Bird Photography is certainly a challenging photography genre when you're out in the field with your camera, but that's not where the challenge ends. Your'e not done the moment you capture a nice image.

It's now up to you, as the photographer, to edit the images to recreate the magic that inspired you when you were photographing the birds. It's more than just showing an image of the bird you saw, it's about conveying the emotions of how it made you feel when you took the picture.

Getting the best from your bird photos is what this one-day workshop is all about. We will explore the workflow and editing techniques to make your images shine. Even if your images are a little bit off in camera, there are limitless opportunities to enhance your images and create photographs you will be proud to share with family and friends.

Whether you're an amateur photographer or a serious enthusiast, our 2-Day Adobe Lightroom Classic workshop can provide you with the skills required to develop your own digital workflow. Learn to manage your image library & edit your images to produce stunning images you would be excited to share with family and friends.

We combine presentations, demonstrations, and hands on practical exercises to provide a balanced and effective learning experience.

New to Photoshop or need a refresher? This 2-Day workshop is designed to give you a solid foundation in the basics of Adobe Photoshop.

This workshop is ideal for photographers who need that little extra creative capability for tasks that cant be done in Lightroom & for those looking to get into the creative world of Digital Art Compositing.

Whether you're new to photography or an experienced photographer looking to consolidate your knowledge, this one day workshop will assist you in understanding the key elements of successful photography.

In the Photography Essentials workshop we will explore the elements that make up a good photo such as subject, lighting and composition before we turn our attention to the key technical elements of photography such as Exposure & Focus.

We will also go through an introduction to how to process your photos once you take them. We will have a look at a range of options available for managing and editing your images.

This workshop is geared towards beginners and intermediate shooters looking to gain a better working knowledge of shooting with models in a studio environment. We will start the class with a discussion on lighting, and quickly move to using this new knowledge to shoot some compelling images The basic focus of the course will be to show you how I shoot with models and what I have found over the years has worked for me to create my style of photography.

If you've ever been curious about how the professionals (and aspiring professionals) truly light their subjects, then this workshop is for you.

You'll learn the skills and the techniques to do this all on your own, with advice on which gear to use and why. No previous lighting experience is required.

Bird Photography is intensely satisfying. First there is the joy of simply being outside, in nature and amongst the birds. Then, there is the satisfaction of viewing your images and creating your own piece of art. 

We are fortunate in that Australia is home to some of the world's most iconic birds with almost 900 species on offer, many of which are found nowhere else on the planet. The variety of species ranges from small birds such as the tiny Weebill, to the larger birds of prey such as the Wedge-tailed Eagle and the well recognised Emu. 

The Bird Photography Workshop, held over two sessions, is perfect for beginning to intermediate photographers wanting to learn more about their cameras and for gaining a good understanding of the principles and techniques involved in bird photography.

We cover the techniques to get the most out of your camera and tips on bird behaviour that will improve your chances of taking images that you'll be proud of. In addition, we will cover some of the essential post processing techniques for bringing your beautiful bird images to life. 

For most photographers the comprehensive capabilities of Lightroom Classic is all they will ever need to get the most from their photos. On some occasions you may be looking for that something extra to truly bring your images to life. That's where Photoshop comes in!

Photoshop brings a wealth of additional potential to Lightroom Classic users and in this workshop we will cover some of the more important photoshop techniques most often required.

*This is not a full Photoshop Workshop that covers all aspects of Photoshop - it only covers some of the more common editing requirements needed by Lightroom users. Please see our Photoshop Essentials workshop if you are looking to get a more detailed understanding of Photoshop.
