Gary 9 February 2025

Lacked what it promised. No real guidance , just a walk along the riverbank with a camera and tripod.

Experienced guide, learnt alot!

Hayley 6 January 2024

Braedan was an excellent and informative guide, I can now confidently use my camera in manual mode and have some great tips and tricks to get the most out of my photos. He also checked in a couple of days prior to the tour which allowed opportunity for questions etc. The tour highlighted some really special places around Adelaide too that I have never paid much attention!

Fun Informative

Lesley 8 May 2022

Sarah was very helpful and informative. The weather was not the best (heading into winter) despite this Sarah looked for interesting places to photograph and keep us as dry as possible. Was a fun night that went really fast. I will do the day time course in the future.

A Great Class!

Desmond 23 May 2021

This was a great class - really well paced & Sarah explained all the technical aspects clearly. Great one to one support as well with a small group. Would highly recommend.

Awesome intro to photography

Nicole 28 March 2021

My partner bought me this amazing gift for Christmas to learn aa bit more about my DSLR. This 2.5 hour course was great! We hit a few really good spots in the city, and practiced some really simple but super useful tips and techniques. Feel confident that I can use manual mode now :) I know a bit more about lighting, composition, portrait taking, ISO, aperature/f stop and shutter speed.

Photography workshop for beginners was excellent

Thank you Daniel for an informative afternoon.The three hours flew. You have empowered me to take the camera setting off Auto and to try thinking more creatively.

Highly informative

Ben 31 August 2020

Daniel was knowledgeable, helpful and patient enough to not only walk us through the basic and best settings, but also to give us a little extra time and tips at the end for some astral photography even with the cloud cover. Appreciate the effort!

Excellent way to get a different take on Adelaide

Travis 24 November 2019

Had a really nice night wandering about taking some photos I probably wouldn't normally. Daniel was informative and had some great tips and interesting locations to shoot. Nice to get a bit of inspiration.
