Reviews
I used my creative kids voucher to do a 2 hour DSLR camera zoom lesson with Scott on the 12/01/2021.
I was a novice with a DSLR camera but with Scott’s guidance I feel I learnt so much in such a short time. His explanations were simple enough to understand and he made the lesson interesting and practical.
Scott was very professional and approachable.
I would recommend anyone who would like to learn more about photography to take a lesson with Scott. I am looking forward to doing another lesson with Scott in the future to deepen my photography knowledge once I have fine tuned what he has taught me this time.

A terrific way to start a Sydney morning. Scott showed us how to create a number of sunrise photos with a variety of setting and then a very cooperative group of locals enabled us to try to get some exciting photos as they braved the surf. Excellent morning where I learnt a great deal, now to practise and practise.
Hands down the best photography class I have attended, I learnt so much over the 4 week period and will definitely be taking some one on one classes with Scott at a future date.
A Fantastic action packed lesson in learning how to shoot in manual mode using Circular Quay as your classroom. Scott is highly knowledgeable and definitely shared his years of wisdom with me. I would highly recommend!
The half day Saturday course met and exceeded all expectations. Scott is incredibly knowledgeable and experienced – and takes the time needed to make sure everyone understands what’s going on. The time was informative and fun, I learnt so much more than I thought I would be capable of. As essentially a complete beginner, I left the course with experience, my notes to remind me of it all, a road forward and an enthusiasm to build on it all. I left the session understanding (at last) core fundamentals around manual photography and just as importantly my camera. It’s also a beautiful location in the rocks to learn from. Thanks Scott!
Scott was more than thorough and answered all my questions on our 3 hour private photography lesson! I highly recommend booking at least 3 hours if you haven’t turned on a camera before, and then a couple subsequent ones to learn the specifics of aperture, iso, and shutter speed! All so different depending on what you are photographing! I’m looking forward to my next lesson with Scott. Highly recommend !
Great session with Scott! He showed me lots of different tricks on my phone and made it easy and really fun to learn!! I look forward to learning more . Stella
Scott McGale is not just a professional photographer but, a passionate artist. The 3 hours were full of practical information . With written and practical points about how and when to shoot in different scenarios, Scott made the practice session easy and fun. Can’t wait to practice and try what I learnt and hopefully, get to attend more workshops with Scott .
Just a quick note to say how much I enjoyed last Sunday Morning. In all aspects it was a great morning.The level of knowledge and the presentation where first class and it will certainly help me in my photographic endeavours.
Thank you Scott for the fun and informative Smartphone Photography Session yesterday.
I can highly recommend this to anybody wanting to learn how to use their phone to take great photos.😊👍👏
