Wildlife sightings and behaviour cannot be guaranteed.

These are more than just wildlife photography trips. Each experience combines the opportunity to photograph wildlife with practical, hands-on photography tuition and guidance throughout the day.

Whether you’re new to wildlife photography or looking to improve your existing skills, I’ll help you get the most from your camera and the conditions on the day.

Tuition and guidance can include camera settings and exposure, shutter speed and aperture, autofocus and tracking moving subjects, choosing the right lens and focal length, composition, working with natural light, positioning for the best photographic opportunities, understanding animal behaviour and anticipating moments, photographing wildlife in different environments, and tips for getting sharper, more detailed images.

I’ll also help you find and identify wildlife throughout the experience, while explaining what to look for and how to anticipate behaviour.

Every experience is adapted to the location, wildlife and conditions on the day, so there is always an element of discovery.

The aim isn’t simply to go home with photographs. It’s to leave with a better understanding of how to create them.

Photography sessions often take us outdoors and onto a variety of terrain, so it’s important to come prepared for the conditions. The British weather can be unpredictable, so it’s always better to have a little more with you than you need.

Weather-appropriate clothing – layers are recommended so you can adjust easily throughout the session.

Full-length trousers – particularly recommended as some photography may involve kneeling, sitting or getting close to the ground.

Comfortable, sturdy footwear – walking boots or suitable outdoor footwear are ideal, especially on uneven or muddy ground.

Waterproof jacket and trousers – even if the forecast looks good, a spare waterproof layer is always worth bringing.

Camera and lenses – bring the equipment you would normally use, along with any lenses you’d like to learn more about.

Camera strap – recommended if you’re not using a tripod or monopod.

Spare batteries – fully charged, with a spare if you have one.

Memory cards – fully charged batteries are no good without space to save your photographs!

Lens cleaning cloth – useful for keeping your lenses clear of rain, dust and fingerprints.

Tripod or monopod – if you have one and would like to learn how to use it effectively.

Sun cream and sun protection – depending on the weather.

Hat and gloves – particularly useful during colder months.

Drinks and snacks – bring whatever you need to stay comfortable, whether that’s a hot drink, cold drink or both!

Any photography accessories you’d like help with – if you have equipment, you're unsure about, bring it along and we can go through it together.

Most importantly, come prepared to get outside, have fun and take some photographs!
