Explore Cabramatta with a travel photography workshop
Nearly all of our Sydney workshops use the city’s iconic urban landscape as a basis for their photography training, but Sarah Jenkins’s travel photography workshop uses it to highlight the skills required to give your holiday photos an air of professionalism. SignaturePhoto - Sarah’s company - has been offering up the best photography courses in Sydney for over twelve years, and her Vietnamese Sydney photography workshop is among one of the most unique experiences she has available.
Based in Cabramatta, you’ll traverse the area known fondly as Little Saigon and illuminate a different culture with your camera lens. You’ll explore Cabramatta’s bustling fresh food markets and sample some authentic Vietnamese street food, all while learning how to snap it all up with your camera. Sarah herself has over twenty years of travel photography experience and has captured images in over 138 countries, so she’s the perfect candidate to show you the ropes of photography in Little Saigon. It’s also the only photography class in Sydney that comes with a steaming hot bowl of Pho!
Learn how to capture portraits
We have so many amazing photography courses in Sydney that will help you expand your knowledge in unique and exciting ways but Rod Cage Photography offers you the chance to learn how to capture portraits in a fun, hands-on experience. Although this photography workshop is available to people of all experiences, individuals who already have a firm grasp of the photography basics will find this class particularly enthralling.
This photography workshop will provide you with an opportunity to learn from an experienced photography instructor, where you'll learn basic portrait principles and how to take advantage of studio lighting. You will also be taught the different types of gear and modifiers, how to set up lights correctly and how to create diverse three-light setups. By the end of the class, you should leave with newfound confidence and skills to tackle any portrait photography project that comes your way.
Capture Sydney at night with this photography course
Grab your camera and tripod and join Alfonso and his team for this night photography short course! If your photography training has yet to lead you into the dark, you’ll be shown how to capture key Sydney attractions using only your camera’s manual settings and the light of the moon! With classes maxing out at eight participants, you can rest assured that you’ll be getting plenty of one-on-one time with your photography class instructor, who’ll give your images instant feedback so you can improve immediately.
Once again this class is open to beginners as well, but having some photography courses and/or knowledge behind the lens will stand you in good stead for this workshop after dark.
With so many photography courses in Sydney to choose from, you wouldn’t be amiss in feeling overwhelmed as to which one to choose. For complete newcomers, our beginner’s photography classes are perfect, but individuals with more experience looking to level up can have a more difficult time choosing.
