Southern Red Bishop Side-Eye
I’m going through old photos, and found this photo of a Southern Red Bishop eating and giving me the side-eye, taken at the Marievale Bird Sanctuary. This was taken before I joined DPC and learnt to shoot RAW, so it was shot as a JPEG, which means I didn’t do a lot of editing on it, just cropping and some texture…Read More

Lighthouse Rust
Another photo I took recently at the Cape Recife Lighthouse in Port Elizabeth. I loved the texture of the metal and rust on this sign.

About Me

Bruna Mentrup
TUTOR
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.
