Singita Game Reserves, South Africa’s premier operator of luxury game lodges, has introduced Professional Photographic Safaris at their select Singita safari destinations in Southern and East Africa. Led by world-renowned wildlife photographer Adrian Steirn, the 4 and 6-day safaris will afford photography enthusiasts the opportunity to enhance and apply their craft in some of the world’s most awe-inspiring wildlife photography locales.
Featuring customized itineraries, the Singita photographic safaris will explore different eco-systems, comprising a range of wildlife and landscape choices, and an extraordinary variety of fauna and flora. Catering for small groups and all skill levels, from beginners to professionals, and with only three people per game viewing vehicle, an intimate, individualized and enriching experience is guaranteed. Itineraries include professional tuition during both shooting and editing. Between game drives, intense workshops on technique, style and post-production will be presented, during which participants will learn new techniques to improve their photography.
