Villiers Steyn's love for photography started when he was still a schoolboy and in 2008, after completing a Masters Degree in Nature Conservation, he stared his own photography business, Vision Photography.

Villiers has a passion for teaching, and since the launch of his career as professional photographer he has presented his Digital Photography Course for Beginners to thousands of aspiring photographers from all over the world, helping them to master their DSLR cameras and to capture priceless memories of their vacations, friends, families and everything else they enjoy and hold dear. This is what a few of Villiers's happy clients had to say about his beginners' photography course:

“Villiers is an outstanding instructor and his photography courses are perfectly structured. His expert knowledge of photography is invaluable."

Katharine Hill – South Africa

“Villiers is an excellent teacher with a great eye for composition. I can't recommend him enough!"

Martin Milton – United Kingdom

When Villiers is not teaching people how to use their cameras, he works as a professional wildlife photographer and photographic safari guide in South Africa.

“Together with his obvious photographic talent, Villiers' can-do attitude and professionalism made him an indispensable freelance photographer."

Emma Odendaal – former managing editor, Getaway Magazine

Villiers's experience as a travel photographer, wedding photographer, wildlife photographer and event photographer gives him an edge as an instructor, simply because he can, and will, teach you how to take excellent photos of anything and everything you wish to photograph.

He's no stranger to the other side of the lens either; Villiers is a presenter on Nat Geo Wild's Caught in the Act on which he comments as a wildlife expert on rare animal behaviour. He also has a YouTube Channel called The Safari Expert that contains loads of interesting and entertaining safari-related videos.
