PHOTOGRAPHIC WORKSHOPS
Our photographic workshops are privately guided by award-winning photographer, Lance, in some of the world’s most illustrious wildlife destinations. These set-departure, small group safaris are designed to take advantage of the best seasons for photography in the best areas for certain wildlife species.
WHY BOOK A WORKSHOP?
Specially designed for keen wildlife photographers who want professional guidance in the field, our workshops are opportunities for like-minded people to get focussed attention and hone their photography skills.
Workshops are conducted at a handful of excellent locations that cater to the needs of our photography guests, putting their needs first, and enhancing the experience tenfold.
- Each open safari vehicle will only seat a maximum of six guests, so that every person has a clear view and enough space for their gear and equipment.
- Workshops are privately guided by Lance who will provide tuition, tips, and advice to each guest in the field.
- These trips are planned in advance with set departure dates and at set locations, so all you need to do is find the one that suits you best and the rest is taken care of.
- In the company of like-minded people, everyone’s goals are the same and there will be ample time and opportunity to focus on photography.
- Workshops are lower priced than custom safaris, so participating in a workshop gives you access to pristine, sought-after parks and reserves for less.
