Well hello there… it’s been a while! 👋😊

Life has had a few other priorities for me lately – including healing from my broken ankle, which is so much better now – so social media found its way further down my list (maybe off it altogether).

Right now though, I’m popping into your feed (hopefully) with a question…

Who wants to do some wildlife photography with me? 📸🦘

I’m gathering a few wildlife photography enthusiasts for an outing at Bonorong Wildlife Sanctuary on Saturday 19 September.

We’ll be learning by doing as we unpack our first focus topic: ways to achieve sharper photos of wildlife.

And because I’ve been a little last minute getting the word out about this one – oh my golly gosh, it’s only 9 days away – book your place and it'll be my shout for your day entry fee into Bonorong. Deal❓ Details in the comments.

All that aside, plenty happening behind the scenes at Shutterbug Walkabouts too, including something I’ve aptly named Focus Shift. I’ll tell you more about that in time to come (or you can hop on over to the blog on our website for all the goss).

For now… who’s keen to get out with their camera?

Watching and listening to the way this story is unfolding makes my heart sink. 🥲🦭 LIke many others, I genuinely worry about where all this might lead.

Wildlife photography is so much more meaningful and rewarding when our presence doesn’t change an animal’s natural behaviour.

Neil is a wild seal, not a tourist attraction. He deserves the opportunity to rest, moult and simply be, without people crowding his space or influencing his behaviour.

If we truly love wildlife, respect has to come before the photograph.

❤️ Please give Neil the space he deserves.

One of the things I love most about spending a few days at the Bay of Fires is having the time to simply observe.

While this coastline is often celebrated for its sunrises, I find myself just as captivated by the changing light from mid-afternoon onwards. As the afternoon unfolds, the colours, textures and mood of the landscape quietly evolve.

It’s one of the many reasons I enjoy sharing this experience with our shutterbug guests.

When much of Hobart is painting the town red, we paint the penguins red. 😅

This Little Penguin paused long enough for a photograph as we watched a waddle come ashore for the night.

The red glow comes from the torchlight we use after dark while being mindful of the wildlife we’re there to enjoy.

One of the things I loved most about last year’s Becoming Nightwise workshop was witnessing the moment when things started to click.

Throughout the day our conversations led to so much more than camera settings and techniques. Confusion gave way to understanding, knowledge expanded and confidence grew.

It came from understanding why something worked, what changed and what to try next. It was incredibly rewarding to witness creative freedom coming to light and the deeper enjoyment of photography emerging beside it.

There are a couple of places still available on my small group photography workshop “Becoming Nightwise” on 4 July.

During the afternoon we’ll explore key camera settings and discover how your camera responds to light. After that, we’ll head out into the field for a guided photo shoot from twilight to dark to apply what you’ve learned. Even if an aurora doesn't put on a show that night, you'll leave with practical knowledge to apply the next time the stars twinkle and southern lights dance across the sky.

Are you ready to become nightwise?

This curious Brushtail Possum crossed our path during a nocturnal wildlife walk with guests.

With so many places around Tasmania that inspire awe and creativity, I often find it can take a lot of thought to choose a favourite.

The Bay of Fires would certainly be among the places that continue to draw me back.

There is something about wandering this coastline with a camera in hand. The orange granite, white sand, turquoise water and ever-changing light create an experience that feels different every time I visit.

Perhaps that’s part of the appeal. Experiencing this remarkable place is different for each of us. We notice different things, respond to different moods and create photographs that reflect our own experience of being there.

This September, I’ll be sharing that experience with a small group of women on a Women’s Photography Escape to the Bay of Fires.
If this sounds like your kind of experience, you’ll find the details in the comments.

Your phone pings with an aurora alert. Excitement kicks in. You grab your camera and head on out.

The aurora appears. The awe is breathtaking and you really want to create an image that captures the magic. Then comes the uncertainty.

Which settings should I use? Why isn’t this photo working? What do I need to change, and how?

If you’ve ever found yourself asking these questions beneath the night sky, Becoming Nightwise is for you.

I’d love for you to join me for this small group workshop that explores the foundations of night and aurora photography through guided learning, experimentation and a twilight-to-night photo shoot.

Discover how you can be ready when the night sky shimmers …

The grace and power of a Wedge-tailed Eagle is surely a living, breathing definition of awe.

Once alerted that two wedgies were soaring directly over our house, I quickly grabbed my camera on my way outside to take in what is a truly special sight to behold.

These are the kinds of moments we work towards in my bird photography workshops - not just capturing the image, but learning how to recognise and respond to the moment as it unfolds.

Sitting by the birdbath, camera at the ready, comes with so many rewards.

In stillness, the breeze shifts through the trees and the sound of birds chirping is a peaceful thing… then, in an instant, everything changes. Wings lift, energy builds and you can feel the moment about to unfold. In that swift moment, camera up and shutter clicks! 🦅📷

It’s this balance of waiting and responding that makes bird photography so rewarding – learning to recognise when something is about to happen, not just after it does.

I’ll be exploring this and more in my bird photography workshops this May. There are still a few places available for those who feel drawn to spend time in these kinds of moments.
