Come along to our photo sessions to dust off your camera and get snap-happy with a professional photography instructor.

Brush up on your camera skills and learn new photography techniques whilst on a photo walk class with other local keen photographers!

We run two hour photography sessions based on a photography theme/technique/style and they take place in various locations in Bathurst .

  • New to photography? We also run a popular 3 hour Beginners Guide to Photography Class once a month. And once in a while we will run special niche 3 hour classes, for example, Astrophotography - so do subscribe to our newsletter to know when the next on is!

  • Who can attend? Open to all skill levels, from beginners to keen amateurs. The photography instructor is there to help you with camera settings and provide any advice you need.

  • What to bring? We recommend bringing a camera that has full manual mode or semi-manual modes (Aperture or Shutter Priority). Compact cameras and smartphones also welcome!

    The meeting point and full details for the day are sent in the booking confirmation email to the email address you provide at time of booking.

    Join the Bathurst Photography Group on Facebook to share your photos after the session.

    Title or Location: Taken from Bathurst Observatory at Billywillinga
    The Eta Carina Nebula is a highlight of the Southern skies. Located not far from the Southern Cross, it is a fairly easy target to capture. This image is an average of about 50 frames taken with a Nikon D7200 attached to a 14 inch diameter F2 telescope. The pink areas are hydrogen gas clouds glowing due to the number of younger hot stars within it.

    Image of Comet Leonard from the first of January back in 2022. The comet was not really visible to the eye, but stunning with the wide angled telescope. The image was taken using a Nikon D7200 at the prime focus of this telescope.

    Title or Location: Grow Early Learning - Kelso
    Every Monday and Thursday, my two boys love when daddy picks them up from daycare. I find the time of 5:30pm is perfect, the golden hour of the sun setting. This gives me a brief moment to appreciate another beautiful day living in Bathurst and what it has to offer. A moment of pure silence to take capture a moment that will last a life time and before I walk into my sons daycare and all the fun chaos begins with having 3 kids under 5 bring.

    Title or Location: Home Yard
    I setup bird feeders at home including a hummingbird feeder. They are super active and are use to me being close to them so I grabbed my Canon R5 with my Canon 70-200mm f2.8 lens and placed myself within 8 feet from the feeder rendering great closeup shots while they feed and the late afternoon sun gives this Rufous hummingbird that beautiful glow

    These Waxwings were in Corby for a while in January of this year, right on the edge of a housing estate. They seemed totally oblivious that we were there. The light was perfect, mid morning. The Rowan trees were on a steep bank which made for no background distractions .Taken with Canon r6, Canon 100-400mm l series 11 lens with 1. 4 extender,
