Neil's love of travelling and diving went hand in hand with his new found love of photography and in 2009 he settled in Cape Town, South Africa and successfully completed a higher certificate diploma in photography at Vega School of Brand Communications. This formal training fuelled further determination and love, and increased his desire to pursue a career. This experience has ensured also that Neil is competant in many disciplines of photography and his passion and yearning to learn more continues in earnest.
