FOUR SEASONS SERENGETI

FOUR SEASONS SERENGETI

In September 2017 I traveled to Tanzania with Matador Network to shoot stills and video for the Four Seasons Safari Lodge in Serengeti National Park. From bush walks with the Masai to a sunrise hot air balloon ride, our itinerary offered experiences that were educational, immersive and truly one of a kind.

 

Our team also attended a presentation about the Frankfurt Zoological Society's Serengeti De-Snaring Program, of which Four Seasons Serengeti is a founding member. Poaching snares are set up to catch game that can be harvested as meat, but the wires also harm animals like lions and elephants. Since launch of the Serengeti De-Snaring Program in 2017, tens of thousands of snare traps have been removed, and with the continued support of park concessionaires, this initiative will ensure that these amazing animals are protected in the years to come.

    THIS LAND IS YOUR LAND, THIS LAND IS MY LAND

    THIS LAND IS YOUR LAND, THIS LAND IS MY LAND

    My experience this morning truly represented the most extreme ends of the modern nature/travel photography spectrum. I hope sharing this story will remind others that a little bit of respect and humility go a long way, no matter who you are or what you do with your personal or professional life. I arrived at the Lake Wanaka parking lot just before 5:30am today, which was around the same time a small tour van filled with photographers pulled up. We all made our way to the shor
