Claire Gillo speaks to three renowned travel photographers for their advice and insights \u2013 helping you to take better adventure, wildlife and portrait images<\/h2>\n
\n

Travel photographers Ulla Lohmann, Mattias A Klum and Lola Akinmade \u00c5kerstr\u00f6m share insights into their photography, and how you can get better at adventure, wildlife and portrait photography on your travels.<\/p>\n

Adventure photography<\/h3>\n

Ulla Lohmann<\/h3>\n\"\"<\/a>\n

Ulla is a photojournalist and filmmaker with a Bachelor of Science in Natural Resource Management who works regularly for the likes of National Geographic, GEO and the BBC. She will be leading our Expedition Papua New Guinea photography holiday<\/a> in association with Zoom Photo Tours, running from 17-29 November 2022. Visit www.ullalohmann.com<\/a> and follow @Ullalohmann on Instagram.<\/p>\n

Ulla Lohmann is passionate, inquisitive, adventurous and driven. Not only is she an amazing storyteller through her imagery she also has a great knowledge of her subjects, and says, \u2018I\u2019m curious about the world, about people, and I want to push the borders of what we think is possible.\u2019<\/p>\n

Volcano Adventure<\/h3>\n

She has been to places and taken images that many of us can only imagine including abseiling 600m into an active volcano to record its features and surroundings. Ulla is the first woman to ever do this.<\/strong> When asked how it felt, Ulla replied, \u2018It is like you are descending into hell. It is bubbling, it is boiling, the gases get up your nose and your eyes have tears in as well.<\/p>\n\t\t

\n\t\t\t\"Two<\/a>\t\t\t

It\u2019s really hot and you can\u2019t breathe very well because you have your gas mask on and the Earth is trembling and shaking. But I had been waiting for this moment for so long so it was like heaven. It\u2019s this kind of ambivalent thing \u2013 nature is so big, and we as humans are so small. This volcano can destroy lives in a second but it also gives life.\u2019 Ulla describes a German saying, Leidenschaft, which means passion but translates as creation through suffering which sums up her journey to get to that moment perfectly.<\/p>\n

Of course Ulla didn\u2019t achieve her ambition on the first attempt. She had to build up her skills (she is also a very competent rock climber) and return many times waiting for the perfect conditions. On one attempt she described the fear when it started to rain as they were already into their descent. \u2018When it rains in a volcano it becomes acid rain, and this rain was threatening to destroy our ropes. We had no choice but to abandon.\u2019 Lucky for Ulla and her small team, which included her husband, they made it out safely.<\/p>\n

Kit-wise, Ulla uses the Canon EOS R5<\/a> to take both stills and film. Packing smart is a must as she has to keep her kit weight to a minimum.
\n\u2018I love prime lenses but when you\u2019re inside a volcano you have to use zooms because you can\u2019t zoom with your feet!\u2019 Keeping her kit protected when facing the searing hot elements is another must.<\/p>\n\t\t

\n\t\t\t\"Munganau<\/a>\t\t\t

Initially she took a protective case for her camera, but found she could not operate it while wearing all her protective equipment and so abandoned it. \u2018I was putting the camera over the lava lake and then taking it back again to cool down.\u2019 Luckily the equipment still worked!<\/p>\n

Papua New Guinea<\/h3>\n

Ulla is not just a volcanic expert; she has also travelled the globe including exploring Papua New Guinea taking photos of indigenous tribes \u2013 some as far back as 20 years ago. Ulla regularly returns to Papua New Guinea and is running a Zoom Photo Tour this November that includes both volcano and tribe encounters. \u2018If I\u2019m passionate about a place, or about people, I love to share them so other people can get great photographs too.\u2019<\/p>\n

Her first encounter with the Anga tribe in Papua New Guinea came after she read in a guide book how they mummify their ancestors. \u2018It took me three years to find them. I invested my money and my time, and started to learn the local language.\u2019 When she finally tracked them down, the tribe leader at first rejected her request to photograph them.<\/p>\n

