Some of the best places aren’t signposted.

You just have to be willing to leave the main path to find them.

📍 Hidden Waterfall, South Wales

Blink and you’ll miss it! 🐾

A moment that will definitely stay with me. One quick glance through the trees, a brief moment of eye contact and then it disappeared back into the woodland. 🌿

This little mink ran straight past us and for a second, we had no idea what we’d just seen. We quietly tucked ourselves into the long grass and waited, hoping it might return.

To our amazement, it did.

It stood watching us for just a few seconds before melting back into the forest as if it had never been there!

What’s a rare wildlife encounter you’ve had? 🪶🐾

Green is the most underrated colour on this platform, let’s do it some justice 🍃

I put together these 6 frames because I wanted to capture how different lighting, scenes and subjects can completely change a mood. Every shade has its own calming effect and I just want more of it lately.

Which of the 6 frames is your favourite? Let me know below👇

Come and explore Northumberland in Jennifer Vaniston! 🚐

We had the privilege of taking this amazing van from on an epic trip up north 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿

Northumberland has been on our bucket list for a while, but because of the long drive, we kept putting it off. We finally bit the bullet and we are so glad we did!

It truly has everything a photographer could want: unique wildlife, stunning views, and incredible campsites 🐦🌲✨

Have you ever explored this part of the UK? 👇

Goslings having a nap at Bryn Bach Park 🐥🌸

There’s something about goslings in a field of daisies that just stops you in your tracks.

These little ones were only days old, still covered in that fluffy yellow down! Moments like this you just have to be patient, get low, and let it happen.

Wildlife doesn’t always mean exotic locations. Sometimes it’s a local park on a quiet evening walk.

What’s the best wildlife encounter you’ve had close to home? 👇

Cropping with a 61 megapixel camera 📸

One of the biggest advantages of shooting on the Sony A7RV is the resolution. When you’re photographing wildlife you can’t always get as close as you’d like, so having that extra detail to work with in post makes a real difference.

These gannet shots were taken at Bempton Cliffs. The original frames had more of the scene but a tight crop can help bring all that detail to life!

For wildlife I always try to nail the composition in camera first. But when the moment happens fast, knowing you’ve got 61 megapixels to fall back on takes the pressure off!

Do you crop heavily in post or try to get it right in camera? 👇

Pen y Fan. January. Cloud inversion. 🏔️

Set the alarm, drove in the dark, hiked up in the cold and this is what was waiting at the top.

Puffin season is back! 🙌🏼

Spent 3 days over on Skomer Island and managed to capture some of my favourite shots from my time there! Seeing so many amazing posts I decided to make my own with a twist… just some of my favourite in flight shots! 🔥

When they have sandeels in the beak it means they’re heading back to feed their chick, so every frame is a parent on a mission and if you know anything about Puffins they really are on a mission!

Most people don’t realise how fast they actually fly. Tiny wings, serious speed 💨

Swipe to the end to see my favourite one of the trip 😁

My camera roll from an afternoon chasing red squirrels in Scotland 🐿️

Some of these moments I waited for. Others just happened. That’s what I love about wildlife photography, you can plan everything and still be completely at the mercy of the animal.

Red squirrels are one of the UK’s most threatened native species. Seeing one in the wild still stops me in my tracks every single time!

Shot 1 is my favourite. The mossy log, the light through the canopy it just worked.

What’s your favourite? 👇
