    The Matopos Mountains, 35km south of Bulawayo in southern Zimbabwe, should be on your bucket list as a photographer. Unfortunately, we did not have time to stop long enough for photos; we had to cross the border back into South Africa before dark. I took a few snaps to show you the beauty of our planet.

    It’s known for the Matobo Hills, a range of balancing rock formations created by erosion of the granite plateau.

About Me

I started my wildlife photography journey with nothing but a passion for capturing what I had seen unfold before me for years.

Determined I could achieve that, I set out with the most basic equipment, and eventually, my efforts were rewarded.

I, fortunately, love travel and being in my own company, so I spend months on the road in perfect partnership with the animals, great light, and the landscape. My confidence grew, and my images started to speak for themselves; so did my range of equipment, as did the awards.

My proudest moment was being made a Licentiate by the Photography Society of South Africa. I take so much pride in the steps I have taken, and it gives me such joy to see my work in magazines and hanging on walls of game lodges across Africa.

My philosophy is that anyone can acquire technical skills in photography. Still, you need heart, passion and a deep connection with what is around you to capture the finest of what Mother Nature has on offer.
