About the Book
This photobook is a project close to our hearts. It features imagery of wild and orphan elephants taken during our visit to Kenya in September 2009.
After spending a marvellous week in the Maasai Mara watching herds of wild elephants graze, wander and socialise we were lucky enough to visit the David Sheldrick Wildlife Trust (DSWT) orphanage in Nairobi. Here we saw the devastating results of man's influence on the natural world. Tiny, orphan elephants, separated from their mothers in the most horrendous of circumstances demonstrated that they were capable of love once more.
We were moved to tears by our visit to Nairobi’s David Sheldrick Wildlife Trust and wanted to do something to help support the orphan elephants of Kenya. That's why we decided to chronicle the lives of wild and orphan elephants in Kenya, and are dedicating all profits from the sale of this book to DSWT
