Can I learn how to photograph the Milky Way on this workshop?

Yes — this workshop includes a full astro photography session at one of Noosa’s best dark‑sky coastal locations. You’ll learn how to plan Milky Way shots, choose settings, and capture clean, low‑noise nightscapes using tracking or single exposures.

Will we shoot sunrise and sunset as well?

Absolutely. We cover multiple lighting conditions across iconic Noosa National Park locations — including sunrise at Little Cove or Tea Tree Bay, and sunset at Granite Bay, Boiling Pot, or Hell’s Gates depending on conditions.

Do you teach editing in Lightroom or Photoshop?

Yes — each workshop includes dedicated editing sessions at a nearby studio. You’ll learn how to process your astro, landscape, and seascape images using Lightroom Classic and Photoshop, covering focus stacking, exposure blending, and smart masking techniques.

What photography experience do I need?

This workshop suits intermediate photographers looking to level up, but beginners are welcome too. You’ll get 1‑on‑1 guidance tailored to your camera, skills, and goals.

What gear should I bring?

A detailed packing list is provided after booking, but key items include: a DSLR or mirrorless camera, sturdy tripod, wide‑angle lens (14–24 mm), headlamp, ND filters, and a laptop (optional for editing).
