Do you want to learn photography and get the confidence that comes with knowing what your camera functions do?
And when to apply them for type of photography YOU want to do?
Then my Beginners Photography Workshops are for you.
Starting just after lunch and finishing at sunset, you’ll learn all you need to know about your DSLR or Mirrorless digital camera. The day is tailored for YOUR brand. So whether you’ve got a Canon, Nikon, Olympus, Fuji, Sony – at my photography course I speak your language.
Over the past few years I’ve helped hundreds of photographers achieve those ‘light-bulb’ moments at my beginners photography course.
Imagine the feeling when all those numbers, settings, buttons and dials finally mean control and creativity instead of confusion and doubt – because once that happens it starts to get really fun. I focus on 3 main things:
And you’ll receive a copy of my comprehensive notes from the day.
This is what my Beginners Photography Workshop is all about – to help you Find Your Focus.
So – Get off AUTO forever!
Spend the afternoon mastering your camera with Andrew Thurtell m.photog at the Gold Coast Regional Botanic Gardens at Benowa for a day that will change your photography – forever!
It’s a big afternoon. Together we will cover:
And so much more! Because everything is explained in an easy to understand way, it will help you learn photography and thoroughly understand all your cameras settings. And furthermore what they are designed to do.
So think of this photography workshop as having someone in person explain the entire camera manual to you. While attending beginner photography classes of any kind can seem like a daunting prospect, I guarantee my photography class is the opposite. You will have a brilliant day full of learning and make some new friends along the way.

From Crystal:
Have been on two of Andrew’s photography class now and my photos just keep getting better and better. His flexible teaching methods and hands on approach makes the courses practical so you get in there and learn photography faster. Love his classes and will keep going back for more, as I have had so many “light bulb” moments when it comes to my photography that I can’t wait for more enlightening!
