An adventurer, traveler, photographer and conservationist, trying to develop a niche in an environment where there is so much talent. Taking on the photographic world is a challenge of the highest degree, but one that has taken me to all corners of the world, both above and below the waterline, overland and underwater.

I was first inspired to accept the challenge of taking photographs while I was studying. Conservation has always been in my blood and while studying birds down in the southern part of South Africa, I was lucky enough to be able to borrow a camera from the University and this was the start I needed. From there I went to work in the Lowveld near the Kruger national Park and, with my two first salaries, I bought myself a camera system. I was set! Until….one of the guests showed me his underwater images of his trip to the Red Sea. I knew from that day that I was to tackle the underwater realm, a medium far more challenging and exciting than terrestrial photography. The adventure began…..

After 7 years of working in the big 5 areas of South Africa, my wife and I decided that we needed to satisfy our travel bug and our passions, which included travel, photography and the ocean (in my case). We headed to the Caribbean where we unfortunately did not find what we were looking for, resulting in us heading back home, only to be offered an opportunity in the Cayman Islands. So off we headed back to the Caribbean, and 2 years later we returned to South Africa to take on the challenges, which the terrestrial and underwater worlds offer, and to hopefully share these through our photographs.

Enjoy the world through our eyes!
