WILDLIFE PHOTOGRAPHER | PHOTOGRAPHY SAFARI LEADER | WRITER
I’m Alan Hewitt, wildlife photographer and photography safari leader specialising in ethical and sustainable photography safaris in sub-Saharan Africa.
Wildlife photography isn’t just about capturing an image. For me, it’s about understanding the context in which subjects exist. I like photographing wildlife in a way which reflects the behaviour and interactions of species within their habitat. It offers a glimpse into the dynamics of the natural world.
I combine technical expertise with fieldcraft knowledge to offer guests meaningful encounters and world-class photographic guidance, in remote wildlife locations.
From 2020 through to 2023 I was honoured to be an Official FUJIFILM UK X-Photographer and I continue to work with the team in an ambassador role.
Alongside my own work, I am a director, photography and guide with African Photography Safaris and freelance guide for Penda Photo Tours, leading immersive photography safaris and sharing my passion and expertise.
