Testimonials from past participants
I joined William’s workshop in March 2024, in Kathmandu, Nepal. I got to experience the festival of Holi there. I learnt a great deal of photography skills through William.
Our days were filled with taking pictures at different locations in Kathmandu with plenty of time at each place to take our pictures.
William imparted his knowledge of compositions and light and shadows in Photography. It was a very productive trip !

Whatever the kind of photography or the level of experience, everyone will benefit greatly from William’s workshops. Conducted in smallish groups, the workshops ensure that everyone gets the personalised coaching one needs. Although I have attended a great many courses, I have picked up numerous valuable tips from this very patient instructor including the importance of layering in picture composition and hunting for the right lighting.
In fact, thanks to William’s guidance, 2 images from his Nepal workshop has won me several local and international awards. I would definitely recommend William’s workshop to anyone who want so take his/her photography to the next level.

William is very enthusiastic, never ending showing how street photos can be taken.
He will provide detailed explanation on a simple question asked, ensuring that we fully understand, and ensure we can apply the theory to phototaking.
I feel more confident in my photography after the Nepal trip. Thank you William for your guidance, sharing and encouragement.
Tour mates are nice and helpful, hotel is good and food is great. William takes good care of everyone during the trip. Can never forget our cute teacher, William, showing us how to take nice photos even when we were in the cab
