Close Encounters

Get up close and personal with the creatures at Symbio Wildlife Park.

Join wildlife photographer and Sony Digital Imaging Advocate Brett Lobwein for this rare experience. Brett's work has featured in many publications and TV Shows, including the popular BBC series Deadly 60.

With exclusive access to the park before it opens to the public, you will get inside the enclosures with the Meerkats, Koalas and Quokka (species subject to change on the day), all under the supervision of our very own Zookeeper.

There will be plenty of loan equipment on the day including the new Sony A7 Mark V and their state-of-the-art lenses, so both beginner and veteran photographers will have everything needed to capture the best photos possible.
