    "My friends & I have just had a couple of fantastic days out with Meghan. We have certainly come away with new found knowledge & confidence in our photography skills. Meghan, as seen by her own fantastic photos (not surprising she is a Sony Ambassador) is a brilliant tutor with a wealth of knowledge & skill. Endlessly patient too, especially with post processing. Meghan has boundless energy & enthusiasm & a real passion for photography which she is only too happy to share. We will be back for more! Thanks Meghan."

    "Having just come off an 8 day workshop with Meghan, I can absolutely recommend the experience to anyone interested in photography. The group of 5 participants had a wide range of photographic experience and skills, but the needs of each were catered to by Meghan's care and attention to detail. The itinerary was adapted where and when necessary to ensure that we had the very best opportunities to make great images. A most enjoyable experience."

    "Meghan's knowledge of the places you visit on a workshop is second to none. Having great locations like this really assists in getting the best out of everyone's photography. We found her to be a great teacher and she makes you excited to try different types of photography that you may not have had a preference for. For me it was the astro part of the workshop - I had never tried this before but ended up loving it. I highly recommend Meghan's workshops and look forward to doing another."

    "Having followed Meghan and her captivating portrayal of New Zealand’s landscape on instagram for over 5 years, I’ve finally had the opportunity to join her 5-week online live photography course. Meghan has a gift to explain the “how to” of landscape photography in a very clear, easy to understand and enjoyable manner. Her depth of knowledge in every aspect will prove a more than worthwhile investment for anyone who enjoys this form of photography, whether novice or experienced"
