Twyla Jones
Independant
I've got a head full of dreams and a heart for helping struggling artists connect with the tools they need to find success. I love nothing more than a long conversation brainstorming new marketing ideas or how to get super creative and raw for an upcoming photoshoot. I'm one of those photographers that has forgotten how to have a conversation about anything else, and I'm okay with it.

Villiers Steyn
Independant
I've been taking pictures since I can remember. I was our high school photographer growing up in Pretoria, photographing everything from sporting and social events to stage shows and class photos. My camera never left my side in the seven years after school when I completed my Masters in Nature Conservation, focusing on the movement patterns and densities of leopards in the majestic Tuli North Game Reserve in Botswana After graduating in 2008, I launched my own photography business, Vision Photography , and embarked on another exciting seven-year journey, this time as a freelance travel writer My love for people and teaching made adding a photographic safari guide to my repertoire in 2010 a natural evolution for me as a photographer. There are few things as rewarding as sharing a beautiful sighting with my guests, and even more so when I am able to help them capture those memories through the lens of a camera.

Xavier Navarro
Independant
Ma philosophie : transformer les cellules photosensibles de mon appareil en émotion, mais ce n’est pas de la magie, juste de la photographie. Ma voie : être créatif, original, décalé plutôt que de me contenter d’images banales, bateaux, fades. Je veux susciter l’enthousiasme, à travers des clichés aussi uniques que les personnes photographiées.
