What a great day!! It has been a very long time since last I was looked after so well by any service provider in any field. Daniel , what an inspiration you are. Ladies- you looked after us like we were royalty. I am out there every weekend getting amongst it with my camera- and I don't think you need two guesses as to who I will be promoting on a massive level. Thank you SPW - I will be back again...... and again!! :) - Jamie Watson

Thank you for a fantastic workshop I highly recommend this workshop to any beginner or intermediate level photographer who wants to improve their photographic skills. This workshop was perfectly structured with the right amount of theory and practical content. Glenn's presentations were highly informative and interactive.

It was a good experience. I used 'flash photography' all the time - weddings. Night photography is diffrent and I really enjoyed it. I will defenitely spend more time doing this. Ben was a great teacher. Always explaining, talking and giving hints. We also had a good group that night. Thanks for the experience. - Sushil Kumar

10.10.2011
Firstly our two instructors Glen and Daniel were both very helpful, and their teaching methods were very effective. I have read books and been told about certain techniques etc, however it was'nt till your workshop, that it all made sense! I have already, and will proceed to highly recomend you workshop to amateur photographers. - Riley Montgomery
10.10.2011
We both walked away from our private session and were excited to try out the camera and our own creativity. Daniel was patient with two novices and really walked us through our camera functions and the best way to achieve results with it.....To anyone about to go on honeymoon, holiday or anywhere that wants more than the grainy, blurry pictures then this is the lesson to take! Thank you so much to Daniel and the team... - Cheers Emily and Mike :)

Awesome workshop guys!! - Daniel Sergio Cantero
02.10.2011
Thanks - As for Kim, he had a good intuition to pitch his tutorial exactly at what I needed rather preparing a rehearsed script. He gave me the kind of advice that you just can't get from reading even the best books. - Richard Skimin

17.09.2011
Last night I asked my mentor, Daniel, to come in and teach the little bit of lighting that I did not know. Hey, I thought, he has taught me for 8 years, I know it all. The 3 hr personal tuition blew me away!...... In a cramped studio we managed to achieve some great fashion shots, but more importantly an understanding of how the ratios of light work...... Listen, this was such a good 3 hrs that it has taken my photography to a new level. I am so excited that I am thinking of making Daniel do a class or two in my studio for others that are interested. Phew! - Don Smallwood
15.09.2011
Just a quick note to thank you so much for last night.....The biggest thing I learned was just how SILKY the skin looked front on. So now the fun begins attempting to replicate such with some set design and story boarding so a big thank you.... I now feel most confident of getting awesome portraits. - Tony Palliser
15.09.2011

I would like to say the biggest thank you to both Daniel and Glenn Lockitch who provided the students with an insightful, interesting, engaging and professional workshop. The quality of photographs that my students produced on the day and since then is outstanding and its a true reflection of how fantastic your guidance was on the day. The students were raving about both you and Glenn to their friends, parents and other teachers. Thanks for helping me provide such a wonderful opportunity for my little photographers. - Kristy Pugliano (Elizabeth Macarthur High School)
24.08.2011
Met some of the most amazing people on the course. Special thanks to Frank who allowed my creative juices to flow. It's just the beginning and am hoping to pursue my new found love. Thanks to Wendy and Daniel as well for their inspirations. Going to check out what course you offer so you haven't seen the last of me yet... xxxxxxx - Mona Chekchok
21.08.2011
Thanks for an excellent day. The day exceeded my expectations, I learnt a lot of new things as well as improved my understanding of how to take great photos of people. Daniel has a great ability of simplifying things I thought were too technical , ie using a grey card. I cant believe how easy it is. I am absolutely certain my photography will improve dramatically. On top of that, I got some of the best shots I have ever taken with a camera during the day. Great to add to my portfolio...... Also a big thanks to Wendy - and the very easy going models who made me feel very comfortable taking their photos. - Mark Morgan
15.08.2011
Thanks again for an amazing day - Renee and I will definitely be back for more! Take care and thanks again - u guys are so amazing. I can only dream of being as talented as you Daniel! - Amelia McKee
15.08.2011
Thanks again for the great day. Learned a lot - especially that you don't need a lot of equipment to make beautiful images.
After my sister saw the pictures, she wanted to take the workshop too - but Germany to Sydney is a little bit to far ;) - Sirah Breitling
15.08.2011
Daniels passion for the subject of Architectural photography and interest in conveying the required skills simply and succinctly, resulted in me learning more in 2 hours than the weeks required in reading books and practicing myself. I now view ‘buildings’ in a creative new light. If you are interested in architectural photography professionally or for say travel, I would thoroughly recommend signing up for some private tuition. - Alese Watson
02.08.2011
Thanks again for an amazing day last Saturday. I had a great time and learnt lots........
