Andrew Beck

Very few people can tell you what their passion in life is. Even fewer will be able to tell you that what they do for a living is in fact their passion.

I was very fortunate that my love for the bush and conservation took me on journey which would not only allow me to explore the continent which fascinates me so much, but to share my passion for photography and conservation with others.

Memorable encounter

There have been so many over the years but I guess being seated on the dry lake bed of Lake Amboseli and having a herd of 20+ elephant pass by just meters away in absolute silence would have to rank right up there with the best of them.

An interesting fact about me

I spent 9 years studying Environment, Ecology and Conservation (MSc) before making the switch to full time guiding and running tours.

Go to music choice

A little bit of everything but I’m enjoying the energy of some of the less commercial drum & Bass at the moment!
