MY PHOTOGRAPHY

My photographic work has been published locally and internationally in numerous magazines and books, including the world renowned Remembering Wildlife series. My images have been awarded in regional and International competitions.​

For the last few years I have worked as a freelance photographer and the head of the stills department for the Natural History Film Unit, where my images are being used in numerous ongoing projects for the National Geographic. In 2017 I received the honor of becoming a brand Ambassador for Sigma South Africa.

Minimal Mara scenes. I always love searching for a wide-angle shot on safari, largely to justify always bringing a 24-70mm with me!

Catching flights not felines…

Lions make catching our flight out of the Kalahari desert a little challenging. This is a proper Botswana safari experience

Proud to announce that I have not one, but two images awarded in this year’s European wildlife photographer of the year. Two completely different images, proving that it doesn’t matter the size of the animal when you are out on safari.
