Bright Photography Bootcamp

with Matt Krumins Photography

5 DAYS OF PHOTOGRAPHY

Mastering photography doesn’t happen overnight, it takes practice, dedication and fun to keep the spark alive and to progress. The Bright Photography Bootcamp isn’t just a a photo-taking tour, it’s an opportunity to immerse yourself in a wide range of different styles of photography for 5 days with a small group of like-minded people with a bunch of laughs. Over 5 days we hone in on the settings and techniques for landscape, astro, sunrise, sunset and macro as well as refining your image processing skills to transform photos into artwork.

To get you up to speed and ensure no-one is left behind we kick start our bootcamp with a theory session covering the basics, all the way through to manual settings, histograms and composition. I pride myself on making learning easy and relatable and this is the perfect opportunity to join me in one of Victoria’s most picturesque locations for a trip to change your photography forever.

With our group limited to just 6 people this is your chance to get the one-on-one help you need to take your photos to the next level and have a good laugh with great people whilst you are at it.

CLEAR YOUR SCHEDULE

5 uninterrupted days to wrap your head around your photography without the distractions and rush of non-photographers.

SOMETHING FOR EVERYONE

We cover a whole range of genres and jam pack our week with all types of photography and image processing.

VICTORIA'S BEST

Bright is one of the most diverse and beautiful settings for photographers. Mountains, waterfalls, wildlife and a brewery!

WORKSHOP DETAILS

Small groups = More Personalisation.

Mon 10am - Fri 12pm

Small groups to keep things personal

Accommodation and meals not included.

Victoria's premier photography playground

ALL BRANDS ALL MODELS

Do you want a personalised approach specific to your camera? You’ve found it. With years of experience and thousands of workshop participants you’d be hard pressed to find a camera brand or model that I don’t know my way around.

WORKSHOP PLAN

Meet at 12:30pm on Monday and finishing at 12:30pm on Friday.

1. GENRES

Throughout our stay in Bright we play to the weather conditions and opportunities. We aim to cover Astro Photography, sunrises and sunsets, macro photography, long exposure waterfalls, wildlife and speedlights and light painting.

2. TECHNIQUES

As we learn and photograph throughout the week we add more and more to your photography arsenal. We look at histograms, focus modes and methods, HDR and bracketing as well as composition techniques.

3. SHOOT

With so much covered over the week it's a great opportunity to build your portfolio of images in many genres with step-by-step guidance from yours truly.

4. EDIT

If we're not on top of a mountain, shooting stars or playing in a waterfall we usually find ourselves at the Brewery going through editing techniques with a cold beer or a nice glass of local King Valley red.

EQUIPMENT REQUIREMENTS

CAMERA

You’ll need a camera… yep. This course is perfect for almost any type/size/brand/model of camera however you’ll get the most out of this bootcamp if you have access to manual settings and have interchangeable lenses.

LENSES

This bootcamp covers a whole range of genres so it’s a good idea to have a wide angle lens, a general zoom lens, and a telephoto lens as a base. A bonus is a macro lens and a nice prime lens but these aren’t essential.

OTHER CAMERA GEAR

-Laptop with Lightroom or similar editing software

–Tripod

–Polarising Filter

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

WHAT EXPERIENCE LEVEL DO I NEED TO BE?

We cover A LOT of content on this workshop but we start from the ground up so even as a beginner you will be more than welcome. I pride myself on having small groups to cater to everyones needs and this bootcamp is no different. You will be surrounded by all levels of photographers from entry level to experienced all who share the same goals, to improve and have some fun.

WHAT IS THE WET WEATHER PLAN?

We get wet. Wet and stormy conditions are what incredible landscape imagery is made of so unless it’s dangerous to be out then we will be out shooting. In the event of really bad rain we tend to hit the brewery for an editing and theory session whilst it passes.

WHAT'S INCLUDED?

Everyone travels differenly. Some of us love sleeping under the stars and some of us prefer just 5 stars and so I am leaving your accommodation choice in your own hands. This allows you to choose your budget, choose who you travel with and choose how long you stay before and after the workshop. I do suggest staying in or close to town though as we meet there and end there each day.

