About Andy

 

I am an avid adventurer, conservationist, teacher, and outdoor photographer whose photography celebrates the African landscape and its rich wildlife, people, and culture. My photographic safaris allow my travelers to not only enhance their understanding of photography, lighting, and wildlife, but to develop a life-long admiration for Africa ‘s beauty and culture.

Banana Republic recently used my photographs as the cornerstone of their Urban Safari campaign, and my images were seen in all 750 stores around the globe, as well as in their billboards, catalogs and annual report. I was also the winner of the BBC Wildlife Photographer of the Year in the ‘Wild Places’ category in 2008 and a highly commended in the ‘Creative Visions of Nature’ category in 2007.

I launched Gura Gear in 2008, in an attempt to deliver lightweight camera bags to the market. I was looking for a lightweight camera bag to hold all of my photographic gear, and there was nothing desirable on the market that suited my needs. After spending 2 years with many prototypes, the Gura Gear Kiboko bag was born. More products are now available on the Gura Gear web site.

My book recommendations for the holidays

DateThursday, December 10, 2009 at 09:46AM

I have been asked a few times in the past few days about my favorite as well as recommended books. I quickly created an Amazon wish list with some books to help out those that are shopping for a loved one for the holidays. A few are Africa specific, and the rest are photography books. The books below are either educational or inspirational, and I refer back to these books often. If I could own only one photo book on my shelf, I would go for Galen Rowell's Inner Game of Outdoor Photography, hands down. He was an amazing man, educator, mountain climber, conservationist and photographer.
