Excellent course for children!

 

Michael was well prepared and had created a brief plan for the class. It consisted of a short game to set a goal for the children, followed by a short walk during which they could try out different photos under his guidance. The length was just right for children of this age (8–9 years old), and Michael taught in German and English. Overall, a very good experience that I would recommend. We will probably attend another class.

 

My children really enjoyed it – and that’s the most important thing!

Your Teacher

Hi! I'm Michael...

I'm an Australian photographer and filmmaker from Sydney, living in Dresden since 2010. My parents gave me my first analogue camera when I was just 10 years old – and photography has been my passion ever since. Over the past 30 years, I've collaborated with countless musicians, artists, and creatives, bringing their ideas to life visually. I'm fluent in German and English and work as a freelance photographer. I enjoy sharing my experience and helping others discover their own creative passion – whether with a camera or a smartphone.
