Over the past eight years we have had men, women, teens, mums, dads and grandparents. We have had some with a brand new camera, and some who have been shooting for years. There are have been pro-photographers, bloggers and graphic designers. And there have been folks who just want to take better photos with their fancy gear.
Abbotsford Convent has a range of eateries that are both affordable and cater for all dietary requirements. During the lunch break you will be free to walk around the grounds and choose your own lunch option.
Hello and thank you for being here!
I’ve been photographing families for over twelve years, and teaching photography for eight. I present the Love Your Camera workshops and I LOVE the day we spend together talking photography.
If you don’t leave the workshop excited about your photography future, then I haven’t done my job. During these workshops I am an open book. Every little tip, secret and short cut is shared.
I hope you can join me at a workshop soon. I am 100% sure you will be glad you did!
