About Molly Condit

“Every place, every animal and every human attached to a situation brings new and complex layers that must be peeled away with thought and consideration. Pushing myself to create images that spark conversation is always at the forefront of my mind when documenting.”

Molly Condit is an American photographer specializing in commercial photography and animal photojournalism (APJ).

She began her professional career in the post production field in 2006, working primarily in broadcast media and notably, as an assistant film editor for the Oscar-winning feature length documentary “Man on Wire” (2009) under Editor Jinx Godfrey. After a short stint in the veterinary world and forming her own jewelry design company, Molly found her calling as a photographer and documentary filmmaker. Over the last decade, she has cemented a passion for documenting humans and especially animals, and the inextricable bonds between them.

Her commercial portfolio stretches from producing stills for advertising campaigns to capturing behind the scenes production magic for both client and agency as well non profit organizations. She has worked with a range of clients including Capital One, Fisher Investments, Veterinary Emergency Group, Meta and the University of Arizona, among others.

Molly’s work as an animal photojournalist has led to collaborations with domestic rescue organizations and sanctuaries as well as commissioned assignments abroad taking her from war zones to factory farms and beyond. In March 2022, she documented animal transports facilitated by PETA Germany in Ukraine and Poland, collaborating with Ukrainian rescues on the ground to bring displaced companion animals safely across the borders into the EU. This work was featured in National Geographic and has led to ongoing documentation and development of a first-ever archive dedicated to tracking animals in armed conflict for which she served as a panelist at Harvard Animal Law Week 2023. She has also documented the use of animals in various contexts, from religious rituals, entertainment settings and traditional farming practices in the United States and South America. She is a contributing photographer and filmmaker for We Animals Media whose stock site platform provides free visuals to animal rights organizations.

Currently based in Arizona, she’s fortunate enough to live with rescue felines who remind her daily just how lucky she is to be their human.