\u2018It took me an entire week to get their permission. You can\u2019t just walk in there, it takes time, but it was worth the effort as I met wonderful people and they show me something new every time I go.\u2019<\/p>\n\t\t

If you\u2019re thinking of going down the same route as Ulla, she has some words of wisdom. \u2018Find a story, and stick with it. When it\u2019s good, get it published.\u2019 Ulla states that you can be your own publisher on social media. \u2018Find your passion, find your story and make sure you take really good photographs of something unique.\u2019<\/p>\n

Ulla\u2019s top 3 tips:<\/strong><\/p>\n

    \n
  1. Prepare well. Think of not only how to get to the location but how to get back out!<\/li>\n
  2. Pack only what you need. You don\u2019t want to be lugging around unnecessary weight.<\/li>\n
  3. Look after yourself. Think about warmth, food and making sure you are comfortable. You\u2019ll last much longer out there if you do.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

    Wildlife photography<\/h3>\n

    Mattias A Klum<\/h3>\n\"\"<\/a>\n

    Mattias is a photographer, filmmaker and artist. He has shot for National Geographic and now collaborates with his partner Iris Alexandrov Klum under the name Alexandrov Klum to create large scale installations of photography, film and sound. Visit www.alexandrovklum.com<\/a> and follow on Instagram @alexandrovklumofficial and @mattiasklumofficial, Twitter @mattiasklum, and YouTube @TierraGrandeFilms.<\/p>\n

    Mattias A Klum started his career in 1985 as a freelance photographer in his home country Sweden. \u2018From the beginning I focused on nature,\u2019 he tells us, \u2018and after I became more established I got assignments abroad. I realised that by juxtaposing the way we are, and how we alter things in nature we are destabilising entire ecosystems. I felt that if I only concentrated on the beauty, it would not be enough. Through my work I wanted the challenges to be known and visualised and the mindful awareness to be elevated.\u2019<\/p>\n

    Mattias’s big break<\/h3>\n

    In 1991 Mattias got his break with National Geographic as a young contract photographer and worked there for over 20 years. \u2018I was much younger than other people when I started and it was a tremendous privilege, but obviously I also felt that it was an incredible challenge.\u2019 By 1994 Mattias realised that some of the stories he wanted to tell, he couldn\u2019t do justice through stills so he started to make films as well.<\/p>\n\t\t

    \n\t\t\t\"golden<\/a>\t\t\t

    \u2018I\u2019ve always been curious. It\u2019s like a creative itch, and it\u2019s still with me today when I work as an artist with my wife and artist companion Iris. It\u2019s a different thing to be a documentarian and an artist but I love to stretch myself.\u2019<\/p>\n

    Over the years Mattias has used all kind of equipment to record his subjects and stories, from analogue cameras, Super 16 film, Nikon digital camera bodies to his current Fujifilm GFX 100S<\/a>. Due to the type of work Mattias is creating with Iris they need the high 102MP medium format sensor the Fujifilm boasts for their large installations. \u2018We have gone from a field gear kind of set-up into a world of other tools that can help us visualise our dreams and our projects as we want to work now.\u2019<\/p>\n

    Extreme locations<\/h3>\n

    Mattias has travelled extensively and photographed wildlife and the environment in extreme places, from the rainforests of Costa Rica to the freezing landscapes of Iceland. He continues to talk about the privilege of having access to many extreme places and the bureaucracy and red tape that comes with it.<\/p>\n

    One project called Venom that Mattias was lucky enough to be part of for National Geographic recorded some of the most deadly snakes on the planet in order to find new drugs and cures for diseases like cardiovascular disease and Alzheimer\u2019s. \u2018Assignments like that were a dream for me.<\/p>\n\t\t

    \n\t\t\t\"Patagonian<\/a>\t\t\t

    I photographed this Patagonian fox in Torres del Paine National Park, Chile, during a National Geographic assignment. This individual turned out to be a good model; beautiful, quite easily habituated and curious. 1\/200sec at f\/10, ISO 200. Image: Mattias A Klum<\/p>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\n

