A selection of shots taken at the production of West Side Story by Lincoln Minster School.

I have just had the perfect photography commission! Three weeks in Richard Branson’s private Game Reserve in South Africa, taking photos of wildlife and guests enjoying the game viewing and everything else the lodge had to offer.

The reserve is called Ulusaba and the website is www.ulusaba.com - everything about the place is fantastic: the staff, the setting, the food, the decor, the service, and of course, the wildlife - a photographer’s dream! Ulusaba also do some great work with the local communities, and most of the staff working there are from one of the nearby villages.

I would highly recommend this place to anyone wanting to experience the best that Southern Africa has to offer - what an amazing place for a honeymoon!

Ulusaba also offer a complete wedding package, so you could get married in the Africa bush - don’t forget that you’ll also need a photographer, preferably someone who has been there before!

Here’s a selection (quite a lot!) of some of the many photos that I took during my stay…

I’m just too excited! I’m off to South Africa on Friday as part of a 3 week commission to shoot people and wildlife in a private Game Reserve.

Hopefully I’ll be able to get some great shots, and I’ll post a few on my return. 

Please note that there may be some delay in responding to emails, so please bear with me - I return on the 21st May.
