About

Céline Haeberly is a Chinese-adopted photographer raised by American-Italian and Swiss professors living in Orange County, California.

Céline grew up in woodsy Connecticut, studied in Washington D.C., New York City, and Paris, and lived abroad in Thailand. Her practice and imagery reflect her diverse curiosities, international background, and layered experiences of changing environments. Her recent work explores the relationship between people and nature.

Céline’s pursuit of meaningful work and admiration for conservation storytelling inspired a collaborative, long-term project with scientists researching endangered coastal species such as the California Least Tern. She uses her images in art-focused conservation projects to explore the human side of conservation and was selected for the FOMARES League of Conservation Photographers. In her past life, she was the lead in-house photographer for a global brand— ASICS Digital & Global Marketing— and received her B.A. in Sociology and French from Barnard College of Columbia University.
