Author Biographies
Husband and wife award-winning photographersPhilip and Ingrid van den Bergshare a love of Africa and all its facets. It is their passion to capture unique moments in nature and share these with readers, through the pages of their wildlife books. Now retired from careers in environmental education and biological sciences, Philip and Ingrid have transformed a love of photography into a full-time "hobby", with several acclaimed wildlife books to their credit. With their extensive knowledge of the natural world coupled with their scientific backgrounds, they are an integral part of the HPH team of photographers and writers.
Heinrich van den Bergis an international award-winning wildlife photographer, and is also an accomplished writer and publisher. Based in Johannesburg, South Africa, Van den Berg is well known for pushing the boundaries of photography to create explosive images that are as beautiful as they are emotive.
Van den Berg heads his own publishing company,HPH Publishing, and has successfully published over 40 full-colour wildlife titles since 2001. His books are highly acclaimed for both their quality and content.
Heinrich and his wife Dana travel extensively in search of unique images, always with an eye for the unusual and a new perspective on the known world. Although Dana is a new addition to the team, she has already contributed substantially to the pool of photographs in the HPH Image Library.
Along with other photographs from the HPH fold, Heinrich has featured prominently in numerous coffee-table books, calendars, magazine portfolios and other photographic publications worldwide. Both national and international magazines such asNational Geographic, GEO, TERRA, Terra Sauvage, the New York Times, the Times of London, Getaway, Africa Geographic, Go!and numerous others have published HPH work.
Van den Berg also shares his photography knowledge through exclusive workshops held across southern Africa.
A very well presented book on one of the most important yet often neglected aspects of WildLife photography. Suitable for all levels of photographic skills!

Knowledge is power
Love the book, really enjoyed the terminologies at the back to help me understand technical terms that I am not yet familiar with.
The explanations and photos really spiked my creativity and inspiration to go out and take photos!

Kruger Birds review.
The book is small and handy for travelling along the routes of the Kruger Park. It is quite easy to find the birds that you are looking for and they can be ticked off for future reference. As the book only consists of Kruger birds it is not necessary to page a larger thick book that contains all the birds in Southern Africa.
It is pricey, but I am happy with my purchase.

Saved my holiday!
Our first overlanding trip to Botswana is in September this year. I spent hours researching how to do this and structured our holiday according to what I had found in blogs etc. After reading this book, I have made some very important changes that could have really put a dampen on our holiday. I feel 100% prepared and my worries have melted away. I am so glad that I bought this book. Do yourself a favour!

Let Elephants Roam?
Beautiful book with vital information and inside into the future of wild African elephants hanging in the balance due to unpredictable weather patterns, an increasing human footprint, disconnected wild spaces, unknown ecological advantages, and human ignorance.

Birds of Kruger - Pocket edition
Service was great, very quick and parcel arrived. Just one little issue, this was a gift and the corners of the books were all bent from being loose in the box as it had no protection over the book . thank you
