What is a photographic safari?

Photo safaris differ from traditional safaris in that their focus is capturing wildlife and nature through photography; whereas traditional safaris are simply about wildlife viewing.

So to put it simply a photographic safari is a guided wildlife photography expedition to capture shots of animals in their natural habitat.

Why the Masai Mara?

The Masai Mara, is widely regarded to be Africa's Greatest Wildlife Reserve and was voted as the eighth Wonder of the World in 2007. It is home to Africa's famous big five species (lion, leopard, elephant, rhino and buffalo) as well as an abundance of other wildlife, including chetah, wildebeest, zebra, gazelle, antelope, ostrich, giraffe, hyena and many more. Apart from its abundance of wildlife there is a huge variety of birdlife. It's estimated there are over 570 recorded species of birds in the Mara, which includes species such as eagles, secretary birds, grey crowned cranes and many more.

The Masai Mara is truly a paradise for wildlife photographers.

Where will we be staying?

Location matters, and it doesn't get better than Governors' Camp which is located in the Masai Mara National Reserve on the banks of the Mara River.

Governors' Camp is a luxury, all inclusive tented, unfenced camp in the heart of the Reserve. The camp provides an authentic, truly immersive safari experience, sleeping under canvas, surrounded by nature with all the comforts you need. We will have early access to the reserve, being the first out on game drives while the light is soft and the animals are active.

Ann Aveyard will be your host and photographic guide throughout the trip, providing advice and assistance on creating images.

Our driver / guide is qualified, experienced and knowledgeable and will find us some great wildlife sightings.

Complete beginners to more experienced photographers are welcome, the aim of the trip is always to have

a wonderful experience with like minded people who have a love of wildlife.

These photographic safaris are for anyone who loves nature, enjoys taking photographs and has the patience

to quietly observe and wait for that one great moment.

Ann looks forward to sharing her love of Africa and wildlife with you.
