SOUTHWEST FULL DAY WORKSHOP
Only 8 Places Available
To coincide with the release of my new ebook 'An Inroduction to Capturing the Coast', I am offering this one day coastal workshop. Join me for a full day workshop in the Southwest. We’ll make the most of our time starting at first light and finish after the sun goes down. This will be a day of feasting for the senses with the opportunity to learn how to see and capture stunning landscapes in an array of light and conditions. You will visit some of my favourite locations, including some off the beaten track little corners I know and love to capture.
This is an intermediate grade workshop, so will need you to know your way around your camera and its exposure settings. It requires a moderate amount of fitness with the ability to go off the beaten track with steep inclines.
As part of my workshop you will receive a copy of my custom designed landscape photographers notebook. Adding an extra tool to your photography kit.
