THE KGALAGADI WILDLIFE PHOTOGRAPHY & FILM MASTERCLASS

THE KGALAGADI

WILDLIFE PHOTOGRAPHY & FILM MASTERCLASS

Never before shared secrets of photographing the Kalahari gemsbok park are of the Transfrontier park. 

The photograph begins long before the camera is packed.

Joe Lategan is an award-winning South African wildlife and landscape photographer, filmmaker, photographic guide and mentor with more than 30 years of experience in the Kgalagadi and the wider Kalahari region.

His relationship with the Kgalagadi goes far beyond taking photographs. Over three decades, Joe has studied its wildlife, animal behaviour, changing seasons, landscapes, routes, light and photographic conditions. This experience enables him to help photographers anticipate opportunities and position themselves correctly—often using the vehicle itself as a carefully planned photographic position.

Learn to plan your routes and identify priority species before you arrive, understand the weather impact, tourist impact and movements, read animal behaviour, anticipate the decisive moment and use your vehicle to create the photograph—the most important and underestimated skills in wildlife photography in the Kgalagadi.
