INTRODUCTION
This three day coastal exploration of North Norfolk, gives you the opportunity to explore a hidden gem in the East of England. With the advantage of a professional photographer on hand, first we will explore Thornham's Old Harbour and the tranquil sand dunes of Holme, which open into a stunning shingle spit nature reserve. The carefully selected hidden locations offer multiple composition opportunities in order to help diversify your portfolio. We will all stay in beautiful hotel close to all the locations, giving us perfect access to the stunning Norfolk landscape!
OVERVIEW
Day 1 (5th Nov) 12pm - 6.30pm
We will meet at the hotel in Brancaster at 12.00pm and check-in to the local accommodation. After a team lunch in the village, Anthony will have the opportunity to run through the full itinerary of the workshop and allow the group the opportunity to get to know each other. After lunch, we head to the coast exploring The Old Harbour of Thornham, where we start the process of shooting with Neutral Density filters, and Anthony will offer invaluable advice on achieving the best results. We will explore 2-3 locations in this area, including the sand dunes of Holme and the shingle spit, finishing the day with a sunset shoot in Hunstanton. The idea of the first day is to familiarise yourself with the ND filters, and the settings required to capture the perfect long exposure.
Day 2 (6th Nov) 7am - 4pm
An early start at Blakeney Point, we'll head out in a private boat to shoot the old lifeboat station and surrounding fishing huts, plus the chance to see the local seal colony! Prior to lunch, we'll then head to the stunning Holkham beach where you'll have the opportunity to master your long exposure photography. After Fish and Chips at the infamous French's in Well's, we make our way to the colourful beach huts, dunes and stunning sands of Wells Next-to-the-Sea finishing at 4pm. A sunset shoot will be available for those who wish to head down to the beach.
Day 3 (7th Nov) 7am - 4pm
Today we head back to Hunstanton, but this time for a sunrise shoot, exploring the maze of stone formations, beach groins and famous cliffs. We then make our way along the coast heading south towards Snettisham to shoot the old pier. All these locations are ideal for long exposure photography and offer a multitude of compositions. We head back to The Orange Tree or Hero for a pub lunch, and then end the day back at base with an editing masterclass, that will include editing styles, processing, sharpening techniques, cloning, and the opportunity to talk through Anthony's edit style.
Day 4 (8th Nov) Departure Day
For those who wish, we can squeeze one last sunrise shoot in prior to leaving the hotel, then head back for breakfast and check out at 12pm.
