Jochen Lempert (born 1958 in Moers) is a German photographer whose work is about the world of nature and animals.
Lempert first studied as a biologist before turning to photography in the early 1990s.
Accordingly, his pictures are marked with scientific aspects, not only referring to his motives but more to the whole process of photography.
He has built his reputation on scientific publications.
