I ve been on three courses with Ollie
I ve been on three courses with Ollie the first in August 2020 2 nights in Dorset then June 2022 1 week in Santorini Greece and then December 2023 10 days in Iceland I am very much a beginner when it comes to using a camera and Ollie has been super patient and helpful in making sure I ve got the right lenses and set up to get the best from the shoots I have loved each of the courses for different reasons and have also really enjoyed meeting and spending time with like minded people Everyone has been super welcoming and helpful on the courses I ve been on What I love is that Ollie organises everything he s done the planning for the location the time the weather You just need to follow his instructions and rock up with the right equipment What is great is that he is also agile and flexible allowing you to shift plans based on the weather This was super handy in Iceland as you never know what is going to happen day to day and we were able to chase the clear skies around the island I will definitely be booking more courses in the future and look forward to discovering new places around the world Being part of a photography group is such a unique way to travel and see and experience things you would never get to do on a normal holiday Highly recommended

One of the best
Beyond being an amazing photographer Ollie s a fantastic workshop leader I joined his group in Bolivia and while it s not one of the easiest places to visit Ollie had all the logistics worked out seamlessly and brought us to unreal locations for landscape and astrophotography He did a great job making time to work with everyone based on their own interests and skill levels helped point out interesting compositions and always kept the camaraderie of the group high Can t wait to join him on another workshop

Off-the-beaten-path experience
I have attended two workshops with Ollie so far one in Iceland and another in La Palma and I can t recommend him highly enough The techniques and tips you learn are incredibly valuable but what truly sets Ollie apart is his knack for taking you to stunning off-the-beaten-path locations that you wouldn t find on your own This makes the entire experience not just educational but genuinely special Whether you re just starting out in astrophotography or you re an advanced enthusiast choosing Ollie is the best decision you can make He will elevate your skills to the next level all while ensuring you have an unforgettable and thrilling experience

The best trip ever
The first best trip I ever booked was Iceland with Ollie in November 2021 I totally loved it Ollie was all over the weather making sure we had every opportunity to capture the aurora at the best locations This was a constant juggle to get clear skies in awesome locations with the best accommodation available I always felt safe despite the wild weather and learned so many photography tips and tricks I went to Tenerife in May 2022 delayed from COVID times learned even more and had a blast In August 2023 I joined his workshop in the Atacama and it became my new best trip ever Ollie goes beyond with his preparation and planning for logistics locations and accommodation He flexes as needed keeping you safe and ensuring everyone has the best time no matter their skills and abilities I will never forget that feeling of getting the shot of my lifetime with his help in the freezing cold at 4800m on the edge of a salt lagoon under those stars I have already booked another trip
