We’re so excited to feature your work on Docuvist! We would love to be able to share the most current bio and donation resources for our readers so they know how to best support you and your work. It would be a great help if you could please respond to our outreach email so we can update this filmmaker bio page.
Thanks in advance 😊
— Chloe @ Docuvist
Taylor is a documentary filmmaker and photojournalist, and avid explorer of stories and landscapes, and above all else, the human heart.
Her focus is bringing new perspectives and deeper public understanding to the complexities of climate change, conservation, human rights, environmental justice and extractive industries. What matters to her are the people within these stories and their own experience of co-creating those narratives, breaking away from traditionally extractive forms of storytelling.
She received a Masters in Environmental Management from the Yale School of Forestry where she led the Yale Environmental Film Festival for two years before moving into a career as a full time director, producer, and shooter.
