Photography workshops

This range of creative photography workshops is designed for beginners through to advanced level photographers (see notes for each workshop). Experienced, knowledgeable tutors and small groups means everyone gains hand-on practical photography experience and no one gets overlooked. The workshops are also social and fun.

Note: If you do a Photocourse NZ workshop you will gain real, practical experience by doing the photographic activity yourself. Watch out for advertised "workshops" that are nothing more than demonstrations.

Photocourse NZ photography workshops make ideal gifts for keen photographers. Gift certificates are available.
