Lou Coetzer - The Original Nature Photography Mentor
With 50 years behind the lens, Lou has lived through the glory days of film photography, through the turmoil of shifting over to digital photography and eventually mastering the balance between portraying the stories nature tells us and taking technically correct images.
Lou innovated the world’s first revolving photography chair and boat and acted as Head Moderator for numerous Nature Photographic Competitions.
Along with the Internationally renowned Da Vinci Institute and Wenzel Kotze, he launched the “Towards Synergy – Leadership Principles reflected in Nature” Corporate Leadership Program based on his book with the same name. He was born and bred in South Africa and although he loves travelling all over the globe, his heart will always be in this beautiful continent called Africa.
DO THESE STATEMENTS SOUND FAMILIAR ?
- You have a passion for conservation and just began your wildlife photography journey and urgently need guidance.
- You have just purchased a new camera and are uncertain about how to set it up.
- You feel a bit stuck in your nature photography because the only thing that has changed in your photography was the destination.
- You don’t know the current status of your photography and what the next level of nature photography is for you.
- Your photographic workflow is slow, and editing is inconsistent and frustrating.
- You do not have an effective rating system in place to differentiate between the good, the extraordinary and what’s promising in your portfolio of images.
- Over the years, you have accumulated a vast number of photographs with which you have effectively done nothing at all other than Facebook and Instagram posts at best.
- You are driven and determined to tackle these hurdles and know that once you do, each and every Safari from here on out will be rewarded with amazing images that truly portray the moment and emotion you felt at that specific moment in time.

MENTEE TESTIMONIALS
" What a great opportunity I am getting to be critique the images from my previous shoot so that I can utilize that information to make sure the next ones are better than the last. Lou has a sharp eye for picking out details that can enrich my work. His ability to dissect an image for it's good and bad qualities helps me to see things that I wouldn't have noticed myself. He is honest about what doesn't work and is equally encouraging about what I am doing that does work. He makes himself readily available for comprehensive sessions as well as those quick "check in's" to see how things are going and to take a peek at what I have captured. "

"I have entered the Nature Photographer Mentorship Support Program. Today I want to say thank you to Lou Coetzer for the phenomenal opportunity to be mentored by him. If you love photography, but you want this extra edge - you will NOT MAKE A MISTAKE to treat yourself to this absolute eye-opening program! I am excited - I am driven - I am empowered!! I took a step in the right direction .... if you want to better yourself - contact Lou ... what an absolutely amazing individual that broke down the old dilapidated building and started with renovation to build the new foundation in my life ... Thank you... thank you!"

" I have spent a small fortune to visit some exotic destinations and ended up being disappointed when viewing my images back home.Lou knows his field of expertise and based on a review of your nominated photographs, he is able to analyse the scene and using your metadata, give you informed feedback on possible flaws in your nature photography or camera techniques.
That first session immediately answered some questions for me and allowed me to immediately make a mindset change in terms of techniques in use."
