Through the Lens




I own a very huge interest in my countries history. I believe that there is importance to knowing what your past is. Not only do I think of it like this but so does thousands of others. Others like Adrian Steirn who are interested in South Africa's rich history.


Adrian Steirn



Adrian Steirn is a profound photographer , who was born & raised in Sydney. He visited South Africa during family trips a few times before finally settling down in 2008. 

During his journey , Adrian has become the embassodor for Nikon , mercedes-Benz,  Lowerpro , Gitzo & also works with WWF South Africa's Photographer-in-Residence. All impressive right ? , but what made me even more Intrigued - was how he could tell a story through pictures. You know the saying  "a picture tells a thousand words" .

This Lad' , Founder & Director of 21 Icons & Grinkgo Agency,   captured the naked beauty of 21 icons that contributed tremendously to South Africa's rich history. Men and women like...
