What You’ll Learn
I’ll take you through more than 30 wildlife images I’ve captured around the world and break down exactly how I captured each shot.
This is more than just a technical discussion on settings and lens choices though, as working with animals in the wild comes with its own unique set of problems.
You’ll learn my tricks for ‘posing’ animals in the wild, how to avoid missing must-have moments, lighting hacks, as well as some key editing processes.