WHAT ARE PEOPLE SAYING?

"If you are thinking of joining Matt for one of his workshops, then do it! Matt is an enthusiastic teacher who manages to get some tricky concepts off in a fun and simple way. Your photos will never look better. I joined him for the Bright Boot Camp and learned so much. And I came away with some photos that I had never dreamed that I would create!"

The Travel and Street workshop was fantastic, Thanks for sharing your knowledge and experience with us, i learnt a lot about different settings on the camera, as well as how to look at the surrounds and scene differently to take unique pictures. Would recommend to everyone.

I had an awesome day with Matt. My day started with the beginners day at Melbourne zoo and ended with the street and travel photography. He showed areas of my camera I had never used before

Had a great experience participating in one of Matt's workshops. Lovely small group and Matt was really welcoming, warm and friendly, which helped ease my shyness of participating in something like this, and made it a lot easier to get involved in. Matt was such a knowledgeable photography educator! Keen to jump into some more workshops down the track!

I have done quite a few photo workshops before. Matt’s Bootcamp was byfar the best photography learning experience I’ve had and definitely the best value for money. He teaches concepts then sets up examples that demonstrates them. Not just wildlife and landscape. He also makes a mean toasty for breakfast/ lunch or dinner.

Darlene Schofield

1699764037

I definitely recommend Matt's workshops. Matt's October Bootcamp was amazing! The photography locations were fantastic. We covered a lot of photography genres with simple explanations & practice sessions. This opened areas of photography I didn't think I enjoyed. Matt adjusted the week to fit the everyone's levels and needs. Nothing was an issue for Matt - he even made sure we had ample coffee & snacks!! Check out what Matt has to offer, you won't be disappointed. I know I won't hesitate booking further workshops in 2024.

Highly recommended! Had an awesome day out with Matt at Healseville Sanctuary on the Advanced Wildlife course. I learnt so much and was great to have sufficient time to put things into practice and ask lots of questions - definitely feel alot more confident heading into my Africa safari next year.

Matt’s courses were nothing but amazing. We did the beginner’s course which ran in Melbourne Zoo and then the street photography course later that afternoon on the same day. Really appreciate Matt providing personalized feedback and sharing tips and tricks that immediately improved our photos. Couldn’t highly recommend Matt enough. Can’t wait to do some other courses with Matt in the future.

Just Terrific.My daughter just attended Matt's introductory course at the Royal Melbourne Zoo.It was a small group, with Matt sharing a judicious amount of information at an ideal pace. Matt is very personable, encouraging and knowledgeable. I don't doubt that each person that attended left the session with a comfortable grasp of the concepts that Matt covered, and would have enjoyed the session immensely.Well done Matt and thank you for sharing your knowledge. I would recommend Matt's course to others, and if in doubt, suggest that you call him to check that the course of interest matches your skill level.Cheers.Andrew

Joined Matt’s Beginners Workshop at Melbourne Zoo yesterday. Highly recommend it, I learnt so much, Matt is generous with his knowledge and time, explains complex topics so they are easy to understand and apply.

I first attended Matt's Street photography course way, way, wayyyyy back in 2017, since then life got busy. I recently retired, if you can call it that and remembering how much I enjoyed Matt's course I undertook a few of his pre-recorded online courses, which were also nothing short of excellent.Most recently I booked a face to face session with Matt as I was stuck as to what to do next with my (very old, think prehistoric) camera kit!You can read all the other reviews here, buy what strikes me about Matt is his incredible passion for photography and how important it is to him for others to really experience that.Moreover, I was surprised after booking one of his pre-recorded courses that he insisted on refunding me the cost because "it was out of date". Honestly, it was slightly out of date at worst, so much so it made no difference! Than again, shortly after our recent one on one session, much to my surprise he rang me as he wanted to share something he had since found out with me.This from a guy who has so many commitments.I also must mention his referral to Nigel at Camera House in Croydon helped me no end, and saved me a few dollars as well!I can't recommend MKP highly enough!... and because you asked, courses I've done with Matt:Travel & Street, Advanced Wildlife, Melbourne by Night, various online courses!On my bucket list: Lightroom, Speedlight at a minimum!

