Frank van Egmond, born in The Netherlands in 1976, moved to South Africa in 1998 to stay for a single year, but has been returning regularly ever since. Gradually his time spent in Africa lead him to narrow down his field of interest to wildlife and nature photography.
Over the past few years he has spent much time off the beaten track to obtain his magnificent shots of African flora and fauna.
In 2009, FVE MEDIA was established, offering rights managed wildlife images for picture buyers and offering prints to businesses and consumers for display purposes.
