Or – as an example – travel around Sydney’s iconic Bondi Beach and its surrounding precinct as you learn all about shooting with your smartphone; the surfers, the lifesavers, the sunbathers and graffiti amongst a whole tonne of other subjects.

We will create an individually tailored training experience – whether it be indoor or outdoor. This can incorporate a visually stimulating presentation followed by a photography challenge for your team, or an exciting fully tailored ‘on-location’ photo expedition for your friends.

Discover the playfulness of the dance between light and dark as you learn how to control exposure and light. This photography workshop will teach you to control your smartphone’s camera to its full potential.
