Hi and welcome to my small corner of the world. My name is John Rodger and I am a professional photographer and keen traveler and also the owner of Capture the Cape, a photographic expedition and tour business that I started in 2012. I live in the beautiful city of Cape Town close to a long white beach and a tall lighthouse with my long-time girlfriend Nikki, between us we have four children.
I did not always live here but come from the vast and thirsty Northern Cape area of South Africa whose character and soul is forever a part of me. I was once in mechanical engineering but that was a long time ago although I think that explains my technical approach to certain aspects of photography. I will personally take you on the tours and show you my Cape Town and parts of the country that I know so well and some that I don’t know so well.
Before I established Capture the Cape I earned my keep as a wedding and commercial photographer but my love for nature and the outdoors and of course exploring new places led me to the photographic touring business and I have never looked back. Below are some links to some of my other work as a photographer.
I also do sport photography and have covered many different sports but I love mountain biking and skating best of all.
Best wishes and I hope to see you soon on one of my tours.
