Come along to our photo sessions to dust off your camera and get snap-happy with a professional photography instructor.

Brush up on your camera skills and learn new photography techniques whilst on a photo walk class with other local keen photographers!

We run two hour photography sessions based on a photography theme/technique/style and they take place in various locations in Midland.

  • New to photography? We also run a popular 3 hour Beginners Guide to Photography Class once a month. And once in a while we will run special niche 3 hour classes, for example, Astrophotography - so do subscribe to our newsletter to know when the next on is!

  • Who can attend? Open to all skill levels, from beginners to keen amateurs. The photography instructor is there to help you with camera settings and provide any advice you need.

  • What to bring? We recommend bringing a camera that has full manual mode or semi-manual modes (Aperture or Shutter Priority). Compact cameras and smartphones also welcome!

    The meeting point and full details for the day are sent in the booking confirmation email to the email address you provide at time of booking.

    Title or Location: S of Patricia, TX, on State Hwy 349
    I travel quite a bit for work throughout WTX, and I?m fascinated by so many dilapidated structures I see. I call them ?Ghost Structures?. This one caught my attention because of the condition of the building, its immediate surroundings with fallen trees, of which, one of them seemed uprooted by the recent strong winds. The dirt/sand?s red/orange coloration is incredibly beautiful and seemed to blend with the colors of the dilapidated remnants of the building. The gray skies provided great

    Title or Location: The Petroleum Building on N Texas Ave in Midland TX
    The Petroleum Building is probably one of my favorites in the Permian basin. I've always gravitated towards this building and have an winter series on it on my Facebook account. I love any old large building, even more so when the light hits it just right.

    Title or Location: Odessa TC
    This is an older building that reminds of peak 60s oilfield here in the basin. I like driving around Odessa an otherwise unassuming town and take shots of the old building that are still standing the test of time. This one Ive passed many times and didn't think much of it until we here driving around wasting a roll of film waiting on a bakery shoot, it was a gloomy day and kind of chilly. It just looked right thru the lens. I shot this on a Mintola SRT 101 with a 28mm lens! The film is Phoenix

    Title or Location: Bandera Texas
    This ground to sky upward lightning was captured on May 1, 2025 near Bandera Texas using a full frame digital Nikon with a 28mm lens. I had the ISO set to 200 and the aperture at F/9 focused to infinity. It is a 30 second exposure. This was a very lucky shot as I had just moved the camera to view this portion of the sky moments before it happened. Although it looks like the lightning is coming from the ground, it's actually emerging from a tall radio tower about 6 miles out. The image is

So happy when I reviewed the photo on the back of the camera to have captured this to Icons of the sky together in the same shot.Taken on a night away camping at Cosy Corner in the Bay of Fires area Tasmania, Australia on the 1st May 2025. There was a predicted Aurora Australis, so I went to the beach in expectation and when I got there about 09:30 pm, this was the first shot I took, it looked great in the back of camera.
