The Baobab Story

In bushman mythology the baobab (pronounced bayohbab) is considered a magical tree. The baby baobab looks completely different to its adult and so the adult tree seems to appear all of a sudden out of nowhere... like magic!

There is no other tree that looks like a baobab - its spreading branches give the appearance of roots sticking up in the air as if it had been dropped upside down from the sky and the trunk size in older trees can grow to over 10 metres in diameter.

This uniqueness, as well as the sentimental reminder of my homeland, Zimbabwe, inspired me to label my services under the name Baobab Photography.

Ever on the quest to transform the ordinary into the extraordinary through my photographs, I hope to leave lasting impressions on the viewer and to create works of art that can be shared and enjoyed, enabling scenes and moments to be relived and preserved for future generations.
