Landscape Photography Workshops & Tours
Want to learn how to take amazing landscape photos and have fun doing it? Of course you do!
I host landscape photography workshops and tours throughout New Zealand at epic locations like Aoraki Mt Cook, Twizel + Tekapo, Queenstown + Wanaka, Fiordland and the West Coast.
I also partner with Sony NZ as a Digital Imaging Ambassador. This means you have the chance to try out the latest Sony cameras and lenses during the photography course if you wish. The workshops are also sponsored by KASE Filters NZ, so you also have the chance to try out world-class neutral density filters to create amazing images.
My photography workshops are always jam-packed with fun and learning! I'll teach you how to improve your composition, master your camera's settings and learn how using filters will enhance the images you capture. You'll also discover easy Lightroom techniques to turn your original RAW files into stunning landscape images.
I also host interactive online courses covering a range of photography topics with step-by-step, easy to understand visual learning you can complete at your own pace.

Together with award-winning wildlife photographer John Parker (Maddox Photography), we have designed a joint incredible wildlife & landscape photography winter experience, one that will take you from the frozen landscapes of Hokkaido to the cultural heart of central Japan. In the north, we focus on the country’s most iconic wildlife encounters - elegant red-crowned cranes in the snow, whooper swans gathering in icy wetlands, and the powerful Steller’s sea eagles on the coast. From there, we explore the wintry landscapes of Biei before arriving in Nagano.
