Africa Wildlife Photographic Safaris or Photography is a fairly individual pursuit. It demands time and patience as well as an in depth knowledge of local conditions and the subject, especially when your lens is trained on a wild creature. Keen photographers are often restrained on a general safari – they lack the freedom to stake out a waterhole for hours or wait patiently for a lion pride to catch up with a herd of buffalo. They often need a particularly experienced guide to keep them informed of the likely movement and behavior of the wildlife they are observing. The perfect Africa Wildlife Photographic Safari, from a photographer’s point of view, is one that balances patient observation of the details with a sharp eye for dramatic opportunities.

Early adventurers painted what they saw; modern visitors capture the moment through the lens of a camera, often with passion and expertise to rival a professional photographer.
It’s important that your guide is dedicated to photography and understands the technical aspects of taking a good wildlife photo. Vehicle positioning, for instance, is essential as it ensures the best angle for you and your camera in any given situation. The guide also needs to be committed to waking up early and staying out late in order to maximize times for great light and movement of wildlife. It’s also essential that the safari vehicle has sufficient space, as operating bulky equipment in a car full of other guests can get awkward.

Location Location: The next important step in Africa photographic travel is choosing the right camps or lodges, that will allow you as a wildlife photographer to access the best areas and at the right time of day, to make use of the golden light. For example, the Masai Mara has many camps but there are only a few that allow quick access to the various wildebeest crossing points or that allow one to get away from other vehicle traffic. Using the correct safari camp or lodge is a key component of an African photography safari! Exclusive use of a vehicle with freedom and flexibility is also essential to allow a nature photographer the time and freedom to work a particular subject or area. Does the safari camp have sufficient power for the running of laptops and charging of batteries? How far is the safari camp from the best game viewing areas? Can we alight from the vehicle or drive off-road? The answer to these simple questions can mean the difference between a successful African safari photography tour or not. As an African safari specialist, I am able to select the best properties for your African safari travel.
Best African Countries to do your Photographic safari
Botswana is an outstanding country for wildlife photography, with the Okavango Delta, the Savuti Channel and Chobe National Parks being among the greatest place on the African continent for getting great images that you will treasure forever.
Ethiopia is a wonderful place for photography tours having unique wildlife, awe-inspiring landscapes, fascinating peoples and a richer cultural history than anywhere else in Africa.
Kenya’s Masai Mara is famous for its spectacular migration of wildebeest and zebras, with Nile Crocodiles, Lions and other big cats lying in wait at the Mara River crossings, making for awesome wildlife photography! Our Kenya photography tours are based on a private concession where we share the experience with just a few other people.
Namibia photography tours are a wonderful mix of landscapes, wildlife (sometimes with an ‘with a difference’ approach focusing on small critters) and tribal people in this most scenic of African countries. You can even try your hand at night photography under the clear Namibian desert skies.
Tanzania photography tours focus on the wildlife spectacle of the world-famous Serengeti National Park and the Ngorongoro Crater, arguably the best place for wildlife photography in the whole of Africa. More than a million wildebeest and zebras flood into Tanzania’s southeastern Serengeti between February-April and the predators, Lions, Cheetahs, Leopards and hyenas, take full advantage.
