…Drew is great at anticipating animal behaviors. Not only are you learning how to shoot on safari but learning how to make the next shot even better. … In our two locations we had lovely accommodations with more luxury than imagined … The food - I can't even begin with the food! Incredible … We are already planning another adventure with Drew. He's a well-organized "detail machine,” engaging and his people skills get things done. Take this trip!

This is the absolute best way to view and photograph Yellowstone in the Winter. Limited group size, access to the interior of the Park and Great Accommodations!

This was our second trip to Africa and it exceeded our expectations. The quality of the sightings and the photographic opportunities provided was superb. Drew was the perfect guide, host, and tutor, and he had time for everyone of his guests. In particular, his special use of backlit sunset scenes was inspiring to me. Drew’s knowledge and experience in Africa made us feel secure and at ease. All in all a fantastic experience, and for wildlife photographers a must-do safari. We can't wait to go back.

An amazing trip photographing in Yellowstone with Drew. “You definitely know where the bears can be found and I learned those shooting techniques from you too! I walked away with images I was just hoping to get of bears and wolves and bison. LOVED the lodging and meals. Thank you for Everything”

I searched for quite some time for a good safari option. It’s always hard to find a solid knowledgeable guide for a reasonable price. Drew exceeded my expectations across the board, from the coordination of the airport transfers, through the camp selections, accommodations, meals and service. I love that we didn’t spend all of our time in one concession, which expanded our unique opportunities. I think you’d be hard pressed to find a better overall trip and the wildlife experience was top notch! I’ll be booking again!

Bob and I want to express our gratitude for a wonderful Yellowstone experience. I truly appreciate your extra effort to complete my “ short list” … Also a special thanks to you and Anna for accommodating my gluten sensitivity. You went above and beyond to keep me well fed and nourished. Thank you for everything we enjoyed out visit. Hope to see you in Africa in 2024.

If you’re looking to visit Yellowstone, there’s no shortage of guides in the area, but no one does it like Drew does. Great lodging and food, nothing better than having a private vehicle to take you in and out of the park, and most of all, great camaraderie. Drew was personable, knowledgeable and fun to shoot with. Save me a seat, I’ll be back for years to come!
Testimonial from the Doc … Africa 2023
Our experience with Drew visiting South Africa for a photo safari was amazing!
Preparation - Drew made himself available for phone calls to get us situated logistically and to answer questions about gear and clothing, etc. It was our first time visiting Africa and we needed some handholding!
Logistics - easy! We were picked up at the airport, delivered to a driver, and taken to a location in Johannesburg to wait for our flight into Hoedspruit. All of our internal domestic flights were taken care of as well as all ground transfers- we were just told what time to be ready!
The Safari - Of course this was the main part. Drew managed all of the communications with our drivers, making sure that we got the most out of every drive. We always waited for opportunities for the best shots, whether it was the action of a hunt or the perfect light on a grazing group of elephants. Drew is great at anticipating animal behaviors. Not only are you learning how to shoot on safari but learning how to make the next shot even better. Technical tidbits, composition recommendation and light management all in the moment. The drivers were so accommodating and told fantastic stories, keeping us entertained the whole time. We were always comfortable in the cool mornings and evenings with cold weather accoutrements and plenty of hot coffee and snacks. Not to mention the amazing sunsets that were of course enhanced with sundowner breaks.
The sleeping arrangements - awesome! In our two locations we had lovely accommodations with more luxury than imagined. Comfy beds, turndown service, and the soothing sounds of hyenas and lions to lull us to sleep at night :)
The food - I can't even begin with the food! Incredible. And SO much of it. Giant breakfasts and snacks and lunch and afternoon tea...and the most incredible game meat like ostrich and springbok.
What’s next? So what else is there to say? We are already planning another adventure with Drew. He's a well-organized "detail machine", engaging and his people skills get things done. Take this trip! - Dr. Pierre B.
