Small group, great instructor no question too silly felt totally comfortable and had a much better understanding of the 'whys and whens' of photography by the end of our session.

Excellent intro to basic photography

Jane 26 September 2022

I very much enjoyed the three hour beginner (photography Course) run by Robert. It was pitched at the right level for a novice like me. Robert was patient and answered all questions professionally and created a relaxed environment- I was very impressed with what I learnt in just a few hours. Thanks Robert.

Great workshop with an excellent instructor

Just recently did the course with Robert and learned a lot about night photography. Robert was an excellent teacher and great to chat with. Would highly recommend for beginners like myself.

A pleasant afternoon for Beginners

Pete 2 February 2019

The overall afternoon was very pleasant with a polite instructor. I found the content on this class very basic with allot of time going over the basics of appature, white balance, shutter speed etc. I didn’t really learn anything new but did confirm that I knew the basics. The afternoon gave me the opportunity to explore my camera a bit more with bulb mode etc. I ended up doing my own thing after a while or spent my time waiting to move on. Wasn’t much walking and stayed about 100m from where we started which could be good for some and allowed more time to shoot photos. The others in the group It would have been nice if the instructor was also taking photos so we could see how a pro would do it. The feedback on our shots was basic and would have been nice to get some more details feedback on how to improve the shots, or something else to try. Like I said, good course but confirmed I need to do something more advance in the future I reckon. Thank you to the team for the loverly afternoon.

Night photography during Enlighten Canberra

Rajesh 13 March 2018

This was an excellent evening workshop. Penny is good at teaching and gave some excellent tips. She also spent time explaining why a particular shot / angle/ lighting works so that it is easier to extrapolate to other situations. Enjoyed it tremendously.

Fantastic beginner course!

Louise 12 March 2018

Penny was an excellent teacher. I was able to get my camera off the ‘auto’ setting and learn how to actually use some of the settings on my camera. Penny was very helpful and it was a great 3 hour course that I’d recommend to anyone who would like to learn the basics without an overload of information that you’ll forget quickly!

Best night photos I’ve ever taken!

Nick 10 December 2017

Penny’s course was fantastic! She was very knowledgeable and the experience was fun at the same time. Thank you!
