Hi everybody!
These images are from our Heritage Aircraft Photography Course last week at Point Cook RAAF Base. A big thank you to the staff at the base for their support and help. We had a great time, and the museum provides some wonderful opportunities for creative photography.

This isn't just walking among old airplanes in a museum—the stunning lighting and unique shapes allow for incredible shots (sometimes our students get so caught up looking for photos that they forget where they are!).

Our next Heritage Aircraft Photography class with available spots is on Thursday, December 3 (weekdays are much quieter!). The class starts at 10:00 am, and the cost is $129.

Hi Everybody-These images are from our Garden and Flower Photography course held a week ago. We always love this class—Fitzroy Gardens in Melbourne offers such a fantastic variety of flowers and scenery within an easily walkable distance.

Because of the compact layout, I’m able to bring along gear like tripods, flash units, and macro lenses for everyone to try out on location. Plus, the gardens are brilliant year-round, with ever-changing blooms no matter the season!

Our next Garden and Flower Photography course is coming up on Sunday, December 13. For more information as well as our 2027 dates, please visit the Flower Photography Course page on our website via the link below:

Hi everyone! Theses images are from our Wildlife Photography class at Healesville Sanctuary.

I must admit, our Wildlife Photography course here is always one of my favourite classes. No matter the season or weather, the sanctuary is a fantastic spot for photography. We normally visit twice a month, and these images are from our class last week. Due to some last-minute transfers, we only had one student, but we always run our classes—personally, I really dislike events being cancelled at the last minute just because of low numbers!

We are next at Healesville on Saturday, October 2 at 9:30 AM.
Cost: $129 (plus entry; Zoo members enter free)
