Through My Lens

"To see the wild is to listen to its heartbeat."

I’m Tania Cholwich, a wildlife photographer, storyteller, and lifelong lover of the wild.

For me, photography is far more than taking a picture.

It is about connection – the moment an elephant looks into your eyes, the silence before a lion moves, the golden light falling across the plains, or the quiet encounter with a person whose story stays with you long after you have left.

My love for animals and photography has taken me on extraordinary journeys across Africa – from the vast plains of the Maasai Mara and the giants of Amboseli, to the landscapes, wildlife and communities that make this continent so incredibly beautiful.

Through My Lens is my way of sharing those journeys with you.

Every photograph holds a moment, a feeling and a story.

Some speak of wild beauty and freedom. Others speak of strength, gentleness, connection and the incredible people I have been privileged to meet along the way.

Africa has given me far more than photographs.

It has given me memories, friendships, lessons, laughter, tears and a deeper understanding of what it means to truly stop, look and feel.

I invite you to step Through My Lens and experience a little of the Africa I love – its wildlife, its landscapes, its people and the unforgettable moments that have captured my heart.

Come wander Africa with me.
