Excellent guide, knows the wildlife and locations very well
I have used James a couple of times on safari now, Ol Pajeta and Amboseli. he is a first class safari guide and an exceptional photographer. These two commodities make for great game viewing and excellent photography opportunities. His knowledge is excellent for both the wildlife and finding the best locations, I can only give him the highest of praises. He makes sure you get the shots and you come away with some incredible memories after a fabulous safari.

Amazing experience!
We spent 3 days in Maasai Mara National Park with James, and we had an incredible adventure. James is passionate and very knowledgeable; he always takes the time to explain and shares his knowledge about the wildlife. None of our questions were left without answers.
Patient, James also provided us advises and tips for the rest of our adventure in Kenya.
We highly recommend James and Wild Portrait Safaris!

An incredibly educational and memorable experience that exceeded all my expectations!
The two days my family spent with James, a friendly and highly knowledgeable guide, were nothing short of magical. He provided an experience that was beyond our expectations, and being our very first safari, we made memories in the Maasai Mara that we still talk about months later. He was highly knowledgeable with the expansive terrain and never missed an opportunity to guide us to see the rarest of the wild animals within a short period of time, providing the best viewing angle for us without distracting the animals.
Being an amateur photographer myself, James went out of his way and offered to let me use his professional lenses to capture some of the best photos that I could not have taken otherwise. His professionalism and extraordinary knowledge of the wild animals and the terrain made for an even more exciting safari and I must say that we left the trip more educated and with more appreciation for nature, especially for my 7 year old daughter.
I highly recommend James and Wild Portrait Safaris for families, photographers and anyone who wants more than just a safari. I can't wait to be back!

Everything you can ask for!
We met James during a Safari in Kenya in 2017. Even though we only had a few days together we were amazed by his professional guidance as well as his eye for scenery and his feeling for opportunies for great photography.
Therefore, when planning our honeymoon this year, Wild Portrait Safaris was the obvious choice.
Long story short... The trip did exceed our exspectations and we spent a wonderful time in Kenia.
We can absolutely recommend this company weather your a professional Photographer, Photo enthusiast of even if you just want to exsperience Kenias‘ wildlife first hand.
Beeing an exsperienced wildlife photographer himself, James really knows how to compose wildlife and landscape into amazing pictures as well as how to get the ‚one shot‘ standing out from the hundrets of pictures taken on a safari.

Astonishing, educational, entertaining and a truly magical experience!
This was my fourth and the absolute best safari I've been to. The way the guides work to give us every little magic glimpse of the savannah's heart, is something I cannot explain with words, you have to experience it to understand that their safari can make your dream come true! Incredibly talented guides, they know exactly what it takes to give you everything you want and a little more!

A safari that exceeded all, already high expectations, more than I could ever dream of.
Our 12 days safari became an extraordinary experience thanks to James and his colleagues Sammy and Gerard.
James is a fantastic guide who reads the group and goes that "extra mile" in order to fulfill the dreams and expectations in the group. He shares his knowledge in a way that makes you become one with Kenya and the wild life, you sense a feeling of belonging to the nature. It is his great experience and passion for what he does that makes it possible for all of us to see and feel so much of the wildlife and the magnificent nature.
James is also a fantastic photographer and he does his utmost to give you the possibility to get that perfect shot!
James, his colleagues and Wild Portrait safaris have my highest and warmest recommendations.
