Natural Wonders Photography provides the opportunity for everyone from complete beginners to professionals to experience the wonders of the natural world in many different locations in the UK and overseas. All locations are chosen to enable you, the client, to obtain great images from the best possible position and settings. Our aim is always for you to have a great experience in a relaxed and friendly way.
Arriving at the location and meeting other like minded photographers and Janette we met our host for the day.
Chris was great, never short of a tale or information. We flew a Gyr/Saker falcon and a Peregrine first and that is a challenge for in flight shots. The afternoon was a little more sedate with the Indian Eagle Owl and Harris Hawks. A great day and good value for money.
Always putting the welfare of the animals first, they still manage to give you such a diverse set of images to come away with using a seemingly endless supply of props to give you the best possible pictures.
Geoff’s tireless interaction and effort with the animals to get them in the right poses and Roy giving you all the technical help you may need setting up your camera to get the best out of your day makes the experience very special.
A superb relaxed run macro workshop with great sandwiches for lunch and the follow up email with all the details about the animals used for the shoot. I thoroughly recommend this workshop to others.
On arrival I was shown to a very comfortable single room with shared bathing facilities along the corridor, and immediately felt relaxed and at home. Sumptuous meals, hearty breakfasts, afternoon teas, home made cakes and pastries, wonderful suppers of warming chicken casseroles were provided by Morag.
Our tutors Janette Hill and Claire Carter provided a wealth of knowledge and loads of tips, and undoubtedly I feel all the information I have gleaned will enhance my photos and technique threefold. At all times consideration for the varying abilities of the group was taken into account, and one could participate in as many photographic shoots ( and mountainous walks) as one wished.
The weather during the stay was excellent, if not a bit too sunny which somewhat excluded from getting the hopeful more “moody and dramatic shots” that one would have wished to have got as the backdrop to this dramatic terrain. Visits to Snowdonia National Park and the seaside resort of Barmouth also provided much variation. All in all I felt this to be a wonderful experience and a great learning curve, which was made all the more enjoyable by the friendly group and our engaging banter all times.
Would highly recommend.

What about the weather?
We have no control over this! it is of course never 100% certain, so we do have alternative locations and things planned for such eventualities. It’s worth remembering though that sometimes angry skies give the most dramatic results!
