Photographic Mentoring

Learning photography is an on-going process that can literally span a lifetime. Photographers who come to Nature's Light are from all walks of life. Some are complete beginners looking for a way to enter into a new pastime and even career. Others are experienced enthusiasts looking for ways to further push their creative knowledge and expressive ability. Photographic knowledge incorporates so much more than just learning the technical process of using a camera.

To assist photographers looking for a more open-ended approach to learning and growing in photography, we have launched a new mentorship programme. These programmes are based on the needs and requirements of individual photographers over an extended time frame. This allows for a much larger base of knowledge to be acquired.

Unlike ad-hoc private tuition, mentorship programs are designed to cover a period of time and a number of topics.
