What are the most important things to focus on when you are planning a wildlife photography shoot?

Here are my suggestions:

Research - The better you know your subject, the better the chances that you can create stunning images that create a strong emotional connection with the viewer.

Local Guides and Safety - You want to have the best possible experience. Good local guides will know how to track the animals and help you to stay safe.

Know your equipment - Be very familiar with the gear that you take and be sure to know how to get the best from it in different environments.

Practice... a lot! - If you can't practice your photography (with the gear you will be taking) on the animals you will be photographing, photograph birds in flight.

Get inspiration from other photographers. These are the photographers I mentioned:

Underwater photography: Shane Gross and Laurent Ballesta (underwater), Frans Lanting (wildlife and landscapes), and Marina Cano (colour and black and white images).

You can also check out some of my earlier podcasts with Suyash Keshari and Karolina Noree.

And, if you’re looking for step-by-step instructions, take a look at my eBook.

I hope you enjoy it.
