What people have to say

Booked Mali for a 1:1 session at Tarn How's. The weather wasn’t great, with rain predicted all morning, but Mali's enthusiasm (despite his very early set off time) knew now bounds and was infectious. Despite knowing my way around my camera, Mali's tips and advice throughout were littered with gems of advice for which my photography will improve.

What a wonderful morning spent with Mali, his knowledge and passion for photography just shines through. Mali wants to share and ensure you get the most of the images you get, pointing out composition after composition. If there was only one thing to say, it would be 'he knows his stuff'. Mali knows the areas he takes you to and ensures you come away with quality.

Mali was the perfect workshop leader. His enthusiasm is infectious. His passion, inspiring. His knowledge, and ability to communicate his wisdom, would be difficult to equal. Thanks to Mali, I came away from the experience feeling energised, motivated and eager to develop further as a photographer, but also with some beautiful images and very happy memories.
