“I had a wonderful experience on my whale photography workshop with Michael. It was well organised, and Michael was the perfect tutor. Communication was great, he was very patient and I received my money’s worth.
I will definitely be back!!!!”

“I have been an avid nature photographer for over twenty five years, not a professional but a keen amateur. Over that time, I have attended quite a number of photography trips across Australia and some overseas, with some poor experiences among them. I met Michael Snedic a few years ago on his Lord Howe Island tour and from the minute I met him, I realised I had finally found the right person and photography trip to join.
Michael is, without doubt, one of the most passionate people I have ever met. His enthusiasms is infectious and he is very inspirational. What Michael doesn’t know about photography, especially wildlife and nature, is not worth knowing. He is very patient and has no problem going over technique that took me (and others) a few goes to grasp. He is always there to lend advice and makes sure each and every person is doing okay with their cameras and photography techniques.
I can say, without exception, that I and the other workshop attendees received lots of photography tuition, more than on ANY other photo trip I have ever attended. The itinerary was also perfectly balanced, with a mix of photographing in wonderful locations, with a bit of free time thrown in.
I have since been on more photo trips with Michael and I can say, without hesitation, that I always come back with a huge grin, better equipped to take photos and lots of great photos on my hard drive. My biggest problem is to choose what trip I will do with Michael next!
I can highly recommend Michael Snedic’s photography trips over any others out there on the market today. You will not be disappointed.

“What’s the ranking of Antarctica on your bucket list? It was top on mine. Pushed by my wife who did not mind me going alone to freeze my butts I decided to join an expedition organised by 2 professional photographers, David Burren and Michael Snedic (that I met at a photo club) and 17 other amateur photographers. And boy was I right to do so!!! The very friendly atmosphere and comfort of a beautiful ship with skilled and safety conscious staff made the experience unforgettable. From our Quark Expeditions cruise start in Ushuaia to our return 13 days after, it’s been non-stop amazement at glaciers, icebergs, penguins, seals, whales, seabirds… in our daily zodiac excursions and landings which even drove us past the Antarctic circle. The light conditions, the blues of the ice, the midnight sunsets were so extreme and diverse that we needed lots of advices and that’s where Michael and David kicked in brilliantly giving us with remarkable dedication relentless group sessions and personal tuition. I learnt more on photography in these 2 weeks than in many years before, turning from a shy ‘automatic’ photographer to a more adventurous ‘manual’ photographer. I can’t wait to go back with Michael and David in another photographic expedition and adventure”.

“Wow! What a destination. We have just returned from paradise. With the very able assistance of both Michael and David who guided us on this journey we experienced daily interactions with birds, penguins, seals, whales, icebergs, and incredible scenery. The company of other photographers meant we had two zodiacs to ourselves and had time to explore, time to stop and interact with the wildlife, and time to take photos. I would recommend this trip to anyone who has an interest in photography and I am already looking at visiting the Arctic in the near future.”
