Discover how different lenses can transform your night photography

About the event

Join me for a relaxed evening photography experience exploring Auckland City after dark while trying a selection of lenses in real-world shooting conditions.

Whether you're interested in street photography, urban scenes, architecture, or night photography, this session is designed to help you discover how different focal lengths and lenses can change the way you see and capture a scene.

We'll explore a variety of locations, discuss composition, lens choice, and shooting techniques, and give you the opportunity to compare different lenses throughout the evening.

This is a hands-on experience rather than a formal workshop, making it perfect for photographers of all levels who want to learn by shooting and experimenting.

Please Note
A selection of lenses will be available to try during the event. Availability may vary on the day. If you have any lens requests please let me know prior to the event.
