Photographer of the Year.
About Darren: "Having been inspired to explore a career in nature photography by my father's travels in Antarctica, Darren now pursues a passion for capturing and sharing the wonder of the natural world.
After graduating from the Queensland College of Art, he first worked in commercial photography, before taking up a position as photographer with the Queensland National Parks and Wildlife Service, where he worked for 8 years.
He moved on from that part of his career in 1994 and his work is now published widely in books, magazines and paper products. He has had the opportunity to photograph extensively across Australia and in Africa, Alaska, Patagonia, Tonga and Antarctica and have introduced many people to the world's great wildlife and landscape destinations first hand, through small group photography tours, predominantly to Africa and Antarctica."

Darren guided our photography groups in Tonga during 2001 and 2002 seasons. We are very happy to have him join our Whaleswim Team again to guide our photography tours in Tonga 2008.
Over the past 9 season we have had many wildlife photography enthusiasts as well as professional wildlfe photographers join thses special tours. Professional photographers such as Francois Gohier (joined us for 2 seasons), Scott Portelli, Mike Hill, Kelvin Aitken have joined us over the past 9 years.
With just a small group of 5 guests - the opporunity to be in the water with the whales is greater than the other tours we offer. This is very important for photography enthusiasts.
