About Andy

 

I am an avid adventurer, conservationist, teacher, and outdoor photographer whose photography celebrates the African landscape and its rich wildlife, people, and culture. My photographic safaris allow my travelers to not only enhance their understanding of photography, lighting, and wildlife, but to develop a life-long admiration for Africa ‘s beauty and culture.

Banana Republic recently used my photographs as the cornerstone of their Urban Safari campaign, and my images were seen in all 750 stores around the globe, as well as in their billboards, catalogs and annual report. I was also the winner of the BBC Wildlife Photographer of the Year in the ‘Wild Places’ category in 2008 and a highly commended in the ‘Creative Visions of Nature’ category in 2007.

I launched Gura Gear in 2008, in an attempt to deliver lightweight camera bags to the market. I was looking for a lightweight camera bag to hold all of my photographic gear, and there was nothing desirable on the market that suited my needs. After spending 2 years with many prototypes, the Gura Gear Kiboko bag was born. More products are now available on the Gura Gear web site.

Gura Gear Kiboko bag video now posted

DateThursday, December 17, 2009 at 03:40PM

As you may know, I launched Gura Gear last year, and I finally have a video available for all to see what my first bag, the Kiboko camera bag, is all about. It has been a thrilling 13 months since we launched the company, and we are getting great feedback from customers about their own experiences with the Kiboko bag.

Please share the video with other photographer friends, on your blog, Twitter or wherever you have an audience.

Hi Andy,
Any chance Gura Gear will come out with a smaller bag, that fits 1-2 SLRs bodies and 2-4 lenses. If yes, I want one!

Merry Christmas!

Erick, we are working on them right now. It took a while, but we are on track. We have been inventory constrained, and we (until now) did not have enough inventory to support a dealer network.

why did you call it hippo if it's light =p

December 20, 2009 | Unregistered Commentersingh

We are calling it Kiboko because we like the name. :-o

I'm just a few days away from a trip to Kenya with my new Kiboko bag. I just love it and hope to check in again once I'm actually on my photo safari. Thanks Andy!
