Photographer & Private Guide

Andrew Aveley
My name is Andrew Aveley, Photographer and Private Guide.

I am Professional Photographer, Private Nature & Culture Guide registered with the South African Department of Tourism. Along with this I may also work in Kruger National Park, with Photography being my specialty.

I have a passion for sharing or teaching Wildlife, Bird, Landscape and Wilderness photography to a wide variety of destinations in Southern Africa. My tours and safaris are created according to your needs and locations you want to visit.

My 22 years experience and unique skill set will ensure you see the destination in a fresh and unique way. Let me be your guide to “connecting with nature and light”.

Welcome to my Achievements Page

I am deeply grateful for the recognition and accolades my work has received, but I want to share that winning awards or chasing accolades has never been the heart of my photography. These honors are simply part of the business of being a professional photographer.

My true ambition lies in sharing my passion and knowledge of Africa’s incredible wildlife and natural beauty. I am dedicated to inspiring others to appreciate and conserve our precious environment.

My greatest reward is seeing the joy and wonder in the eyes of those who join me on this journey, as together, we discover the magic of Africa’s wild places. Thank you for being part of this adventure.
