Meet the Team


Felixie Laurens – Baobab Sapling


I’m an independent documentary filmmaker and science storyteller. I’ve had the privilege of developing documentaries for conservation-based NGOs in East Africa while also serving as a wildlife film and photography expedition assistant instructor.

I seek to drive impact while also learning better ways of being creative, inclusive, and interactive in my work. The interactions I’ve had while facilitating masterclasses within the wild have pushed and motivated me to need to try to and be better at it so I can share these skills to the younger generation. I’m a big believer that as Africans we want to inform our own stories & represent ourselves wholly. We should protect and preserve our biodiversity.

Driven by the vision to create better solutions to conserve the environment and tell the stories of Africa – my mission is to explore this incredible world, learn everything I can, and share powerful, impactful stories.

Rahim Kara – Trunk

I’ve been on the road for as long as I can recall. Camping in the wilder regions of East Africa. Through this passion of nature and wildlife, I’ve been working on my photographic skills over the past 26 years. I’ve had the good luck of having worked with key organizations in Kenya including with the likes of Microsoft, Safaricom and the some of the major hotel groups in and around East Africa.

A lot of my work pre 2000 was done on Film, and a good amount after as well. While I work with both Digital and Film equipment when photographing landscapes and wildlife, I have always believed that the craft is only as good as it’s creator.
