Director, Photographer, Filmmaker & Storyteller

Armand Grobler is an internationally recognised wildlife photographer, filmmaker, author, and co-founder of Rhulani Photo and Film. Born in South Africa and raised in Australia, his passion for wildlife began at an early age and eventually led him back to Africa, where he now spends much of his life exploring and documenting the continent’s most remarkable wild places.

As the author of the acclaimed PHOTO SAFARI KRUGER and the upcoming EDEN: SOUL OF AFRICA, Armand combines artistic photography with powerful storytelling to create meaningful connections between people and nature. His work has been featured in international publications, prestigious photography competitions, and conservation projects around the world.

Whether guiding guests on a photo safari, producing books and films in remote wilderness areas, or sharing stories around the campfire, Armand’s passion and vision remains the same - to inspire others to experience, appreciate, and help protect Africa’s extraordinary wildlife and landscapes.
