invite any and all rolling shutterbugs to contribute a biography and share with everyone the adaptions you've made to your camera, wheelchair, etc. If you'd like to contribute, please drop me a note |

| My name is Loren−Worthington. This web site is primarily a place for me to post my photography, and 2nd to offer some coverage of the Arizona wheelchair sports scene.
I'm 45 years old and have lived in Arizona most of my life. At age 21, I hit a great double, or better put a terrible triple and damaged my spine sliding into 3rd base. I was out.
Branded a C-5/6 quad, I did my rehab at Craig Hospital and give them plenty of credit for my current lot in life. They are definitely the ones who taught me to move on and move up. And to roll over anyone who says you cant do something. This blog and my photography is proof it works.

| People with disabilities make up about 20% of the population, but are featured in less than 2% of the images we see in the media. The images we see are far from real, and far from enough. Let’s change that.
Oath, the National Disability Leadership Alliance and Getty Images are proud to announce The Disability Collection, a dedicated collection of images that break stereotypes and authentically portray people with disabilities in everyday life.
While we cannot change what people publish or click on overnight, we can provide better alternatives for those looking to create more authentic representation.
Getty Images and Oath will be providing resources and opportunities that encourage photographers to capture this imagery, promoting disability representation in front of and behind the camera. |

| Conceptus Camera Switches are the first to be originally designed specifically to meet the needs of skydiving photographers. Both the Bite Switch and the Tongue Switch are mouth-operated, totally electronic shutter releases for use with any still camera with a remote shutter release jack. They are compact, durable, and simple to use. Both plug directly into the camera without need for a separate switch module. Conceptus Camera Switches are not adaptations of switches from other applications, therefore their designs are not compromised by excessive parts or circuitry (photo to left of 'bite switch').
