Capture the delicate colours of spring blossom in the Waikato

About the event

Join me for a spring photo walk shooting amongst the cherry blossoms in Cambridge during golden hour and at sunset. Photographers of all ages and levels of experience are welcome to attend. This is a great opportunity to talk photography, meet some new people, and take great photos!

As this is a casual event there won't be any formal teaching but I'll be on hand to offer tips for camera settings to capture great shots and give you ideas on compositions and lighting.

Instructions on where to park and meet in both locations will be provided to atttendees approximately 1 week before the event.

You don't need a Sony camera to attend this event, but a selection of Sony cameras and lenses may be available to try during the evening. Please email me at least two weeks before the event if there is anything specific you would like to try.

Techniques covered

  • No formal techniques, but advice on camera settings to best capture the spring blossom and using filters in landscape photography will be covered.

What to bring

  • Camera and lenses. I recommend both a wide angle lens for landscapes and a telephoto zoom lens if you want to get nice close ups of the blossom or tui that also like to hang out in the trees.
  • Tripod. I do have one spare - message me if you'd like to use it.
  • Filters for use at sunset if you have these. I will have spare Kase filters for people to try - please email me beforehand so I know your lens size.
