Fine Art Long exposure - Lee filters included

Long exposure photography is a genre in photography that is associated with fine art photography due to the surreal and other worldly effects long exposure photography can bring.

Filters give you the ability to smooth water, blur clouds and make moving objects turn ghost-like or disappear.

Join us on this workshop where we provide a set of exclusive Lee Filters and adapters for the session and take you through everything you need to know about this genre of photography.

You will come away confident with how to use filters at any new location and make your images stand out from the crowd!

We will be going to a few locations either by bus or on foot.
