New Zealand’s South Island: 6-Day Awesome Autumn Landscape Photography Workshop

Join our exclusive 6-day Landscape Photography Workshop on New Zealand’s South Island, limited to just 8 participants for an intimate, personalised experience. With over 25 years of deep connection to New Zealand—” my spiritual home”—I’m passionate about guiding you through the breathtaking Otago and Mackenzie regions, a landscape photographer’s paradise. My extensive knowledge of local weather, light, and lesser-known locations, combined with local contacts, ensures you’ll capture world-class images in iconic spots like Aoraki/Mount Cook, Tasman Lake, and Lake Wanaka, where golden autumn foliage, vibrant hues and crisp landscapes glow under the season’s soft, radiant light.

Why Choose This Workshop?
This workshop emphasises old-fashioned customer service, offering one-on-one mentoring from two accomplished guides, ensuring photographers of all levels leave with stunning, portfolio-worthy shots. Enjoy comfortable transport, cosy accommodations, and hearty meals, all designed to keep you focused on your craft. With only 8 spots available, you’ll receive tailored feedback in a small group setting, surrounded by the vibrant beauty of New Zealand’s autumn landscapes. Don’t miss this chance to explore my favourite places and create unforgettable images.