I really enjoyed Matt's Melbourne by Night workshop in and around the CBD. Matt is a great guy and a natural teacher, and also makes it a long of fun. He breaks down the technical stuff to plain English for all skill levels, and it's a great refresher for people who might rate themselves as having some experience with a camera. His structured approach to camera craft is a great takeaway for any style of photography, not just nightscapes. He gets us to think more about composition, too. These are small groups so everyone gets all the attention they need, and what also amazed me is how well he knows all the major cameras. Highly recommended for anyone, whether you're starting out or need to brush up.

What a wonderful workshop. I’ve learnt so much about focus, white balance and my camera. It was fun, Matt was generous and answered all our questions in plain English. I’m definitely booking more workshops. Cannot speak highly enough. Ps I came away with photos I like.

attended the Advanced Lightroom course today and as usual with any course from Matt it did not disappoint. Matt presents in a relaxed and fun way which makes it easy to learn and understand and also creates an atmosphere where you feel comfortable to ask any questions no matter how trivial. Matt has a fantastic teaching style, he is super knowledgeable and the course had great content, I highly recommend this or any of his courses

Cara Nico

1690947591

The beginner’s workshop at the Zoo with Matt was wonderful! He gently builds your confidence and skills step by step, in moving from automatic mode to having more control, without having to go completely manual. I learned more than I thought I would, because Matt made it so easy to understand and remember. So glad I did this workshop as it’s kickstarted my interest in photography again. Thanks Matt!

Ian Kemp

1690633675

I had the pleasure of being part of a small group partaking in the 3-hour Travel & Street Photography workshop in the Melbourne CBD. Matt delivers the workshop with passion and a touch of fun and I love his easy to follow analogies and explanations reinforced with lots of examples to convey new concepts and techniques. I learned so much. Enjoyable and highly recommended.

If you want to learn about photography and not feel like you are the lowest common denominator, then Matt Krummins Photography is where you should go to learn!!I just completed the Master Your Speedlight workshop. Who would have thought I could do so much with this!! There was six of us at all different levels and there was something for everyone. You receive workshop notes and there is plenty of time to ask that question you thought was silly, but really wasn't. You laugh, learn and have lightbulb moments!These workshops are a must if you want to improve and have fun.

Had a fabulous week participating in Matt’s May 2023 Bright Bootcamp. Matt was on constant weather-watch to ensure we made the most of all the weather conditions - sun, rain, snow, fog - thrown at us during the week, resulting in some fabulous photo opportunities. He has extensive knowledge of all major camera systems (mine is Fuji), which I found very helpful and he worked hard to ensure that there was a good balance between teaching, practice and feedback. I highly recommend the experience in this beautiful part of Victoria. Matt also makes a mean carbonara. What more could you want!

Erin Barry

1684971681

I was lucky enough to secure a spot in Matt's April 2023 Bright Bootcamp and it was honestly the highlight of my year! Matt is a thoughtful, considered, unendingly positive, technically brilliant and compassionate teacher and guide - I learnt so much in those 5 days, but be ready, it was definitely a bootcamp!! His way of explaining the technical and creative aspects of each photography style were so easy to understand, and the comedic entertainment and musical education ;) made the journey between locations a blast. 100% would do again and recommend in a heartbeat! 5 FUNS OUT OF 5.

HI Matt. I really enjoyed the Macro workshop. I learnt a lot esp with the lighting. Your explanation of the concepts and the examples were very clear and easy to follow. The location was superb. I may try more macro now rather than my usual close up shots. The downside is that I will have to invest on more gears. Hary Widjaja

Lucky enough to be part of the 2023 Bright Boot Camp. My brain is full of the brilliant tools, techniques, images and memories provided by Matt. Sunrise on Mount Buffalo. Snow on Mount Hotham. Autumnal colour in the Buckland Valley. Learning what to see and how best to capture. No UV filter; No dust on Lens. And last but not least, Matt's famous Spaghetti Carbonara. Fantastic experience - thoroughly recommended! Book for 2024!

