The Launstein Family’s wildlife photography has been featured on exhibit across Canada and in more than 70 national museums and galleries in six continents, including the Smithsonian in Washington, DC and the Natural History Museum in London, UK. Their Fine Art Limited Edition Prints bring nature's beauty to collectors' homes worldwide. They are delighted to share their love of animals with others through their line of prints, calendars, greeting cards and giftware. A quote from the oldest daughter, Jenaya, sums up the family’s passion for what they do: “I hope my pictures help people care more about the animals I have the privilege of photographing.”
