Global Recognition Award — 2026
A Leader in Conservation & Craft
Of 15,000 entrants each year, only 5.8% of applicants receive a Global Recognition Award — and SNAPSBYMYLO™ has been named a 2026 winner in the Leadership category for exceptional contributions to wildlife and heritage photography, conservation education, and business leadership.
The award recognises how SNAPSBYMYLO™ has combined technical photographic skill with a mission to educate and inspire audiences worldwide. Its images have been published by respected international outlets and shared by major organisations, including National Geographic, giving its conservation message a wide reach. The founder built the Dying To Live Conservation Trust to make wildlife education accessible regardless of financial circumstances and to provide funding opportunities for aspiring conservationists who could not otherwise afford this level of training.
Judges noted that this combination of art, education, and business leadership is precisely the kind of world-class contribution the Leadership category was designed to recognise. Applications were evaluated by impartial industry experts using the Rasch measurement model — a rigorous methodology that creates objective scoring regardless of category or field.
"Snapsbymylo shows what happens when leadership is measured not by titles but by the tangible change an organization creates in its field."

Cold Water Club Foundation
Marine Conservation Ambassador
In recognition of his commitment to wildlife conservation and environmental education, Mylo Romero was appointed Marine Conservation Ambassador for the Cold Water Club Foundation — a UK foundation that brings together a community of people connected by the sea, promoting a deeper appreciation of the natural environment through cold water experiences, education and responsible stewardship of Britain's coastline.
The Foundation believes that meaningful connections with the ocean inspire people to value and protect it. By encouraging people to experience the coastline responsibly, it aims to foster a greater understanding of the marine environment and the importance of preserving it for future generations.
As Marine Conservation Ambassador, Mylo Romero supports this mission through wildlife photography, educational storytelling and public engagement, helping to raise awareness of the UK's remarkable marine ecosystems and the species that depend on them. His work reflects a simple belief: the more people connect with nature, the more likely they are to protect it.
Passion & Principles
A Lifelong Commitment to Wildlife
Animal Welfare
Every animal encountered in the field is treated with respect, patience and minimal disturbance. No baiting, no staged scenarios, no interference — only authentic, ethical encounters observed on the animal’s terms. Welfare always comes before the photograph.
Conservation Through Imagery
Photography is a powerful tool for conservation storytelling. By capturing the character, vulnerability and beauty of wildlife, images can inspire action, raise awareness and generate support for species that cannot speak for themselves.
Scientific Integrity
A background in wildlife biology ensures every field observation is grounded in ecological understanding — from reading animal behaviour and habitat cues to contributing meaningful records that support real conservation work.
Lifelong Dedication
This is not a hobby or a job. It is a lifelong commitment to protecting the natural world, understanding its complexities and using every available platform — visual, educational and scientific — to make a measurable difference for wildlife.
The Work
Beyond the Camera
Working across wildlife, landscapes, editorial and everyday life, Mylo Romero's images are recognised for their controlled colour, rich blacks and cinematic restraint — creating photographs that feel timeless rather than edited.
Alongside private commissions and commercial work, Mylo Romero produces editorial photography and visual storytelling for La Maison Culture and Beautifully British, documenting places, people and experiences through a considered, atmospheric lens.
SNAPSBYMYLO™ extends that same approach beyond the camera through fine art prints, premium Lightroom presets, photography education and curated editorial features — with conservation at the heart of everything.
