Biography

Tony Wu is an American behavioral marine photographer who has spent over two decades documenting marine life, specializing in cetaceans — particularly sperm whales, humpback whales, and orcas — as well as spawning aggregations and marine behavioral phenomena. Described by Eric Cheng as “our good friend,” Wu was a core member of the Wetpixel inner circle and co-led multiple expeditions with Cheng between 2006 and 2012 ([3]).

Wu’s lifestyle revolves entirely around ocean photography. In a 2018 Lifehacker interview, he described his routine: “In the past 10 or 15 years I’ve been on the road somewhere between nine and 11 months a year. I come [home] mostly to drop off clothes and get new clothes and gear” ([4]). He noted that the marine phenomena he had been observing were shifting: “I’ve been dealing with nature for over two decades, so certainly there’s been a lot of variation. But it cycles in and out. The things I’ve seen [in the past year and a half] are outside the band of what I’ve experienced.”

His photographic philosophy emphasizes originality and emotional connection over technical perfection. In his 2010 Wetpixel interview following his first Wildlife Photographer of the Year win, he cited Ansel Adams as his primary influence: “Completely different disciplines, black-and-white landscapes versus color underwater images, but the same nonetheless. Many of Ansel Adams’s images have that intangible ‘Wow!’ factor… He produced images that aren’t just burned onto a piece of paper, but forever embedded in my mind” ([5]).

Wu’s advice to aspiring photographers was characteristically direct: “First, be original, and don’t follow the crowd… I almost always do the opposite. It’s more difficult, but pays off in the long run. Second, don’t obsess over photo equipment. Make the most of the gear you have, and keep in mind that 99% of cameras are better than 99% of photographers, so if there’s a problem, it’s usually not the camera’s fault!” ([6]).

FiNS Magazine Connection

Wu was closely associated with FiNS Magazine, an Asian diving publication. At the 2006 ADEX show in Singapore, Eric Cheng described spending much of his time “with the FiNS crew (Tony Wu, Edmund Tee, Paul Lees)” ([7]). Wu gave a “Digital Duo” talk at Canon’s Digital Media Hub at that show, speaking about photographing whales alongside Cheng who talked about sharks. Wu served as a judge for the 1st Annual DEEP Indonesia Photo Contest (2006), co-organized by Wetpixel and DivePhotoGuide, alongside Eric Cheng and Berkley White ([8]). He was also referenced as a source for gear news, with a 2009 article on the Zillion Canon 5D Mark II housing credited “via Tony Wu / FiNS” ([9]).

Humpback Whale Research in Tonga

Wu conducted a multi-year citizen-science study of humpback whale calves in the Kingdom of Tonga, spending over a month each year in the calving grounds near Vava’u. In 2008, he blogged weekly from Tonga for Wetpixel across a six-week season, producing detailed behavioral observations that combined scientific rigor with vivid storytelling ([10]).

His Week One report demonstrated the depth of his field knowledge, analyzing heat runs (male competition for mating rights), interpreting behavioral patterns to explain why breeding-age whales had moved to open sea, and correlating whale behavior with incoming weather patterns. He described how a Tongan boat captain’s ability to predict bad weather via headaches seemed to correlate with whale departures, noting: “I’ve heard from Tongan friends for many years that the whales dislike bad weather” ([11]).

During his final week in 2008, Wu and a network of boats from Whale Watch Vava’u, Dive Vava’u, and Sailing Safaris successfully reunited a separated humpback calf with its mother — a coordinated effort involving five boats that took over 45 minutes. Wu analyzed the incident in detail, consulting with a cetacean researcher in Hawaii and concluding that male whales forcibly separating mothers from calves was a likely cause ([12]).

By 2008, Wu and his collaborator Takaji Ochi had identified 16 calves in Vava’u during a single season, challenging the prevailing local belief that only 6-8 calves visited each year. They produced a PDF catalog with photographs and descriptions of each identified individual ([13]).

In 2009, Wu’s calf catalog expanded to 26 photographic IDs (up from 16 in 2008), plus 25 additional unconfirmed sightings. He invited public participation, requesting that anyone with calf sightings contact him ([14]).

