Award-winning Wildlife Photographer

Bret is a multi-award-winning wildlife photographer who has photographed in some of the world’s most remarkable wilderness regions and seen some of the planet’s finest species. In 2017 he won the ‘Birds in Flight’ category in ‘Bird Photographer of the Year’ with an exquisite image of a pelican landing on water. He also recently won the ‘Birds’ category in the prestigious ‘Montphoto’ competition. Bret is also a busy photographic tour leader for ‘Wildlife Worldwide’ and has given inspiring talks at the RGS about his career in wildlife photography. His work is full of vibrant colour and detail, and his close-up photo of a baby gorilla is simply mesmerising.
