Wildlife photography isn’t just about capturing an image; for me, it’s about understanding the context in which it exists. I like to photograph wildlife in a way which reflects the behaviour and interactions of species within their habitat, offering a glimpse into the broader dynamics of the natural world. The aim is to communicate something of the processes and relationships that shape the landscape and its inhabitants.
From 2020 through to 2023 I was honoured to be an Official FUJIFILM UK X-Photographer and I continue to work with their team in an ambassador role. I’m also an ambassador for specialist camera filter manufacturer, Formatt-Hitech.
In addition to my creative work, I lead immersive photography tours with African Photography Safaris and Penda Photo Tours, sharing my passion and expertise with fellow enthusiasts. I am available for a range of professional services, including commissioned photography and filmmaking projects, workshop and tour leadership, and editorial contributions.
“Keystone species and predators are stewards of our ecosystems. They play a crucial role in maintaining balance within their habitats.
Their survival is deeply intertwined with the health of their habitats. By protecting them, we preserve the very systems that support the wider ecosystem. It’s our connection to nature and our responsibility to future generations.”
