Welcome!

Luxury experience and lodge photographer creating media about thoughtfully designed spaces and remote wilderness locations in Africa and abroad.

I’m fascinated by the corners of our world where nature lives in abundance. Being outdoors has given me so much – primarily a sense of awe and gratitude – along with a few scars to complement! I believe that by immersing in nature in its purest form, we grasp the profound significance it holds in shaping the way we think and live, in conservation, and ultimately in the legacy we leave behind.

A short background

After completing a B.Com degree in Marketing and working as a commercial photographer in Durban, I took up the role of lead photojournalist for South Africa’s oldest travel magazine. This journey introduced me to an extraordinary editorial team that became good friends. Together, we tackled adventures as diverse as gorilla trekking in Rwanda, comparing Smørrebrød menus in Copenhagen, and tracing the footprints of pilgrims in KwaZulu-Natal.

A few years later, the freelance realm beckoned with opportunities to contribute to international publications, travel on multi-day horse adventures around the globe, and craft media for upscale design properties.

Today, my work spans fulfilling collaborations with lodges, NGOs, safari operators, boutique hotels, editorial publications, and the creative minds of interior designers and architects. My strong connection with my home continent, Africa, sees me working predominantly on (magnificent) home soil, although I am available for commissions worldwide.
