Rachel Sinclair

Professional Wildlife Photographer

Hi, I’m Rachel your iPhotography Safari Course instructor! 

Since 2007 I have been photographing domestic and wild animals all over the world.

Having spent copious hours on Kenya’s savannahs capturing wildlife at its rawest, I’ve led photographic safaris in East Africa’s most magnificent wildlife hotspots.

I love to help amateur photographers create stunning images of wild animals that are worth sharing.

Through safari photography I feel we can make a real difference in conservation and inspire others to care more about our natural world.

I look forward to you joining me on this wild adventure!