Jane Jarman

I had a fantastic day with Matt at Cape Schanck. I love his teaching style as his explanations and analogies I found easy to understand. He answered all my questions and showed detailed examples of what we were there to learn about. We were also given detailed cards and a book with settings to take home with us for future reference.I will definitely be doing more of Matt’s classes and thoroughly recommend then to others.

Thoroughly enjoyed the Beginners Workshop at the Melb Zoo and I now have much more confidence in using Program mode settings on my camera. Matt explained concepts clearly and there was plenty of time to put theory into practice. Definitely recommend this course.

Mario Modica

1681678381

Despite a gloomy, rainy Melbourne day, that didn’t deter Matt from turning all of that into a positive and show us how to create better pictures through story telling, and using the weather to our advantage.I learnt so much about my camera through practical application of real life situations. I feel so much more confident about street photography and turning pictures into stories.Highly recommended to all level of photographers.Thanks Matt.

Shared a fantastic morning on the Peninsula with Matt.My entry level photography skills were no issue with Matt having time (and patience!) to get me going.Learnt a lot and had a heap of fun on a perfect day. 👍

Dianne McPherson

1679286411

I had zero knowledge of speedlights but left the workshop feeling confident and excited by their potential. Matt was personable, simplified the complicated, corrected long standing mistakes(based on other so called 'professional' photographers' advice) and was lots of fun. If you are hesitating, don't. Just do it!

Sandra Barling

1679277388

I had a one on one session with Matt where we focused on my photography issues. Learnt more in that one hour than I have in group 3 hour courses. Matt has a great way of explaining things and has amazing graphics to back up his teachings. Highly recommend one on ones if you want to gain clarity on specific issues

Louise MacDonald

1678771500

Matt's knowledge, patience and good humour make for a brilliant workshop. There were 6 of us on the Healesville workshop, all with different cameras, experience and know-how. Matt tailored the workshop to meet everyones needs and created a fun and engaging day for us all. The amount of work that goes into not only the workshop itself, but the preparation for it is incredible. The first thing I did at the end of the day (even before uploading my images) was to check the next available workshop. Soooo excited for the next one!

Lisa Lewis

1678681407

What can I say...we enjoyed every minute of our Advanced Wildlife Photography Workshop with Matt. The comprehensive workbooks were an added bonus and will be a very handy reference tool for when we go out in to field. Matt is passionate about photography, shared so much information and explained things using some great analogies and he has a fantastic sense of humour. So if you are looking for an awesome photography experience, we highly recommend Matt and his workshops.

Attended yet another of Matt's workshops this week - his first Portrait & Lighting Workshop. As with all Matt's workshops, the content was first-class and it was a fun day with great people. Matt's teaching style is second to none and you won't find a better teacher in photography! Do yourself a favour and sign up to one of his workshops😊

An encounter with (Mathew navas) is a blessing into my life. I thought I've lost it all after the great price dropping of crypto but then again this financial saving man brought me back to my feet after giving him a chance into my trading account with little amount of investment of $1,700 (one thousand seven hundred dollar) Can't believe this man made me a whooping profits of $9,200 (nine thousand two hundred dollar) until i made the withdrawal by myself. As I'm putting out his contacts now, do not hesitate to message him and invest with him. His Gmail address: mathewnavas691@gmail.com or his WhatsApp number: +1 762-239-1392

Matt's marvellous Melbourne Zoo Workshop for beginners was amazing. The capped, small group size is ideal for learning. Matt displays a passion for sharing his extensive knowledge of photography. He has an engaging approach to teach the basic skills required to use a range of cameras to achieve impressive results in just three hours. I highly recommend this workshop. I have already signed up for another workshop. I am looking forward to progressing my photography skills to the next level with Matt's expert tutelage.

Matt’s Advanced wildlife photography workshop was fantastic. The small group size meant we all had the opportunity to get help and support during the day. We also received great notes for reference later if there’s anything we need a refresher on.
Matt’s workshop has made me think differently about my composition and what exactly I’m trying to achieve.

