Photographer takes animal selfies for a living

Allan Dixon graduated in computer engineering and tussled with a slew of failed start-ups before turning to what he calls “adventure content marketing.” After defeating half a million or so other competitors in the ‘Outback Adventurer’ division of the Best Jobs In The World competition (a campaign by Tourism Australia), Dixon now spends his days living his best life — and getting truly inspiring selfies with animals.  Quokka die-hards may remember that Allan Dixon is responsible for The Quokka Book — an adorable concept that sadly, didn’t reach it’s kickstarter goal. We dare say a book of animal selfies would do even better. Dixon recently announced that he’s about to up the volume of videos and jealousy-inspiring photos he publishes. Petition to get him focussing solely on animal selfies by 2017? We vote yes.
