SOUTH WEST OVERNIGHT WORKSHOP

Workshop Overview

Join me for an overnight workshop in the beacutiful South West. We will visit some of my favourite locations and take time to immerse ourselves in Mother Natures arms. This overnight workshop will begin on Friday with an late afternoon/evening shoot on the coast. We will extract every bit of light out of the evening finishing in the blue hour with some long exposure photography. 

 

We then continue on Saturday morning bright and early to be on location before the sun gets up and take in the sunrise. From there we will take a break for some breakfast before hitting the coast once again in search of blue waster and waves. 

To complete our workshop we will return to Busselton for a editing session, and image critique. In this session I will share the insights and editing techniques I use to bring out the best in my images and we will have alook at some your images from the workshop for some feedback and assistance.

$325 PER PERSON