    I love the natural history part, I love the science part and the holistic conservation message that brings into context because if you want to harvest the ideas from nature in a sustainable way, nature needs to be there. You can\u2019t log all the rainforest, you can\u2019t disrupt all the ecosystems because then all the shortcuts and knowledge are gone.\u2019<\/p>\n

    Keeping his gear protected in extreme places is by no means easy. \u2018High-quality, durable equipment is very important to start but you can destroy anything if you\u2019re in a saltwater environment or a rainforest or desert when you have sand and dust everywhere. It\u2019s about daily maintenance and to have the right watertight or dust-proof cases to use in certain environments.<\/p>\n

    If you get sand or moisture into the wrong places they are pretty shortlived regardless of their quality.\u2019 During some of Mattias\u2019 trips there would be an assigned technician whose job was to maintain all the equipment, but on other smaller trips Mattias would do this job himself.<\/p>\n

    To be a successful wildlife photographer you need patience and determination to ensure you get the shot. Mattias recalls one assignment when he was trying to get a shot of a kinkajou. \u2018I spent many, many weeks up in the rainforest canopy at night to get the first pictures of the wild animal in its realm.\u2019 It took him 17 weeks of blood, sweat and tears before he got anything.<\/p>\n\t\t

    \n\t\t\t\"Baby<\/a>\t\t\t

    \u2018When it happens it\u2019s of course wonderful because it\u2019s what you dreamt of and it\u2019s a story you want to tell. It\u2019s about a wonderful creature in an incredible realm that needs protection.\u2019<\/p>\n

    These days he is focused on his artwork and conveying the message of how we can exist while protecting nature. \u2018We live in a time where we put so much pressure on nature and we\u2019re dependent on nature for our survival. So many times we have put nature on the brink \u2013 nature needs us to allow it to recuperate and to come back and thrive again.\u2019 Mattias hopes to inspire the notion of change.<\/p>\n

    \u2018We need to understand the transient supply, the fragility and how unique our situation is. We are at a crossroads where we can choose to go down the same path \u2013 a path that is proven no good \u2013 or a move to a more innovative, sustainable, circular and mindful way. We hope that through our music, films and photography we can bridge the gap between our clever human minds and our emotional human heart.\u2019<\/p>\n

    Mattias\u2019 top 3 tips<\/strong><\/p>\n

      \n
    1. Go for the story, not just for beautiful pictures.<\/li>\n
    2. Give yourself time and don\u2019t be stressed. Spend enough time to know what\u2019s in front of you.<\/li>\n
    3. Do your research and have knowledge of the animal you want to photograph. It greatly increases your chances.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

      Portrait photography<\/h3>\n

      Lola Akinmade \u00c5kerstr\u00f6m<\/h3>\n\"\"<\/a>\n

      Featured in National Geographic, New York Times, the BBC, and more, Lola is an award-winning visual storyteller and bestselling author who runs her own online academy, Geotraveler Media Academy. She is also a 2022 Hasselblad Heroine and the 2018 Bill Muster Travel
      \nPhotographer of the Year. Visit       www.akinmade.com<\/a>, and follow Lola on @lolaakinmade.<\/p>\n

      Lola Akinmade \u00c5kerstr\u00f6m likes to travel light. \u2018As a travel photographer who focuses mostly on people and environmental portraits as well as environment details to convey a sense of place, I need to be as nimble as I can and adapt to fluidly changing situations or contexts,\u2019 she reveals. Lola has met and photographed a wide range of incredible people across the globe from strangers in Uzbekistan, market vendors in Serbia, to fishermen in Nigeria and the Seychelles, each with their own story and identity.<\/p>\n

      Lola currently shoots on the full-frame Nikon D750<\/a>, however she is in the process of switching over to the mirrorless Hasselblad X1D II 50C medium format camera with several prime lenses that range in focal length from 21mm to 90mm. \u2018I\u2019m loving the quality of the images and the intentionality that comes with using fixed lenses when creating these images.<\/p>\n\t\t

