The South West, Western Australia
Teaching Theme ~ Seascapes Saturday 25th May - Wednesday 29th May, 2019 5 Days/4 nights $2695 per person (single room accommodation) Max of 5 places Open to all levels WA - The South West
I grew up in WA so the South West holds lots of fond memories for me, I made a trip there recently and although I hadn't been there for 20 odd years I was surprised how it had kept its natural beauty. Sure the towns had grown but the beaches and rugged coastline were still the same. Our workshop will start on Saturday morning where you will be picked up in Perth, we will make our way down to Dunsborough and this will be our base for the duration of our workshop. On the way we will stop off and photograph the famous Busselton Jetty, extending 1.8 kilometers over the protected waters of Geographe Bay, the heritage listed Busselton Jetty is the longest timber-piled jetty in the Southern Hemisphere. From Dunsborough we will explore this fantastic area as far south as Margaret River, rich and diverse in photographic fodder, from rugged iconic places like Sugarloaf Rock, Canal Rocks, Castle Rock,Yallingup, Bunker Bay, Prevelly Park, Gnarabup Bay, and Redgates to the quiet turquoise waters of Meelup Beach. Most places are quite close to our base so not a lot of driving which means plenty of time behind the camera. We will make our way back to Perth on the Wednesday and arrive there around 5pm, if you need to catch a plane I can drop you off at the airport or if staying on in Perth a Hotel drop off can be organised. Our accommodation at Dunsborough will be at the beautiful "Waterfront Dunsborough", here you will have the comforts of home and each person has their own room. Meals during the workshop are all included, it will be a mix of eating out and some meals in-house. Whilst at Dunsborough we will have breakfast, lunch and two dinners in-house.. A yummy cooked breakfast is on offer along with fresh coffee, just what you need after a morning shoot.    What will I learn
Seascapes are pretty much my specialty, join me on this workshop and I will teach you the secrets of making awesome Seascape images.
There is a lot to learn with so many different elements that will dictate what images we produce when shooting seascapes. Here are some key points we will cover:
Not only is this workshop full of fantastic locations but during our shooting sessions I will be on hand to guide you and improve your photography. We can cover technical or visual techniques, no matter what level you are at my aim is that you gain some movement forward in your photography skills whilst attending my workshop. And with only 4 participants there will be plenty of one on one time where I will work with you personally at your level. You will also be asked to bring 5 prints along for a group critique, these sessions are invaluable and it really is amazing what we all learn when dissecting and analyzing an image. So rest assured that during the workshop I will be your guide and your teacher. |

Testimonials
Dean led our South-West coastal photography workshop recently, and it was great to get away for a few days and just focus on photography
The accommodation was excellent, and Dean provided lots of nutritious food to keep us going. I learned a lot from his relaxed style of teaching, and picked up many useful guidelines and tips to get good compositions, pick good light, and use filters in a creative way. Dean picked the best locations, and we were rewarded with excellent scenes to capture. Thank-you Dean.

Enjoy Great Culinary Meals Fully Supplied
I know you are going to be working hard (and enjoyably too!) throughout the week and deserve the best of meals. There will be gourmet meals on offer. Fresh coffee will be available and necessary before sunrise shoot and after that, breakfast will be a mix of in-house and cafes. Lunch is typically a light affair while a gourmet dinner is served after the evening shoot. If you have any dietary requirements, simply inform me when you are making your booking and we will take care of that.
Bookings
My desire to ensure the best possible environment for transmitting knowledge makes it necessary to keep each workshop group small. Therefore, spots are few and booking necessary to secure your place in any group.
