Please also note
The locations we visit during the session may require the purchase of a car park ticket. Please make sure you have adequate change.
Please bring along food and drink, sensible footwear for walking on unpaved pathways and suitable clothing.
The session will require an adequate fitness level as we will be walking on unmade paths and coastal areas, as example, you will need to be able to carry your camera bag while walking for 20 minutes along the coast.
Camera insurance is not included in the price.
Don't forget to charge your batteries. Make sure that you have sufficient space on your memory cards for a day’s shooting.
