About
Hello: My name is Beth Hotchkiss!
I consider myself local to....
Truckee, CA
Liberty Lake, WA
& San Luis Obispo, CA (so far)
After graduating from Cal Poly- San Luis Obispo, I am now embracing all of the opportunities (and uncertainties) that come with post-graduation! This year, you can find me sipping chai, studying for the GRE, and sending out cover letters. 2018 will definitely be a year of hard work as I pursue my passions for the arts & sciences. Wish me luck as I embark on this interdisciplinary journey!
To keep up to date with my progress, you can read my blog. Or, if you like visuals, you can check out my photography. If you would rather escape into another world, I have some books that I could recommend too.
Best,
Beth Hotchkiss

This page highlights some of my recent photography endeavors. Enjoy!
California Conservation Corps
Images and stories from across California
In May of 2023, I landed a full-time job as a public information officer with the California Conservation Corps! In this role, I use images and storytelling to amplify the voices of young adults enrolled in the organization's fire, forestry, fisheries, natural resources, trails, energy, and culinary programs. By developing engaging content, I hope to spark people's interest in conserving California's environment and highlight the many ways that the CCC can transform lives.
Mariri Wildlife Sanctuary
Alto Paraíso de Goiás, Brazil
In the fall of 2022, I participated in a month-long Alto Artist Residency Program at the Mariri Wildlife Sanctuary. Each morning I woke up to the sound of cicadas humming and birds chirping. It was the perfect place to immerse myself in both nature and art! Enchanted by the story of the land and people living there, I developed a fundraising video to help the property owner, Marianne, amplify her impact.
Tanzania Youth Safari
Serengeti and Tarangire National Parks
In the spring of 2022, I joined Karine Aigner on a Youth Safari to Tanzania. For this adventure, I rented a long lens to help me zoom in close to the wildlife. It was my first time using such equipment! Unfortunately, halfway through the trip my lens malfunctioned and hard drive crashed. Thanks to the help of kind friends, however, all was not lost! I was able to borrow new equipment and recover. Enjoy these moments from the (second half) of the trip :)
