Come along to our photo sessions to dust off your camera and get snap-happy with a professional photography instructor.

Brush up on your camera skills and learn new photography techniques whilst on a photo walk class with other local keen photographers!

We run two hour photography sessions based on a photography theme/technique/style and they take place in various locations in Great Lakes Bay Region.

  • New to photography? We also run a popular 3 hour Beginners Guide to Photography Class once a month. And once in a while we will run special niche 3 hour classes, for example, Astrophotography - so do subscribe to our newsletter to know when the next on is!

  • Who can attend? Open to all skill levels, from beginners to keen amateurs. The photography instructor is there to help you with camera settings and provide any advice you need.

  • What to bring? We recommend bringing a camera that has full manual mode or semi-manual modes (Aperture or Shutter Priority). Compact cameras and smartphones also welcome!

    The meeting point and full details for the day are sent in the booking confirmation email to the email address you provide at time of booking.

    Join the Great Lakes Bay Region Photography Group on Facebook to share your photos after the session.

    I was tracking a bald eagle in flight, when an Eastern kingbird appeared and seemed to be attacking it. This happened very quickly,and I didn?t even realize what I?d captured until afterwards. The kingbird was riding on its back! Apparently these little birds will attempt to drive off larger ones in their nesting areas, and sometimes actually land on them. A once in a lifetime shot for sure.

    What an epic catch this was to watch! This Anhinga put on quite a show. The fish was flipping every direction to try and escape. The Anhinga was struggling to keep up and at one point lost it or more like he let it go. Then, immediately dove back under and caught the second time. What resulted after was pretty much a gulp, gulp and gone situation. Taken with Canon R5m2 and Canon RF 200-800mm F6.3-9 IS USM lens

    I was watching this osprey flying around the marsh when it dove down and caught the catfish about a hundred yards away and started to fly away from me and I lost sight of it then all of a sudden it appeared behind a bush and popped up briefly just enough to get this shot before it flew behind the bushes again.
