Hear what my students are saying...
“As a landscape fanatic, I’ve always struggled when photographing the coast, water, sand, etc. This course has totally changed my photography. Will is an amazing teacher and his enthusiasm really made me feel like I can improve!”
-Ben R.
“I’ve not been shooting the coast much as there isn’t a “nice” beach near me. But man, your techniques for photographing in those situations have changed that. I recently created a series of images and have my first exhibition…of the beach…which I’ve never photographed before! Thank you!”
-Denia P.
“Most photographers I’ve watched teach how to shoot like them. Will is not like that. He has an infectious love of nature and a desire to teach me how to communicate what I see, in my own way. I’m now actually confident at all shutterspeeds on the beach and getting amazing shots!”
-Jacob S.
"My photography journey began by the sea and it’s a place that provides endless inspiration and creative possibilities. Putting this course together was highly enjoyable and allowed me to pour out and share everything I know and love about capturing the ocean. It’s my hope that after watching this, you’ll not only have an arsenal of new tools and understanding of how to work with the sea, but also a renewed passion and drive to get out there with the camera. Cheers!"
