Travel Photography Weekend Course

Looking forward to running my travel Photography weekend workshop next month.

This workshop covers three important aspects to becoming a successful travel photographer: planning, capturing and crafting your images. You will master these skills through practical assignments, visual presentation, and group discussions. Ideal for anyone who has some photographic knowledge or has completed one of our beginners’ courses.

The Times Destination Show

A big thank you to all of those that came to the Travel photography talks this past weekend. I am sure you were entertained by Paul Goldstein of Exodus travel, and that some of the pointers I gave will be of use. I hope the selection of images will also inspire. It was all the more fun for me to swop travel adventure stories with Doug McKinlay, about the highs and lows of a travel photographer, and the trickier moments we have found ourselves in whilst pursuing that next best image. We laugh at those near mishaps now, as we live to tell the tale. Thanks to Rough Guides, Time out, Conde Nast Traveller, Insight Berlitz and Thames and Hudson for sending me to some wonderful places. I always am looking forward to the next adventure.

Checking out my children’s photography

Looking through children’s images that I have been taking since 2007, and found these gorgeous little models. All lovely to work with. Would be great to see them printed and mounted large scale.

Rain, rain, rain… but we got the shot!

 

I am sure many other photographers can identify with the experience of the moment you arrive on  a shoot the heavens open. This day was not exception! It thundered and flashed, but with a 15 minute rest bite, and some strong help to shift my props where I wanted them I managed to grab a handful of images, this one being my favourite. Bev was super patient and smiled through all the rain. Thank you too for bringing your stylish red coat.

 

The scent of Flowers

With thanks to Adela, we had fun photographing together amongst the flowers and plants in her Dorset garden. She was a little star.
