Learn to see like an artist and create beautiful images of flowers and nature!
Gardens are bursting with colours — and it’s the perfect time to sharpen your skills in capturing nature at its most beautiful. Join my relaxed and inspiring small-group Nature and Flower Photography workshop on Sunday 24th of May and learn how to photograph flowers, plants and natural details with more creativity and confidence.
Whether you’re inspired by dreamy close-ups or striking garden compositions, this hands-on workshop will show you how to create images that truly stand out.
I’ve scheduled only one session, and places are limited to 6 only.
Hold on to the Magic You Saw!
A flower 🌸 stops you – Colour, Shape, Light – and you whisper “WoW”
You take a photograph and carry the moment home.
Later that evening, you check what you’ve captured, and the image doesn’t quite sing.
It’s fine, but not how it felt; the magic is missing.
That’s the quiet gap between what we saw and what we made…
If this sounds familiar, if you’ve ever thought,
“Why doesn’t my photo look the way I remember it?”
– this course is for you!

This hands-on creative workshop is designed to change the way you see and photograph flowers, leaves, and natural textures.
We slow down, simplify, and make intentional choices: where to focus, how to shape the light, what to include (and leave out) in the frame. You’ll learn to translate that wow moment into sharp, elegant images with depth, clean backgrounds, and beautiful colour – consistently.
- Focus with intention: quick autofocus habits for sharp petals; simple manual focus tricks for dreamy abstracts and soft edges.
- Handle the breeze: choose a steady shutter speed to freeze wind—or slow it for a gentle, painterly blur.
- Keep quality high: use ISO wisely for clean files; when to shoot RAW (best for colour and printing) and when JPEG is fine.
- Tones and natural colours you can trust: a no-stress primer on metering so whites stay white and reds don’t blow out.
- Light you can shape: find flattering shade, use simple diffusion/reflectors, and make petals glow with backlight.
- Clean, calm backgrounds: separation, angle, and “shooting through” for depth and beautiful bokeh.
- Compose with confidence: fill the frame, balance space, rule of thirds (and when to ignore it), guide the eye.
- A gentle editing routine: a few sliders—colour, micro-contrast, local masks—for a polished, natural look.

You can also book me to learn how to edit your pictures in Adobe Lightroom Classic and/or Photoshop – how to get the best out of them, especially if you shoot like me in RAW image format!
