Christine and Michel Denis-Huot are reknown wildlife photographers. Their work, published regularly, has earned them worldwide recognition. What sets them apart from other photographers is their intimate knowledge of animal behaviour. Before going into photography, Michel trained as a veterinarian. He’s as successful in getting accepted among a family of cheetahs as being at the right place and moment to witness the massive wildbeast migration at Masai Mara or photographing pink flamingos at Lake Bogoria.
Christine and Michel welcome us on board their customized Range Rover hunting for the perfect pictures through the National Parks of Kenya. We share their daily adventures learning the tricks of the trade of tracking and sighting wild animals such as lions, elephants, giraffes and tigers as well as their evenings at the campsite. We witness those rare, unreal and ever so fugitive moments captured in their still images where humans and wildlife come face to face.
