    "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."

    "Meghan has been the most helpful and caring photographer I have had the pleasure to meet, she has that special quality (and patience) that very few are blessed with to be the perfect teacher and along with her amazing photography is a mentor to us all... I have been so privileged to have her assistance on my learning journey, something I will be forever grateful for..."
