Currently working as Information Security professional with decades of experience, My love for wildlife started from a young age, learning to respect and care for wildlife , Those early encounters with nature put into place the platform for my journey to become a wildlife photographer. My sheer passion for wildlife was born out of a love and fascination of the natural world from a young age upon receiving my first wildlife book called Animal World.

This skill is one of many I use within my own wildlife photography today derived from those early encounters with nature. This lose yourself to nature approach enables me to get close enough to capture the animal’s beauty and behaviour which both feature strongly in my perception of photography, showing a wild animal within their natural habitat being the foundation to my work today through the images I see then frame through my camera’s viewfinder.
