Recent reviews of Private Photography Class - 3 Hours
- 5/5 from Natasha Rayner, attended Sep 2023: Evan was everything I could have hoped for in a teacher! He was patient and funny and extremely knowledgable. This class taught me so much in the allocated time we had. I definitely came away feeling extremely satisfied with the time we spent and new skills I had obtained. Would highly recommend him to anyone on any level - beginner or advanced. Thanks so much Evan!
- 5/5 from Tess Monteith, attended Jan 2023: Fantastic class! Exactly the knowledge I was hoping go receive from this. Evan knew exactly what I was asking and was able to give me the tips and advise I needed to go out and put it to practise. Definitely recommend this to anyone with the basic knowledge and looking to fine tune beyond an auto camera function
- 5/5 from Anabella Vargas, attended Jan 2023: Very informative class. Was focused on what my daughter needed. She learnt a lot and gave us great tips on which equipment she needed.
- 5/5 from Alastair Prior, attended Apr 2022: Evan was a great teacher - he spent a lot of time beforehand to understand what I wanted to get out of the class, and making sure we tailored the session to it. Never felt rushed, and I learnt lots of info. Thanks!
- 5/5 from Karen Norman, attended Feb 2022: My 3 hour photography class with Evan was exactly what I needed in order to understand my camera. Evan explained all ISO, aperture and shutter speed in an easy to understand way even drawing diagrams. I now have an understanding of the relationship between the three functions and am able to take better pictures. We talked about leading lines and what happens when you slow the shutter right down. I thoroughly enjoyed my class and would definitely recommend
- 5/5 from Dinuk Wijewardena, attended Oct 2021: Awesome. Attention to detail. Highly recommend. Great guy. Helpful. Got an overall understanding about basics.
Your teacher
Evan Sycamnias was first introduced to photography when he was only eight years old. By age nine, he had made his own camera and was processing black and white prints in a small makeshift studio. By age 13, much to his exhilaration, he was bestowed the family’s Agfa Isola I, a medium format film camera (120mm) made in Germany – which he still possesses to this day.For Evan, photography (and later videography) was a way to capture breath-taking moments and present them in a form that remained timeless, allowing others to experience events as though they had been there for themselves.For more than 10 years Evan was a part of the exciting world of high-speed off-road racing, where he spent a large portion of his time managing ‘Team MudRhino’ – a creative group with 15 members who produced more than 45 full-length DVDs. These productions were sold globally and earned the group several awards – including the prestigious CCDA ‘Media of the Year Award’ in 2008.In 2016, his attention was turned to landscape photography, and he spent a large proportion of his time travelling the globe to remote locations including the Himalayas, India, China, Egypt, South and North America, and Singapore. Many of his images received awards and recognition, and some went on to be featured in magazines.Today Evan spends his time mentoring aspiring photographers; overseeing one of Australia’s largest photography forums; consulting with small businesses on building social media content; undertaking photography of private functions such as engagements and weddings, and most importantly he seeks to inspire his own children to find their inner artistry with a lens.
