Sydney Phone Photography Workshop - Coogee Playing with Time

No experience needed, just curiosity and a playful spirit. Our 5-star reviews say it best: you’ll never look at your phone camera the same way again.

What To Expect
Coogee is one of Sydney’s most loved beaches, and at golden hour it’s pure magic. As the sun softens, the waves blur into silk, seagulls hover, a volleyball soars through the air and the whole beach glows.
That’s when we play with time. Your photo guide, Colin, will show you how to use your phone’s camera to stop, blur and stretch time: long exposures that turn waves into mist, time-lapse and slow motion, creative compositions with surf, rocks and beach life, and hidden camera features you’ve probably never tried.
More than a photo lesson, it’s a chance to slow down and really observe. Call it mindful photography: noticing the moments most people walk straight past.
Over three relaxed hours, we’ll follow the light as it changes from golden hour to blue hour.
Suitable for all skill levels, all ages and any smartphone, including complete beginners.
What you will need
A smartphone, fully charged
A basic tripod and phone mount (we can lend you one of each, just ask)
A basic level of fitness, as we’ll be walking for most of the workshop
A water bottle and a light layer for when the sea breeze picks up