By 2011, Wu released a formal summary of his 2010 season results, documenting 24 juvenile humpbacks and noting “interesting patterns emerging from the data” when compared across three years ([15]).

The culmination of this work came in 2014, when Wu identified a female humpback he dubbed “super mommy” — an individual documented with seven separate calves over a 15-year period. The identification was a triumph of crowd-sourced citizen science, drawing on photos and footage from multiple sources spanning 1998 to 2014: “Darren’s and JJ’s videos in 2014; photos taken by Kirsty Bowe and me in 2012; photos taken by Nonie Silver and Karen Stone in 2009; photos taken by me in 2008; photos taken by me in 2005; BBC stock footage taken in 2002 that Michele Hall helped me track down, which was part of a 2009 NatGeo documentary I watched late one night in Palau… photos taken by Claudia Jocher in 1998 and 1999” ([16]).

Wu was in Vava’u in August 2009 when the Princess Ashika ferry sank, killing approximately 26 people, mostly women and children. He wrote about the impact on the small nation of 110,000 people, where “everyone seems to know one another” and “just about everyone here, me included, knows someone who’s been affected” ([17]).

Sperm Whale Work

Wu spent 17 years studying and photographing sperm whales, becoming known as a “whale whisperer” ([18]). His sperm whale imagery earned him multiple Wildlife Photographer of the Year awards.

In 2016, Wu wrote for bioGraphic magazine about encountering a large breeding aggregation of sperm whales, describing hundreds of animals socializing: “Bumping, jostling, and rubbing themselves against one another, they were exuberantly tactile, their behavior appeared almost euphoric. I felt like a gatecrasher at a wedding” ([19]). He noted that the reasons for these large gatherings remained unknown, and that despite the end of commercial whaling, ship strikes and plastic ingestion still threatened the species.

In an essay for Outdoor Photographer magazine, Wu described the visceral experience of being among aggregating sperm whales off eastern Sri Lanka: “The water is inevitably filled with a staggering cacophony of sound — clicking, clacking, snapping, popping, buzzing, squealing. The whales rub against one another, appearing to luxuriate in tactile exuberance. And, for whatever reason, they often defecate so much that the water becomes opaque” ([20]).

Wetpixel Expeditions

Ogasawara Sperm Whale Expedition (October 2009)

Co-led with Eric Cheng, this was the first Wetpixel sperm whale expedition. Six participants traveled to the Ogasawara Islands (1,000 km south of Tokyo) on a 42-foot custom-built cetacean-encounter vessel chartered from operator Sea-Tac. The trip required a 25.5-hour ferry ride from Tokyo, and Wu served as translator and logistics coordinator, navigating an environment where “very little English is spoken” ([21], [22]).

The expedition was remarkably productive despite two typhoons. Highlights included:

Other expedition members included Douglas Seifert, Emily Irving, Julia Sumerling, and Emiko Miyazaki. Wu, Emiko, Douglas, Emily, and Julia extended their stay for an additional ferry cycle (six days) after Cheng departed ([25]). Wu subsequently published multiple blog posts about the expedition, including pieces on identifying sperm whales and measuring giant squid arms.

PNG Eastern Fields Expeditions (2008, 2009, 2012)

Wu was a passionate advocate for Papua New Guinea’s Eastern Fields, a remote atoll he called one of the best dive sites in the world: “Anyone who knows me has probably heard me rant and rave about the Eastern Fields. It’s just awesome… The lack of pressure from people means that the reefs are truly pristine, and fish number in the gazillions. Visibility is almost always excellent… In all of human history, only a few hundred people have ever dived the Eastern Fields” ([26]).

Wu visited Loloata and Eastern Fields aboard the MV Golden Dawn (Captain Craig DeWit) in early 2008 ([27]). He co-organized the 2009 Wetpixel PNG Eastern Fields expedition with Cheng, which was announced in late 2008 ([28]). In 2010, Wu produced a short film about Eastern Fields available as an HD podcast via DiveFilm on iTunes, including an interview with Captain Craig ([29]).