Janelle Woods

I did the Advanced Wildlife Photography workshop and it exceeded my expectations. A great mix of theory and practice and a great dose of humour. The small group size meant we had plenty of opportunities to get our questions answered. Matt is a fantastic photography teacher - practical, engaging, and easy to understand. I cannot recommend his workshops highly enough. If you've been thinking of doing a workshop, stop thinking and just book it. You won't be disappointed.

Matt’s Night Photography workshop was fantastic! Learning how to take night photos was wonderful but it was how he helped me see what to put in or leave out of my framing that took my images for ok to stunning!! I have already booked to do another of Matt’s workshops and I can’t wait to see what I will learn this time. I highly recommend Matt and his workshops!!

Jan Wong

Matt's Beginner Wildlife Workshop at Melb Zoo was great! I went into it knowing basically nothing about my camera and photography and Matt was able to give us some awesome tips/tricks, as well as a run down of the basics so that we could get our heads around how to start to take more meaningful and beautiful photos :) Matt was super awesome and passionate about sharing his knowledge. Not to mention his analogies were great at dumbing down the theory for me to understand! Thanks for a great day at the zoo Matt - 5 stars and would highly recommend to others wanting to learn about photography!

Leanne Zannoni

1665308886

What a wonderful way to learn about your camera and visit the Zoo. Matt’s way of explaining how all aspects of your camera works is just exceptional. You could ask as many questions and never felt judged. I would recommend this class to any age just amazing. I’m looking forward to many more classes with Matt. Thank you

Have just completed the Macro course run by Matt (May 2022). A great day with lots of learning, handouts and small information cards to keep in your camera bag. Matt had lots of ideas of how to photogragh fungi and had enough equipment eg different lighting that we could all try out. A really knowledge teacher with a lovely friendly style. He cooks a mean bbq lunch for everyone - thanks again Matt for a very successful day.

I did Matt's Night Course in the city on Feb 19, 2022. I found Matt very professional and extremely knowledgeble about all the different cameras everyone had. The course was a good range of skills for those with little or some knowledge. Matt continually checked on us all to make sure we were over the current skill he was showing us. Great night and well worth the dollars.

Beginners Zoo workshop on 19 Feb 22. brilliant day. Matt has the ability to explain the technical in such a way that is easy to understand. Practical advice throughout the day. Matt is so easy going that we all felt comfortable and supported. I will be doing further workshops for sure. Already booked some of them.

Claire Bear

Just completed Matt’s Underwater Photography Course and Loved it!! No question was too stupid- Matt was patient and explained everything this complete novice needed to know in ways that made the “technical” stuff much less daunting! He gave easy tips that have helped the quality of my photos already and was great at explaining the How’s and Why’s! 100% recommended!

Dean Mehmet

1639475407

I recently did an Underwater Photography course with Matt and highly recommend it. He thoroughly walked us through step by step how to use our cameras and housings, which settings and modes to start with, and explained so clearly the main things to work on as beginners - how to position ourselves in the water, frame the subject, take care of lighting and reduce backscatter. He then showed us step by step with our own photos how to correct and edit them to bring back the original colours and features. Now to get out there and put it all into practice... Thanks Matt!

Scott Haywood

I did the street photography workshop with Matt and it was both informative and fun. Matt is a good communicator and is very knowledgable about all aspects of photography. He has a pleasant manner and if you'd like to try street photography, travel photography or documentary photography, I'd highly recommend Matt's workshop. Even if you've done some street photography already, you're sure to pick up some great tips and learn something from Matt. The three hour workshop duration is perfect.

I highly recommend doing a workshop with Matt. I did the Beginners Workshop at Melbourne Zoo a couple of days ago. It was fantastic. A very friendly and fun environment. The information was clear, easy to understand and Matt is very encouraging. He really wants you to get the most out of his workshop and progress with your photography. I took some great shots that I would never have achieved before gaining the information and tips that I got that day. I had an amazing day and can't wait to do my next workshop with Matt.
