Introduction to Night Photography (August)

Have you always wanted to capture photographs at night time but don't know where to start?

Join me in Auckland City as we go through the basics of night photography!

Learn how to properly expose your images, how to frame them, and also how to be more creative in an urban environment. You'll get the chance to photograph cityscapes & long exposures.

Bonus Online Session:

All workshop attendees are also invited to join a complimentary online editing session the following evening (Sunday 23 August), where we'll review and edit images captured during the workshop, discuss techniques, and answer any additional questions. 

Please Note: This workshop is solely focused on the BASICS of night photography. If you haven't photographed at night before this workshop is for you!
