EXPLORE MARK FERNLEY'S PORTFOLIOS
DIVE INTO THE WORLD OF MARK'S WILDLIFE PHOTOGRAPHY
Please feel free to explore the wildlife photography of Mark A Fernley as he ventures form country to country on this vast continent here in Africa. As he explores and photographically documents the natural world in Africa, you will be overwhelmed with his inspirational artistic capabilities and diverse creativity.
Africa is a place that reshapes how you see the natural world. It is vast, raw, unpredictable, and deeply moving. For me, wildlife photography is not just about documenting animals, but about capturing fleeting moments that reveal character, tension, beauty, and vulnerability. Every image in these galleries represents time spent observing, waiting, and learning from the wild spaces of Africa.
From the dust-filled plains of Kenya and Tanzania to remote conservancies and hidden waterholes, my work focuses on authentic encounters with wildlife in their natural environment. These are not rushed moments or staged scenes. They are the result of patience, respect, and an understanding of animal behaviour built over years spent guiding and photographing across East Africa.
Within these galleries you will find intimate portraits, dramatic low-angle perspectives, quiet moments of connection, and powerful displays of survival. Light, atmosphere, and composition play a central role in my storytelling, whether photographing a lone elephant at dusk, predators on the move, or wildlife emerging from the shadows at night.
Each collection offers a different window into Africa’s wild places. Some images reflect raw power and scale, others stillness and reflection. Together, they form a visual narrative of a continent that continues to inspire and challenge me as a photographer.
I invite you to explore the galleries, take your time, and immerse yourself in these moments from the field. Whether you are drawn to the artistry, the emotion, or the stories behind each photograph, I hope these images offer a sense of connection to Africa’s wildlife and the landscapes they call home.
