Talks & Presentations

-1.jpg

I give talks and presentations based on my years living and working in Africa,

as well as my travels through India and beyond.

​

I share real stories from the field. The wildlife, the people, the challenges, and the unforgettable moments through my photography and personal experiences.

​

My talks can be delivered in person or online, and each one can be adapted for photography clubs or general audiences, depending on what you are looking for.

Living the African Dream

Stories from 16 years living and working in Africa, supporting communities and wildlife

I will transport you to Africa as I share my journey through the bush with my photographs and stories from the field.

​

I spent 16 years living and working in the African safari industry, supporting community projects and working with researchers on cheetah observations.

​

During this time, I followed a cheetah family from just four weeks old until they became fully independent.
An experience that shaped much of my connection to wildlife and conservation.

​

For photographic clubs, I adapt this talk to include the equipment I use, camera settings, and positioning techniques.


For non-photographic groups, I focus on the wildlife, daily life in the bush, and the experiences I had while living and working so closely with nature.

A Journey in India

Stories from my travels through India’s wildlife, culture, and cities

Travelling through India gave me a wonderful insight into daily life in Delhi, the history and beauty of Agra and the Taj Mahal, the colours of Jaipur, and the incredible wildlife found in Ranthambore, Kanha, and Bandhavgarh.

​

In this talk, I share my experiences photographing tigers, spending time in India’s national parks, and exploring some of the country’s most iconic cities and cultural sites.

 

The contrasts are remarkable. From the quiet moments in the forests waiting for a tiger to appear, to the vibrant streets, markets, and historic monuments that make India so unique.

​

I also talk about the people I met along the way, the atmosphere of the parks, and the moments that made each journey unforgettable.

 

The presentation can be adapted for photography clubs or general audiences, depending on what you are looking for
