Meet the team
Shirley Bendle
Photographer
Shirley lives in the Yarra Valley, revelling in the surrounding nature, and she is passionate about our unique wildlife and landscape.
Her University Degree in Graphic Design led her to a keen interest in photography, which developed to focus primarily on wildlife.
With a concern for the fragility of our natural environment and animal welfare, Shirley has created several projects bringing attention to, and promoting, the care of wildlife and nature.
Joining the Vets For Compassion team, Shirley is able to combine two of her passions; wildlife and photography, through which she continues to support our mission and raise awareness about animal rescue and care.
