MILFORD SOUND & WANAKA - NEW ZEALAND

6-DAY LANDSCAPE PHOTOGRAPHY WORKSHOP

( limited to 8 places ) 

New Zealand is our specialty.

Having lived in New Zealand, and with over 20 years of experience I feel I have a deep connection with New Zealand and this country is now in my soul, I call New Zealand “My spiritual home”, and I thoroughly enjoy guiding clients here, showing you my favourite places and capturing jaw-dropping scenery. 

 In this unique workshop, we will discover and photograph two of my personal favourite regions in late Autumn. Milford Sound is world-famous for its stunning beauty of towering snow-capped peaks climbing out of the ocean and the raw wild wilderness forest areas of lush greenery, mosses, and pristine mountain lakes and streams. Wanaka Region is home to the famous crystal clear Lake Wanaka, a stunning mountain and lakeside setting, with close proximity to Mt Aspiring National Park, a World Heritage Area, and The Haast Pass, a tranquil mountain pass through the Southern Alps that crosses through scenic beech forests, and gorges. This area showcases rugged backcountry tussocklands and unique landscapes from rugged rock formations to picturesque wide and sweeping valleys.

“ This workshop very much has an emphasis on "old-fashioned" customer service and is about a smaller group with 1 on 1 personalised guiding and tuition to ensure you learn plenty and come away with beautiful photos. We really like to take the time to have 1 on 1 time with each client and ensure they learn exactly what they wanted from the experience, we don't rush locations and we won't leave a location until all clients are satisfied with their photos, it's very important to me that the clients maximise their learning opportunities and really enjoy all aspects of the workshop.
