WILDLIFE PHOTOGRAPHY TOURS
I run wildlife photography tours to several parts of our beautiful planet. Always restricting group size to between six and eight people to ensure a personal experience. I’m honoured that people want to travel with me and so grateful for the amount of friendships that have blossomed over the years. My ethos is that these quickly become like a group of friends sharing an amazing experience together. Many people who come on them for the first time comment that they thought I was going to be a very serious person. I hope the exact opposite is true. We’ll always have fun together and I believe that this ultimately leads to better photos as a spin off.
🦧 Photography and Travel with a Purpose – Supporting Conservation
“Ian is a great guide with vast amounts of wildlife and cultural knowledge. Moreover, his warmth and kindness meant that by the time we’d finished our Uganda holiday, our group had bonded so well that it felt like leaving old friends. Our mountain gorilla treks were mind-blowing and to top it off, Ian introduced me to Jane Goodall – possibly making this the best trip ever ! Thank you so much for an utterly awe-inspiring experience. I look forward to another adventure together in the near future.” Carolyn Thompson

I’m delighted to announce that I’ve won the Galapagos photography competition organised by the amazing Galapagos Conservation Trust. And as a Brucy bonus I received another four another awards in it. Best of all, I’m now linked up with the Galapagos Conservation Trust and I’ll be making donations to them from each of my Galapagos photography tours to support their wonderful projects.
“An Impressive shot perfectly composed and achieved. It perfectly conveys the close existing interaction between wildlife and coastal communities, showing how Galapagos is not only about the wildlife but also people interacting closely with it.”
