WHY LISTEN TO US
We are Namibia nature photographers, ecologists and wildlife enthusiasts. We've lived, traveled and photographed in Namibia for more than 24 years and undertook hundreds of photo trips to (almost) every corner of the country. As ecologists we spent 13 years in the Etosha National Park, studying the Park's ecology including wildlife behavior and lion population dynamics. Every free minute we spent out in the wild, on a quest to experience unique wildlife behavior and capture it in beautiful photographs. This mission has led to more than 100 000 images, of which we've published our best on postcards, calendars, an Etosha book and a series of Namibia travel guides.
