James was more than a guide, he was like a travel companion and I enjoyed every minute with him.
I spent five days photographing in Amboseli NP and five days in the Masai Mara NR with James and Wild Portraits Safaris in January 2025. He also coordinated and organized a four day gorilla trekking adventure in Rwanda for me. I started planning this trip about six months in advance and was so impressed with his prompt replies to my many questions and clear communication.
Once I arrived it quickly became obvious that James is very experienced, prepared, thoughtful, energetic, enthusiastic and always on time (early actually). He has outstanding knowledge and years of experience with wildlife behaviour, ecology and conservation biology and I enjoyed our regular conversations about these topics.
He has an outstanding ability to read animal behaviour, know what they will do next, and position you to photographically make the most of the available light, the subject, the landscape and composition. He’s always watching these variables and repositioning when necessary to keep you in the best possible position.
James and Wild Portraits Safaris organized the perfect trip for me and I always felt safe and comfortable. He is such a nice, professional, thoughtful person that he quickly became more of a friend than a guide. I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend his services and I can’t imagine travelling his part of the world with anyone else.

Humble, knowledgeable, friendly and flexible for sure!
A trip of a lifetime! We visited 5 different parks and had the best experience with James. He’s so knowledgeable, down to earth and has great intuition. 10/10 recommend. I can’t wait to go back!

Professional, experienced,sympathetic and responsive.
My son and I have experienced an absolutely fantastic and unforgettable safari trip thanks to James and Wild Portrait Safaris. Thanks to his experience and deep understanding and respect for wildlife and its surroundings, he gave us so much more than we could ever have dreamed of. Extremely sympathetic and responsive. We have felt so well taken care of and safe. A comprehensive concept that was very convenient where he booked everything and was by our side the whole time. We have not missed anything.

Will go again!
I have now been on two amazing safaris with James and his company.
I can hardly imagine doing it with anyone else – truly!
Beyond his vast knowledge of both wildlife and nature, as well as his deep respect and care for all living things, you find yourself wrapped in a bubble of incredible experiences that touch you on a profound level – a bubble you never want to leave.
James makes you feel relaxed and comfortable. Serious moments are mixed with humor and warmth, creating an atmosphere where you can truly enjoy yourself.
One important thing to remember in nature is that you can never be guaranteed to see one thing or another – nature is what it is. But with James’ experience and expertise, you have the chance to see so much, even the most unexpected.
Would I recommend Wild Portraits Safaris? A thousand times over!

Amazing Sarafi Experience - Beyond my wildest dreams
Our safari experience October 2024 was amazing. The time w/ James was beyond all my expectations. He is so knowledgeable about the animals and I learned so much. It was way beyond just viewing - but 100% educational. About how the animals interact, care for each other, mate, stay in families or not etc. James has so much soul and is so passionate about his work and sharing his knowledge with those in his jeep. I can’t recommend James enough - I feel so lucky that we landed with him as our safari guide! You will be so happy if you book your Safari with James at Wild Portrait Safaris!
