》Some Kind Words

★★★★★
Andrew and Lewis are two amazing photographers who complement each other well, kinda like Yin and Yang! Andrew knows camera systems very well and has photography skills to match and Lewis is the nature lover come photographer who knows a lot about all wildlife and truly respects their existence and his photos bear this commonality. I thought the trip was very educational as well as being fun, enjoyable and was a team bonding experience.

I was lucky enough to meet Lewis when I took part at an UW photography course he was instructing. Not only did he show excellent and detailed knowledge about pretty much every camera system out there and its operation, his passion and enthusiasm for photography show in the way he answers every single question in a comprehensive and clear way. Lewis has had a profound impact on my inspiration, abilities and progress as a photographer and I cannot recommend him highly enough.

Andrew and Lewis are great hosts. They’re well organised, relaxed, knowledgeable and enthusiastic. They gave me some great tips about composition, as well as the fine detail of my camera.

I had the pleasure of learning underwater photography tips and tricks from Lewis whilst up in Ningaloo. Lewis’ enthusiasm for his craft really shone through as he took our group through hands-on topics including camera settings, gear maintenance, and post-processing. He really has an eye for capturing great photos and encouraged us to search for our own styles in a challenging art that is underwater photography.
