Keepers were surprised to go into work on October 15th to find not one but two Gelada babies have been born to separate mothers. It was knowledge that females Tana and Addis were both pregnant but the odds of them giving birth on the same night were very slim. It also opened a possibility that […]
On Saturday 9th October, I was lucky enough to photograph some very special enrichment in the Tiger paddock at Dudley Zoo. Senior Keeper Josh had filled the Tiger pool along with some child friendly bubble bath as to not irritate their skin. The weather wasn’t very warm however this didn’t stop male Sumatran Tiger Joao […]
Recently I was lucky enough to interview one of the Senior Carnivore Keepers at Dudley Zoo, Josh Luxton. We’re lucky at the zoo to have such an amazing group of Zookeepers who are so down to earth and happy to help. So whether you’re just curious to know about the life of a Zookeeper or […]
I hadn’t heard of Saal Digital or their printing services before and only came across them by chance when scrolling through Instagram and seeing other photographers mentioning them.I looked into their services and noticed their high-end photo book, which I thought would be great to use as a physical, professional portfolio to show off some […]

Over the past 2 weeks I’ve visited Chester Zoo twice which is what I love to do every year. It is simply too big to cover in one day and more animals keep arriving! After the sad death of Nandita & Aayu last year from EEHV it was really lovely to see Indali & Anjan […]
