Workshops

Join Luke Tscharke and Bruny Island Photography in capturing and showcasing the Island’s unique natural beauty on a Landscape Photography Workshop. Tasmania has a proud tradition of Nature Photography dating back to the 1850’s and these images have played a critical role in highlighting the richness of its natural environment and the imperative for its preservation. Our tours continue in the spirit of that tradition.

Bruny Island, itself, is a microcosm of the Tasmanian mainland. It is blessed with an extraordinarily diverse range of distinct environments – spectacular coastlines, geological wonders, beaches, rainforests, mountains, lagoons, abundant flora and fauna – a cornucopia of photographic material; all at your doorstep!

While bringing you to the many beautiful places this region has to offer, we will do our best to teach you how to take better photographs, to skilfully use your camera and equipment, and help you with post-processing. We pride ourselves on providing highly qualified photography guides to help you improve your photography on our landscape photography workshop.

From a chartered boat, our resident photographers will show you the geological splendour of the rugged Bruny coastline with its abundant sea and bird life – It is here that your journey begins.

Over subsequent days we will take you to some of the Island’s most scenic locations – many of which are situated on private reserves spanning thousands of acres.

Our accommodation offers spectacular settings for communing with the Island’s elemental beauty and unwinding from the day’s activities. A perfect base from which to practice, reflect upon and discuss the craft of photography with our guides and fellow tour participants.

We look forward to sharing our passion for the Island and showing you what an incredibly special place it is whilst honing your skills in the art of landscape photography. You won’t be disappointed!

So many of the 12 Apostles Lodge Walk guests love photography and for years have been asking for a dedicated photography itinerary that focuses on providing the mentorship of a professional photographer in conjunction with being allowed the time to capture special moments along the Great Ocean Walk.

I’m delighted to announce that I have partnered with the Twelve Apostles Lodge Walk to deliver a small group three-day photography trip departing Saturday 14 September 2019.

This special itinerary has been designed for both photography enthusiasts and professionals with a specific focus on creating the time during walks for photography opportunities.  I will be joining each walk, along with two professional walking guides to provide creative and technical photography advice.

Following each day’s walk, our group returns to our private forest eco-lodge to be treated with foot spas, evening canapes and delicious evening meals.  For those with enough energy, I will be running evening photography workshops, providing tips and skills and sharing knowledge to enhance each day’s photography walk.
