Story Telling at the Lavender Fields

Join us on a trip to a Lavender farm for a really fun day shooting. There is something for almost every genre of photography here: portraits of visitors in their colourful outfits, plants and bees for close up/macro and the fields themselves for landscape. Whatever your passion you'll find it in the lavender fields!

This is a great day to learn a little bit about colour theory with all the complimentary and contrasting colours about. And it is a great location for photographers to practice shooting different genre's, meet and chat with other photographers and get some great photos.

We've got a few small projects for you and will help with camera settings if you need it so you come away with shots you'll be proud of.
