QUINN KLOPPERS
HIGH KEY WILDLIFE PRINTS
Quinn was born in Zimbabwe and is purely African, not just by birth but also in his attachment to the wild places that he grew up in. Being raised in one of Africa’s truly wild areas allowed him to create a relationship with the wild animals that can only be found in a few remaining places on the planet. In the year 2000 he became a licensed guide in Zimbabwe and spent his time immersing himself and his clients in wild areas both state and private. The progression to capturing his experiences on camera was a very natural progression, allowing him to share with others what he gets to experience on a daily basis. His knowledge of the technical side of photography and his understanding of the animals and environments that he works in have allowed him to capture some truly unique and breathtaking images. Not one to settle into the routine he is always trying to capture never been done shots and discover new techniques and technologies to help him improve his craft.
