We'll be talking about how he approaches a shoot; how he plans, working with clients, the gear he uses, and his most memorable images from his extensive photography career.
During this one hour webinar we'll look back at some of Andy's favourite images and breakdown how he creates stunning work for designers, builders, corporate and residential clients. We'll also touch on awards and Andy's approach to competitions.
We'll also discuss:
