What to Expect

Join us in on the Dingle Peninsula for what promises to be a great days shooting with like minded people. This will be a full day workshop and will run from 8am (sunrise is at 8.45am) – 4.45pm (sunset). We will meet to start the workshop at 8am in the Marina car park in Dingle and join me in my luxury 9 seater mini bus for the duration of the workshop. Once we shoot sunirse we will make a quick dash to getr breakfast and coffee and shoot for the remainder of the day. If anyone is peckish around lunch we can also get a quick sandwich or soup too. We will finish up at 4.45pm and I will return you to your cars at the Marina. You are also welcome to attend and drive your own car to each location.

Its pretty much going to be the middle of Winter, so lets hope its WILD!!

Please Note: Should weather be too wild or if there are weather warnings in place, we will reschedule the workshop or you will be given a voucher of the full amount paid with no expiry date. We should be able to give 2/3 days notice if the weather will be too bad.

Transportation

Once you make your way to Dingle you will not have to drive for the rest of the tour as we take you around in our fully insured and spacious luxury 9 seater mini bus, which comes fully air-conditioned, with power points for charging all phones and cameras.

If people prefer, you are more than welcome to drive your own car should you feel it more appropriate.

Weather

Ireland isn’t exactly known for its sunny weather, but what it can be known for is the amazing light, stormy seas and moody clouds. No matter what the weather, you can be sure we are in the right part of the country to capture what ever mood is thrown at us. As the weather is so unpredictable in Ireland its impossible to set out a definite itinerary until we actually start the workshop, I will however be keeping a very very close eye on the weather throughout the day to make sure I get you in the right place, at the right time, for the right light.
