My name is Meghan McCabe and I am a full time Photographer / Videographer based in Johannesburg, South Africa. I am proudly a brand ambassador for Thule – my camera and travel bags and OM System- my camera gear.
My photographic career started in 2012 and grew rapidly as my passion for capturing the action packed world of motorsport took over. I won Motorsport South Africa Photographer of the Year in 2013 which launched my then hobby into a full time career shooting all forms of racing around the country.
It was all about the adrenaline and adventure.
As my career grew my passion changed, it became more about tranquil sunsets in the African bush than screeching tyres, So I began to explore the world of wildlife, learning and capturing the beautiful planet we call home.
I specialize in Motorsport and Action Photography, Portraits and Wildlife and Travel photography.
This keeps the adventure alive and the passion for photography constantly growing, it also gives me a platform to share with fellow photographers, hosting wildlife photography courses and photographic walks in these different genres.
