Anyone with any interest in wildlife photography or African animal sightings could not do any better than a trip with Ed. We have had four trips to Africa, three with him and all have been amazing. His expertise in finding the best spots for sightings/photography in various locations around Africa are second to none. Accommodation and staff at the camps was exceptional.

Edward Selfe is an excellent safari guide and photographer. He is dedicated to his craft and the country – indeed, he and his family live near the South Luangwa National Park. Edward has the skill to find the best photographic opportunities and coaches those who need assistance. The camps he chose for our trip were excellent and our animal sightings were wonderful, including elephants in one camp!

We had already for the third time a wunderfull and exited photosafari in Zambia with Ed. With his humor and experiences he takes, if you want, lots of time to help you out to make the right photos. Of course all based on your needs, equipment, position and situations.

I have been on safari several times in different African countries, but never on a bespoke photo safari, so after extensive research I decided to go on a photo safari in the South Luangwa National Park with Edward Selfe. Ed is both a great guide and photographer, with a wealth of knowledge and many years of experience. I was particularly impressed that he always knew how to provide us with special moments and photo opportunities and at the same time always made sure that nature and wildlife were respected and protected. We always had enough time to observe animals, take photos and wait and see how situations developed.

With a lot of patience and his skills as a guide, he tracked down leopards, for example, explored the birdlife of the Luangwa Valley with us and taught us new photographic techniques or the best camera setup. Even as an experienced (sports) photographer there was plenty to learn for me. I am very happy that I was able to go on this trip with Ed and will certainly go on safari with him again in the future.

In fact, the next trip is already being planned 🙂 I can’t wait to be back in Zambia and can’t recommend Ed highly enough as a photo safari guide. If you are planning a photo safari, then you should definitely consider doing it with Ed!

Edward Selfe is an amazing safari guide, photographer and host. He has an incredible understanding of the wildlife and their environment, then uses that knowledge to determine the best possible locations for both photography and game viewing. He assists with camera settings, composition and photographic techniques on sightings and then back at camp he makes himself available to review and critique photographs and provide tips on workflow and post processing.

Not only is Edward a pleasure to safari with, each safari is planned around his guests – the safari areas, the types of camps, comfort levels etc. He communicates with the camp operators to ensure we get the most out of our safari time, be it vehicles, early starts to make the best use of light and breaksfast in the bush.

I look forward to travelling on safari with Edward again in the future.
