“Honey's phone course is a great length, practical and punchy. All thriller no filler! She goes through step by step, at a pace that suited me, and I got great-looking photos for my business. Knowing she offers after-course support was vital for me to sign up. Awesome!”

“I've been fortunate to complete 2 courses with Honey - her online "Phone Photography for Business Owners" and in-person "Create and Capture" design and branding workshop. Honey's quality resources and inspirational teaching has enabled me to take and present more professional photos using my phone!”

Animal Impact

Animal Impact provides targeted mobile goat grazing services for weed control and fire mitigation and is based in the Bega Valley.

“As I work with animals in nature, I am probably best placed to capture the magic of what we do, but lacked the skills and confidence to do it. Honey's course gave me some great practical tips to make good compositional choices, and the skills to give my photos a professional polish..”