In 2012, Wu led both legs of the Wetpixel PNG Eastern Fields expedition solo, during which the team explored and named four new dive sites. He wrote: “This remote atoll and associated reefs have some of the best dive sites in the world, including one site that is the most action-packed reef dive I’ve ever experienced. And despite the fact that Captain Craig has been visiting the area every year since 1992, there are still many parts of the Eastern Fields he’s never dived” ([30]).

Lembeh Workshop (March 2007)

Wu offered a free informal workshop aboard the Archipelago Adventurer I in Lembeh Strait, providing advice to fellow photographers at no charge ([31]).

Ambon Night Safari (November 2010)

Co-led with Eric Cheng, this expedition to Ambon targeted critter photography, including the elusive Maluku frogfish (Histiophryne psychedelica). Wu reviewed the Totomega insect eye lens during the trip, comparing it to the similar Inon lens and finding both “a challenge to shoot, but the unique perspective can make the effort worthwhile” ([32], [33]).

Indonesia (November-December 2010)

Wu and Cheng led the Ambon leg of a two-part Indonesia expedition (Nov 7-16), while Cheng led the Raja Ampat/Misool leg (Nov 20-Dec 2) ([34]).

Conservation Advocacy

Wu used his platform to address marine conservation issues. In 2014, he wrote about ocean trash, highlighting the complexity of the problem and the hypocrisy of wealthy nations: “Everything that goes into the ocean comes back to us in some manner, sooner or later. Probably sooner” ([35]).

His Full Frame feature on Australian sea lions at Carnac Island, Western Australia (2013) combined striking imagery with conservation messaging. He documented the endangered species (8,000-12,000 individuals, declining) and the disturbing behavior of local boaters who “blast loud music, kick sand at the sea lions, throw objects at them, pose small children in front of large bulls for snapshots, and much worse” while local authorities did little to intervene ([36]).

His sperm whale work also carried conservation messages. Despite the 1986 ban on commercial whaling, Wu noted that ship strikes and plastic ingestion still made the species’ survival uncertain ([37]).

Equipment and Gear Reviews

Wu reviewed underwater photography equipment for Wetpixel, including:

His competition-winning gear included a Canon EOS 5D Mark III with 15mm f/2.8 lens in a Zillion housing with Pro-One optical dome port (WPOTY 2017), and a Nikon D800 with Sigma 15mm f/2.8 in a Nauticam housing (WPOTY 2018 Highly Commended) ([41], [42]).

Awards and Competition Results

Wildlife Photographer of the Year

Other Awards

Publications

Wu’s book Silent Symphony, co-authored with William Tan (~2001), was structured as an extended musical metaphor comparing the ocean to a symphony in four movements: Discovery, Fascination, Passion, and Epiphany. Reviewer Willy Volk called it a “dynamite photo essay” and “an important document explaining why ocean conservation is imperative.” The book was one of only a handful to win the Grand Prize for Books at Antibes, later joined by Andrea and Antonella Ferrari (2004) and Mirko Zanni ([50], [51]).

Competition Judging

Wu served as a judge for numerous underwater photography competitions:

Wu also published competition advice in 2011 on his blog, recommending photographers avoid copying others’ styles, ensure images are in the correct category, and resist using trendy techniques simply because they are popular ([58]).

Speaking and Events

Friendships and Community

Wu had close relationships with several members of the Wetpixel community. He was a longtime friend of David Cheung of ScubaCam in Singapore. Adam Hanlon recalled a memorable incident: “His first experience of flying a drone resulted in some very bemused Singaporeans watching Tony Wu, David, and myself throw sticks at the drone that had ‘landed’ in a tree” ([64]).

Wu was featured in the Wetpixel “Ask the Pros” series on backup strategies, where he described himself as “permanently disoriented and more often than not, waterlogged” ([65]). He also contributed to the wide-angle photography edition of the same series ([66]).

Forum Activity

Under the username “tonywu,” Wu was active on the Wetpixel forums from 2005 to 2012, posting 155 times across 27 threads. His most popular threads included “Humpback Vid” (31 replies), “Nothing Wrong with Sharkfin?” (19 replies), “A Very Hungry Frogfish” (19 replies), “Sea spider” (16 replies), and “North Sulawesi” (12 replies).
