Emirates One&Only Wolgan Valley partners with Canon Australia and Renowned Photographer Joshua Smith 

 

Emirates One&Only Wolgan Valley presents the perfect canvas for avid or budding photographers to craft their skills on quintessential Australian landscapes and wildlife, all within this majestic property. Guests are invited to join Canon professional, and renowned Australian photographer, Joshua Smith, for a photography masterclass in the mountains during two exclusive photography weekends on 23 to 25 March and 17 to 19 August 2018. Joshua’s passion lies in capturing the untouched beauty of rural and regional Australia, including its awe-inspiring natural landscapes and wide expansive night skies, and guests will be able to learn from the master himself during the weekend escapes at Emirates One&Only Wolgan Valley.

Joshua has worked as a contributing photographer for Canon Australia for many years which has resulted in incredible exhibitions, landscape and aerial images that showcase Joshua’s commitment to the environment and rural Australia. Each two-day interactive masterclass at Emirates One&Only Wolgan Valley will include landscape and wildlife photography by day and astrophotography by night, where guests will be able to capture the milky way in all its spectacular glory. Under the expert guidance of Joshua Smith, each guest will utilise the latest Canon Pro-level camera bodies and Professional L Series lenses, stabilised by Carbon Fibre Manfrotto tripods to learn how to photograph the spectacular scenery, as well as learn how to professionally edit photos. Guests will be able to take home the beautiful images they have taken during the weekend.

“I am extremely excited to host two photography weekends at one of the most exquisite locations in Australia” says Joshua Smith. “The iconic sandstone ridges and clear night sky at Emirates One&Only Wolgan Valley provides the perfect backdrop for guests to create some wonderful images using the latest Canon Pro-level equipment.”
