You can't beat a warm summers evening when the golden sky is filled with the sights and sounds of our most iconic summer visitors!

Join me for a local summer’s evening Photo Walk where we'll explore the exciting array of summertime flora in the golden light (hopefully). From exquisite orchids to more overlooked wonders like bird’s-foot trefoil, whatever you turn your lens to, I'll be on hand to share key tips and settings to help you get the best from these all too fleeting encounters.
After a couple of hours we'll head back to the studio for a hot drink, biscuit and a quick edit before printing x3 A5 greetings cards of your favourite shot.
Whitby: Street x Wildlife Photography Photo Walk
Location: Whitby
Terrain: Steep slopes and hills, uneven and muddy ground, 5 miles (approx)
Whitby has something to offer every kind of photographer and never fails to inspire! For this special, one-off Photo Walk I want to share some of the iconic and some of the hidden corners of this famous location, while highlighting some of the exciting photo opportunities on offer when we look beyond our typical scope and tropes with a camera. I’ll also share several ideas from this location that led to shortlisted photos in prestigious awards.
Can I bring children?
From an early age, photography has played such a key role in my life. As part of my desire to champion photography to young people I offer free places for under 16s when accompanied by a paying adult.
What if the weather forecast is bad?
You may be surprised just how many bad forecasts result in beautiful days - it happens a lot!
Walking Photography will always try and proceed with a planned photo walk. If extreme weather conditions or severe accessibility issues arise, then the walk date will rearranged for a convenient date.
What if the weather is bad?
It is surprisingly rare to have an event that is completely marred by the weather. With a deep to commitment to offering fun and enjoyable photo walks and workshops, if the event is judged to have been ruined by the weather participants will be given a 50% discount voucher off a future Photo Walk workshop up to the same value.
Can I bring my camera phone or tablet?
Yes! We welcome camera phone and tablet walkers on most photo walks. There are some events like Get a Grip Course and the Night Photo Walks where you require manual functions on your camera. Such events are clearly noted in the descriptions.
What is the accessibility like?
Accessibility varies widely from event to event. Please get in touch with any accessibility questions.
Walking Photography also offers Private Leisure Tours at a fixed rate that can be tailored to address any accessibility needs.