      \n\t\t\t\"travel<\/a>\t\t\t

      My favourite lens for environmental portraiture is the 90mm. It gets me close for good eye contact yet gives me enough distance to capture as much of their environment as possible as I can, for wonderful cultural lifestyle shots.\u2019<\/p>\n

      Light and shadow<\/h3>\n

      Although Lola sometimes carries an off-camera flash set-up with some umbrellas she prefers to look for natural light first. \u2018Single source lighting always adds a wonderful dramatic flare to environmental portraits and when I travel, I always seek out that contrast between light and shadows to place my subjects.\u2019<\/p>\n

      When it comes to taking a stranger\u2019s portrait Lola is full of sound advice that comes from years of experience in the field. \u2018It takes a lot of humility to stop strangers going about their everyday lives and ask them for a photo. It\u2019s a huge responsibility that comes with respect.\u2019 She continues to talk about gaining trust and pushing aside your own ego to ensure the image is all about the subject rather than the photographer.<\/p>\n\t\t

      \n\t\t\t\"<\/a>\t\t\t

      \u2018And this is why I absolutely love shooting travel portraits. It\u2019s about relinquishing control and giving over your power. The art of vulnerability and humility.\u2019 To create an effective environmental portrait Lola likes to look for interaction in both how her subject\/s are interacting with others and\/or the environment.<\/p>\n

      \u2018My goal is to show the world how my subjects want to be shown to the world, not how I personally want to show them,\u2019 she states. \u2018I don\u2019t objectify for the sake of my own craft.\u2019 This remains in Lola\u2019s consciousness and what drives her as a photographer. \u2018To listen to people. To acknowledge, truly acknowledge people, and to show them in their most positive light with dignity.\u2019<\/p>\n

      Being honest and authentic<\/h3>\n

      For Lola it is important to be honest and integral. \u2018Sneaking shots means you don\u2019t have full creative control of the portrait,\u2019 she says. \u2018Once you get permission, it\u2019s easier for you to not only get closer to people, but move them to different spots and locations to set up the shot in a more creative way.\u2019<\/p>\n\t\t

      \n\t\t\t\"travel<\/a>\t\t\t

      Image: Lola Akinmade \u00c5kerstr\u00f6m<\/p>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\n

      She also states the importance of ensuring your subject is relaxed. \u2018I often say that getting a stranger to relax long enough to grant you momentary access into their world is one of the hardest parts of travel photography.\u2019 Lola\u2019s tip for this is to ask them a random and somewhat confusing question!<\/p>\n

      \u2018While confusing people might sound counterintuitive to getting them to relax for a photo, it has actually worked for me almost every time. The goal is not to necessarily have them laughing but to have them release that guarded tension in their face they\u2019ll often put up with a stranger \u2013 in this case, me as the passing photographer.\u2019<\/p>\n

      Lola finds that most people are happy to have their portrait taken if you first acknowledge and approach them with respect. \u2018People are intuitive and often can easily read your body language if you\u2019re not being genuine.\u2019 Lola has had people say no and she doesn\u2019t force it. \u2018I simply respect their wishes and continue interacting with them.\u2019 Lola finds that her open manner means people will often relax and let her in anyway.<\/p>\n\t\t

      \n\t\t\t\"portrait\"<\/a>\t\t\t

      \u2018Many of us are afraid of photographing strangers while travelling because of the fear of rejection and the shame caused by rejection. Photographing people during your travels means being vulnerable and humble while still being self-confident. Yes, often you have to give up control by putting your subjects in charge.\u2019 She finishes on a sound piece of advice. \u2018Once you fully acknowledge people (as simple as calling them by their name) and you keep your ego in check, you\u2019re on your way to capturing great portraits.\u2019<\/p>\n

      Lola\u2019s top 3 tips<\/strong><\/p>\n

        \n
      1. Acknowledgement. Make sure you get the person\u2019s name and call them by their name often. It communicates respect and that you fully see them.<\/li>\n
      2. Always ask for permission. It gives your subjects collaborative control as well.<\/li>\n
      3. Tell people exactly why they caught your eye. Let them know exactly why you want to take their portrait and most of the time, they\u2019ll let you.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n
