Just before Xmas 2020 I completed the recording of over 100 videos covering all I know about Adobe Lightroom Classic. It’s not a course that explains every single little feature like a manual – it’s a distillation of my experience and what I actually do in the day to day operations of running my photographic business.

My latest book, Heart of Australia, is now available signed, direct from me. It’s still on sale in the bookshops of course, but sometimes it’s nice to have a signed copy. I will mail it using Express Post, but only within Australia as it’s very expensive to post books overseas. You can purchase a copy here…

Shutter speeds, apertures, focal lengths, camera brands, post processing tricks – these are all essential things to know about and understand, but, beyond the obvious, there are also plenty of aspects of modern photography that are not so well understood – […]
Join myself, Nick Rains, and my partner-in-photography, Christian Fletcher, for a 9 night exploration of Havana and Trinidad on the Caribbean island of Cuba. The dates are October 16 – 25 2017. As with all my photography tours this is for a small group only – Christian and I take only 8 guests – so with one instructor per four guests there is ample opportunity for […]
Christmas 2014 and I was in Manilla for an Akademie Masterclass as part of a tour of SE Asia. One of the guests, Raul Echivarre, wrote an in depth review of the proceedings which I link to here because it will give you an excellent idea of what my workshop are all about. Thanks to […]
