I’m a landscape photographer based in sunny South Africa. I took a liking to photography in late school years and got more serious about it after a failed attempt at university. A culmination of persistence and good fortune helped me along the way and today I capture landscapes as a profession. My images have been published in a great variety of media, all across the globe. I guide photographic tours to many places, including Iceland and Patagonia, but Namibia is my true backyard. There’s something very special about the Namibian desert and I’m very fortunate to live within a day’s drive of it. If you ever want to visit the world’s most beautiful desert, have a look at the tours available on my website(link to www.capturearth.com) Knowing the place like your home country and speaking the language makes a big difference. Every day that I can make a living out of this is a day to be grateful for. If you ever have any questions, get in touch at info@hougaardmalan.com
