A must-do photography course for anyone who is serious about going beyond the full-auto setting of their camera. Chris and his partner Jess provide clear, easy to understand explanations, tips and techniques that have helped improve my chances of taking better photos. Thanks Chris & Jess!

The course was excellent - fun, informative and in a great location.

The course was fantastic. It was very generous in terms of how much was covered, how many excellent tips were passed on, the amount of equipment available for people to try, and the catering. Chris is a natural and inspirational teacher. The Zoo location was a genius idea.
-
It was both a pleasure and an honour to meet Chris Bray and his partner Jess. The photography course was inspiring, with moments of humour and a wealth of knowledge and experience willingly imparted. I have great admiration of these two with a touch of jealousy of their exciting life they must lead!

I really enjoyed it after purchasing my expensive DSLR camera two years ago I have only taken 5 shots I did not have a clue how things worked now I am a lot more confident in using it now a very enjoyable day with lots of nice people

Great course, excellent for beginners or people wanting to improve their photographic skills. Chris and Jess are very knowledgeable and present a good blend of theoretical knowledge and practical sessions. The location is a great place to put into practice what you learn too!

Fantastic course... Chris makes understanding how to use your camera in the most simplest of ways... Have learnt so much in the 1 day... Definitely recommend it to others.
-
Just a fabulous experience, very professional delivery and great organisation with food, venue etc.
-
The photography course was EXCELLENT. I learnt so much in just one day and had a thoroughly enjoyable time. Having the course at the zoo made for a brilliant location for the practical part of the workshop. I would definitely recommend this course to anyone who wants to 'take their camera off auto'.
-
Great experience which I thoroughly enjoyed. Chris was a great teacher and made the theory sessions fun, informative yet casual. The one-to-one instruction when needed was fantastic. A highly recommended experience for all photography enthusiasts.
-
Great location, great tips!
-
Great teachers, wonderful venue (Melbourne Zoo) - fantastic day!
-
Excellent day
-
My husband loved this introductory course into photography using digital SLR cameras. He found the balance of the theory and practical sessions were quite good for his level of experience, particularly as we are looking at buying a camera quite soon. Perhaps it is more useful to someone considering a Canon product over another brand, as then you can borrow a lens from Chris's selection and experiment a bit.
