Auckland Street Photography Workshop

We had another great street photography workshop yesterday morning.  I love sharing some hints and tips for taking pictures of people in the street and then getting out there and actually doing it.  It’s great way to spend a few hours on a Saturday.  Sign up if you are in Auckland!   More details over at www.aucklandstreets.com

Auckland Street Photography – Lions vs All Blacks

My July Auckland Street Photography tour nicely coincided with the final Lions vs All Blacks rugby game.   The course proved so popular we had an afternoon session as well as a morning session.  We dodged showers and ended up getting some great shots of ‘normal’ Auckland as well as the rugby fans preparing for the game later that evening! I run these workshop monthly so sign up if you’d like to come along and enjoy the fun!  www.aucklandstreets.com

The Wedding Present Live In Auckland

I first saw The Wedding Present live back in the late 1980s so it was a delight to see them again and take some photos.  Still as good as ever!  With thanks to UnderTheRadar.co.nz
