Nature and Wildlife Photography
Be inspired by this Sydney wildlife and nature photography course
This photography class is run on various Saturday mornings throughout the year in Sydney
Our nature and wildlife photography lessons in Sydney are designed to inspire and give you a foundation in some of the specialised photographic tips and techniques to become a proficient nature and wildlife photographer. Your Tutor, Master Photographer Pavel German, will present you with some of his amazing images of wildlife from around the world, illustrating the use of a range of nature photography techniques which will be followed by a brief explanation of how and why they were used. The course will inspire and challenge novice wildlife photographers and consolidate the skills and practices of those already adept behind the lens.
Get back to nature with Sydney wildlife photography classes
During your photography classes, Pavel will cover some key aspects of nature and wildlife photography composition. He will offer practical tips on how to implement them when working with animals as well as various ways to emphasise connection with the subject.
We follow with an in class shoot demonstrating the use of small inexpensive flashes to give studio quality lighting for animal subjects, so portable, they can be used in the most remote of places. Your wildlife photography course will finish with an opportunity to try out some of the techniques covered during a nature and wildlife photography session.
