Had the absolute pleasure of photographing a fantastic family at the in Matopos, and honestly, this spot is an absolute gem. You’re surrounded by kopjes in every direction, those iconic balancing granite boulders, and, oh yeah, a casual giraffe or zebra wandering past to keep things interesting.

Looking to do a family shoot in Bulawayo? This place gets a solid 10/10 from me. And weddings? Mate, it’s a big yes. Imagine saying ‘I do’ with a backdrop that’s straight out of a National Geographic special. Just don’t invite the warthogs—they have zero table manners.

Here are a few more shots from my recent UK trip—this time featuring the iconic Brighton Palace Pier. Brighton really is the loveable eccentric of British seaside towns, isn’t it? It’s a mix of candy floss, seagulls with zero boundaries, and memories of endless arcade games and fairground rides.

The pier itself is an absolute classic. Whether you’re there for the nostalgia, the vibrant energy, or just a good excuse to eat half a dozen freshly made Churro’s caked in cinnamon sugar, it doesn’t disappoint. Brighton’s unapologetic quirkiness made it a joy to photograph—let me know what you think of these snaps!

Well, that’s a wrap on 2024’s Christmas horse show! The horses did their thing, the humans did their thing, and I mostly stayed out of the way with a camera. It’s been a cracking year, but 2025 is right around the corner, and I’m ready to take on more of these shows, more horses, bring it on! 𐂃

Spent the day exploring the rugged beauty of Lizard Point, the southernmost tip of mainland Britain. It’s hard not to get lost in the charm of this place – from the old fishery clinging to the bottom of the cliff, a nod to Cornwall’s seafaring past, to the iconic Lizard Lighthouse, which has been guiding ships since the 18th century.

And the cows? Just casually grazing with the Atlantic Ocean as their backdrop, as if they’re the most majestic thing in the world. Everything about this place is just stunningly picturesque. I’m convinced there’s nowhere else quite like it.

Stepping out of my usual content to share bits of a truly special holiday. Cornwall’s landscapes, that ocean breeze, and those dramatic cliffs feel like a whole other world – especially for someone from Zimbabwe 🇿🇼 . This trip has been about family, laughter, and reconnecting with old friends. I’ve been savoring every bit of it, camera in hand, and trying my best to capture the beauty not just in photos but in video too. Here’s a glimpse into a trip I won’t be forgetting anytime soon.

There’s plenty more to come from this trip – little snapshots that’ll serve as reminders, for me, of these memories for years to come. This experience has also stretched my photography skills, teaching me a lot about capturing a moment in a fresh way. I’m looking forward to bringing this new perspective back home and applying it to future events and projects that I have lined up and I can’t wait to see how it shapes my work going forward.
