I have been photographing the Blue Mountains for well over a decade, and each location will be selected based on local knowledge of conditions and time of year, giving us the best possible opportunity to capture some unique and memorable sunrise imagery.
Each location is easily accessible from nearby parking, and once we meet, we will spend some time going through the landscape photography basics and gear, along with some location based tips that will help you get the most out of your session, and, as a local guide, I will give some interpretive guiding on the history, geology, flora and fauna so you will leave with a deep appreciation of the area to help tell the story of your images.
Why not spend the rest of your day exploring other great locations in the mountains, where I am able to offer you some travel tips on places to visit based on the conditions of the day.
