Hi Everybody, These images are from the Safari Photography Course we held last week at Werribee Open Range Zoo. We are extremely lucky to work with the amazing staff at Werribee, who provide us with our own private safari truck. The zoo even organizes specialized guides with photography experience for our groups, resulting in a fantastic morning of images.

While we visit the rest of the zoo, the highlight is always the Savanna area, featuring rhinos, giraffes, ostriches, and many other stunning animals.

We now run classes at Werribee every month. Our next session is scheduled for Sunday, June 21, at 9:30 AM. The cost, which includes admission and the private safari truck experience, is $229 (or $179 for Zoo members).

Hi everyone,
In addition to our scheduled courses, we also run several private classes throughout the week. These images are from a private session held last weekend at the RAAF Museum in Point Cook. If you haven't visited yet, I highly recommend it; the exhibits are stunning and extremely well laid out.

We are currently planning a new class at the museum focused on photographing airplanes and shooting within museum environments. We plan to launch this class in a few months, so please stay tuned for updates.

Hi Everybody, Among our 30+ classes, we run a Sports Photography course at Panton Hill Oval. We chose this location for several reasons, including the incredible support we receive from the Panton Hill Football Club and the fact that our venue is right on the oval—you frequently have to duck from low-flying balls!

The attached images are from our class last week. We had a fantastic day, and everyone captured some unique shots.

Our next class at Panton Hill is on Saturday, July 4, at 11:00 AM. For more details and to book your spot, please use the link below:

Hi Everyone,
Please find attached the images from our second zoo visit last week. The zoo is particularly popular right now thanks to the incredibly cute snow leopard cubs. They are best viewed in the morning and are definitely worth a visit. The rest of the zoo remains spectacular, with the butterfly house and aviary providing excellent photography opportunities.

While we were scheduled to visit the zoo today (Thursday, May 7), we had to cancel due to the extreme cold snap in Melbourne—though I am sure the snow leopards are enjoying it!

We have rescheduled this visit for next Thursday, May 14, at 10:30 AM.

Alwyn’s Photo School currently offers more than 30 classes, events, and workshops at various venues across Melbourne and at our school in Warrandyte. To view all classes, dates, and booking information, please visit our calendar page at the link below:
