Field experience built on real time in the wild
A photo safari grounded in years of guiding — patient, unhurried, and led by real knowledge of where the wildlife is.
Reading the wild takes time
Great wildlife photography isn't about luck — it's about knowing the terrain, the animals' patterns, and when to wait versus when to move. Before your session, I'll walk you through what to expect: timing, locations, and what gear (or none at all) you'll need. During the shoot, we move at the pace the wildlife sets, not a schedule — sometimes that means sitting quietly for twenty minutes waiting for a pride to stir.
What to expect
Field-tested timing
Shoots are planned around when animals are actually active — early mornings and late afternoons.
Hands-on guidance
I'll help you find the right angle, light, and moment — whether you're shooting on a DSLR or your phone.
Real, unstaged images
Nothing here is set up. What you photograph is wildlife behaving exactly as it does when no one's watching.
What happens after
Planning your session
Message me through the Contact page with your dates and what you're hoping to photograph. I'll suggest parks and timing based on what's active — Mara migration season, Amboseli's elephants, or Nakuru's birdlife.
Safari day
We head out early to catch the best light. Vehicles are set up for photography — roof hatch open, bean bag support available — so you're ready the moment something happens.
Editing and selection
If you've booked me for a dedicated photo safari, I'll share my own shots from the day within two to four weeks via a private online gallery.
Prints
Want any of those images — or others from my portfolio — as prints? Order directly through the Services page, and prints ship to your door.
Preparing for your session
A few things that help things go smoothly:
- Bring a zoom lens if you have one (200mm+); I can advise on rentals
- Neutral, non-bright clothing works best around wildlife
- Extra memory cards and batteries — there's no charging mid-drive
- Come with realistic expectations; wildlife doesn't perform on schedule
- Sun protection and a hat — mornings start early
- Ask questions any time — I'm happy to talk through camera settings in the field
