Capture the autumn colour in the Garden & chat all things photography!

About the event

Join me for an Autumn Photo Walk and Coffee Meet Up in the world-renowned Hamilton Gardens.

Note: This is a free event however you will need to pay a $20 entry fee for the enclosed gardens (if you don't already have a Pass) AND bring money for a coffee!

We'll meet at 9.30am for a coffee in the Hamilton Gardens Cafe, a chance to chat all things photography for an hour or so before we head into the Gardens for an autumn photo walk.

The autumn colours are stunning here during May and this is the perfect time to capture them!

Sony gear may be available for loan for the event, if there is anything you would like to try please message me on photos@meghannmaloneyphotography.co.nz with your request at least 2 weeks before the event.

Sunday 4th May will be a back up date in case of bad weather - as the gardens offer a lot of cover we'll only postpone if it's seriously bad!
