A visual legacy anchored by the story you choose to give it

Some of the most meaningful wildlife photographs aren't the ones you happen to stumble across in a gallery. Perhaps there's a specific emotion you want to curate in your space, or a landscape you've only been able to visualise - SHARE YOUR VISION. I'LL BRING IT TO LIFE

Tell me what you're looking for

Get in touch and describe the piece you'd love to have. It can be as specific as a particular species, interaction or landscape, or as open-ended as a feeling, composition or aesthetic you'd like to portray.

I'll go looking

Using my experience as a professional field guide and skilled photographer, I'll head out into the field and try bring your idea to life. Wildlife is unpredictable - I can't promise that I'll capture exactly what you've imagined - but I'll put in the time, utilise my knowledge of the bush and photography, and give myself the best chance of capturing the shot.

No upfront payment - you do not pay me to go looking

I'll first head out into the field and try to produce an image worthy of your request and emotional resonance. If I believe I've got the shot, I'll send it to you. There is no obligation to buy if what I've captured is not what you envisioned.

If however, you are satisfied with the shot, we can work together to curate the piece to fit the exact aesthetic you'd like in your space. Custom dimensions and various print sizes can also be agreed upon.

What Can you ask for?

Almost anything wildlife- and landscape-related:

  • A dramatic black-and-white image
  • Elephant herd interactions
  • Wild dogs on the hunt
  • A particular bird in flight
  • A predator with its prey
  • A particular landscape
  • A minimalist wildlife portrait
  • A striking silhouette

Your narrative, canvased

A fine-art print should be more than something that fills an empty space on a wall. It might be the animal you fell in love with on your first safari, a species you have always longed to see in the wild, or a landscape that anchors a cherished memory. What matters most is that it's your story.
