Night Photography and Lighting

This workshop will focus on teaching you the basics of photographing wildlife at night. This will mostly focus on reptiles, amphibians and inverts. Night photography is a bit harder to understand and do than daytime photography, the settings change and so does our necessary equipment, specifically light! From using headtorches to flash guns. This workshop will be both taught and implemented by giving you hands on help on our night walks.

(Cameras are required for this)

All of our workshops

Our workshops are hybrid-taught, a mixture of both classroom presentations and in-field applications. They are aimed to be interactive and engaging. Each of the workshops will be taught by one of our ARK guides and will focus on examples of the local wildlife.
