How a nature photographer lives in the moment | Tony Baldasaro | TEDxPortsmouth

What makes a truly great photograph? For Tony Baldasaro, it’s not about the gear, the lighting, or even the subject—it’s about presence. In this thoughtful and deeply personal TEDx talk, award-winning nature photographer Tony Baldasaro reveals how letting go of rigid expectations allowed him to reconnect with the wonder of the natural world—and capture moments that matter.

From losing his wallet mid-flight to photographing cows in the New England countryside, Tony’s stories remind us that life’s most meaningful images aren’t staged—they’re sensed. With humor and heart, he encourages us all to find our own creative “lens” that invites awe, slows time, and deepens connection.

Tony blends his background in biology and public education with over 20 years of photographic experience. Whether you're a seasoned photographer or simply craving stillness in a fast-paced world, this talk is your invitation to be still—and be moved.

Tony, a native New Englander, is the owner of TB3 Photography and is passionate about capturing the natural beauty of landscapes and wildlife through photography. After studying biology and ornithology in college, he spent nearly 30 years in public education, sharing his love for the natural world and his belief in everyone’s ability to learn and grow. With over 20 years of nature photography experience, Tony now finds joy in helping others improve their skills. His true passion lies in preserving fleeting natural moments with his camera.
