FAQ NOTES VIDEOS CONSULTATIONS
Updated 1 June 2026
The notes and videos on our Solutions website come from our bountiful workshop resources though are presented here independently of specific workshops because of the universal questions they address. Our most commonly asked questions also tend to fall into one or more of the following categories.:
• What are you looking to improve in your photography?
This broad question focuses on the areas of photography that interest you but feel incomplete or under resourced. For example, on aspects of camera craft, printing, workflow, post production, colour management, art history and theory, contemporary fine art practice, career consulting, or other.
• Are there skills that you wish to refine, polish, or perfect?
This question addresses the depth and cohesiveness of your current understanding and practice. For example, you might already be proficient with the basic concepts of digital printing but now want to significantly extend your print preparation and colour management skills. Or you might be already comfortable with your camera handling skills, but now want to significantly extend your understanding and application of pictorial design in the composition of your pictures, and their installation or exhibition.
• Are there difficulties or problems that you need to resolve?
This question is about specific areas of your knowledge and practice that you have already identified as holding you back. For example, are you looking to significantly expand your photographic skills but are concerned your workflow and/or processing methods aren’t where they need to be? Or some aspect of your hardware or software is letting you down? Or you wish there was ‘more’ to your photography and are seeking ways to reinvigorate and reconnect with the photographic reasons you originally fell in love with?
And when needed, additional gains can be rapidly achieved in your personal, creative and professional development through our Workshops, and Production & Mentoring Consultations that continue ‘the conversation’ – supporting your aspirations and objectives, and ensuring profoundly inspiring and engaging outcomes.
