Nyupur is a 98 year old woman from the Dayak Maanyan indigenous tribe who lives in a small village in Barito in central Borneo. She is a Sha woman, healer and spiritual leader with wisdom beyond her years . Truly a living legend I had the privilege to spend some time with hearing about her life and family history.

Our Story

My business is organising photographic tours, workshops and cultural tours in Bali and other parts of Indonesia with a particular emphasis on Kalimantan (Indonesian Borneo). I also run tours to India, including the tribal areas of Odisha and Nagaland, plus Myanmar, Vietnam, Japan, East Java and other remote parts of Indonesia. I combine and collaborate with experienced professional photographers in Indonesia, New Zealand and Australia, with the aim for participants to take better photos, explore the beauty and diversity of the places we visit, improve their photography skills and meet like minded people who share a passion for photography.

I also provide day tours in Bali. These run most days (Ubud based) and include private tours which can be tailored to the needs of the client to include culture, waterfalls, temples, traditional fishing villages and local markets. All the local communities we visit, we give back through a variety of education programmes, cultural dances programmes and eco-sustainable solutions.

One of the hallmarks of my photography tours is taking people into the real heart and soul of the place, away from tourists areas and connecting with the local people, particulaly indigenious communities and creating opportunities to capture very special, out of the ordinary photographs.
