MELBOURNE BY NIGHT PHOTOGRAPHY WORKSHOP
with Matt Krumins Photography
CAPTURE THE BIG CITY LIGHTS
Night photography poses a unique set of challenges but it doesn’t have to be difficult! My Melbourne by Night photography workshop busts the technical jargon out of the picture leaving you to express your creativity and get great low light cityscape shots every time. We delve into composition, quick tips for instant improvement and break down the complex settings that are holding your photography back all whilst capturing stunning imagery of Melbourne and it’s glowing lights!
SHUTTER & APERTURE
Wrap your head around how your settings interact, giving you endless possibilities with your night photography. Capture both ultra sharp skylines and beautiful light trails.
BUILD DRAMATIC COMPOSITIONS
Learn my process for pulling together dramatic compositions using simple steps that anyone can achieve.
UNLEASH YOUR CREATIVITY
Break the mould and get an insight into rarely seen photography techniques that open up a whole new world of creativity.
WORKSHOP DETAILS
Small groups = More Personalisation.
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
1. MEET & GREET
2. SETINGS RECAP
3. SHOOTING
5. SUPPORT
EQUIPMENT REQUIREMENTS
You’ll need a camera with access to some manual settings for this workshop as the techniques we cover rely heavily on Aperture & Shutter Priority mode. This doesn’t mean you need to know how to use these modes just yet, we just need access to them for the workshop.
Please make sure you have a fully charged battery and space on your memory card.
I always recommend brining a range of lenses if you have them (both wide/telephoto) as they they can be key to achieving interesting compositions.
You will need a tripod for this workshop. If you don’t have one I can arrange a loan tripod for you but you must contact me in advance.
A Remote shutter release is not critical for this workshop but if you have one, bring it along.
It can be cold in Melbourne at night so please dress appropriately and check the weather forecast before the workshop in case there is a chance of light showers.
FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
In photography we never stop learning, so whether you are an enthusiast photographer or or a complete beginner, my small course size will give you plenty of one-on-one attention to ensure new ideas and concepts can be tailored to your experience level.
Awesome! In night photography rain is actually an incredible thing giving us amazing reflections to use in our photographs. If we have light showers or a bit of drizzle we will be out there making the most of it however if we have sustained rain re-booking vouchers will be issued so you can rebook on a date at your convenience.
That said, I always recommend bringing a waterproof jacket as even on a sunny day Melbourne can show off it’s unique ability to change on a dime!
Your Melbourne by Night photography workshop is limited to a very small group giving you plenty of one-on-one instruction as well as personal attention relevant to your camera brand and model.
Also, I believe that photography concepts take practice and time so at the conclusion of your workshop you will be invited to an exclusive online support group where you can continue to grow your photography alongside other workshop participants!
WHAT ARE PEOPLE SAYING?
I walked away with so much new knowledge, but also a newfound confidence in my own abilities. The whole workshop was not only educational but also a lot of fun. I highly recommend it to anyone looking to take their photography skills to the next level while having a great time doing it!
I highly recommend
For anyone looking for a fun, relaxed, and easy to understand workshop, I highly recommend Matt's workshops. His ability to take technical concepts and break it down to something easy to understand (and actually remember) is the real value-add. This is my second workshop and definitely won't be my last!
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!
Thanks for a great day!
Workshops I’ve done include Master Your Speedlight, Advanced Wildlife and Beginners Lightroom Classic. There is always something new to learn!
Matt’s workshop has made me think differently about my composition and what exactly I’m trying to achieve.
