“When words become unclear, I shall focus with photographs. When images become inadequate, I shall be content with silence.”
― Ansel Adams

My interest in photography started while I was a student; taking general news photos for the university newspaper. Every week you received a new assignment and had to make sure you delivered a good quality image in time for printing. During the film days you had to carefully plan each shot, and make sure your camera settings were correct. You also had to develop your own black and white film which made it a very fulfilling start-to-finish experience (with no one else to blame if you messed up).
As I have a full time career, photography unfortunately takes a back seat and is mostly my break away from corporate life. How better to achieve this than spending time outdoors and also where my passion for wildlife photography started.
I am based in the Cape Winelands, northeast of Cape Town - renowned for its scenic beauty and spectacular views of the Cape Fold mountains.
My goal is to capture those high impact moments, where hours of preparation and dedication comes together to forge a piece of history. This is the story that matters most: Real people, real action, real memories.
