✨ Meet the Lilac-breasted Roller — Africa’s living rainbow! 🌈🇿🇦
Captured during one of our MaiaWildlife expeditions in South Africa, this stunning bird reminds us why the African wilderness is unlike anywhere else on Earth. From its turquoise wings to its lilac chest, every detail feels like a brushstroke from nature’s finest artist. 🎨🦜

Join us on our upcoming South Africa Expedition and witness scenes like this firsthand — from iconic Big Cats on the prowl 🦁, to elephants at sunset 🐘, and birds bursting with color and life.

🌍📸 A Life Chosen for the Wild 🐾

Choosing to dedicate my life to wildlife expeditions, conservation, and photography has been the most beautiful and the hardest decision I’ve ever made.

It meant walking away from stability, from financial security, from the comfort of knowing where tomorrow’s paycheck would come from. Instead, I chose the uncertainty of the wilderness — chasing light, waiting days for a single moment, investing everything I have into the dream of giving nature a voice.

The truth is, this profession is not easy. There are long nights of doubt, times when I wonder how to keep going, and sacrifices that few can see behind the images. But every time I lock eyes with a lion at dawn, hear the trumpeting of elephants in the distance, or capture the fragile beauty of a wild place, I know why I chose this path.

I chose it because the wild matters. Because these stories need to be told. Because even if the road is hard, my heart belongs here.

This is more than photography — it’s my life’s calling.

📸 Big News from the Bush! 🐾

After years of chasing light and wildlife through Africa’s most untamed corners, I’ve officially made the switch to Sony for my photography system — and I couldn’t be more excited for what this means for MaiaWildlife Expeditions.

Thanks to the support from Sony, we’re now equipped with:
🔹 Sony Alpha 7R V – for ultra high-resolution wildlife portraits
🔹 Sony Alpha 7 IV – our new workhorse for every expedition
🔹 20-70mm f/2.8 G – perfect for landscapes and storytelling moments
🔹 70-200mm f/2.8 GM – the fast telephoto for action-packed scenes
🔹 200-600mm f/5.6-6.3 G – our window into the wildest encounters

This system is a game changer — bringing unmatched speed, sharpness, and dynamic range to our storytelling. Whether it’s a lioness in golden light or a secretive bird in motion, the Sony mirrorless ecosystem is helping us see and share the wilderness like never before.

Here’s to sharper images, faster focus, and more unforgettable moments in the wild.
Stay tuned — we’re just getting started. 🌍📷
