A World of Gardens

Through her pictures, multi-award winning photographer, Andrea Jones, will tell us how her 25 year career (so far) in the niche world of horticultural photography evolved and how it has led her to travel widely and document such a vast array of gardens around the globe. In this illustrated talk Andrea will reveal images of many gardens she feels privileged to have had access to over the years and photographed for publication including some new projects that haven’t yet hit the press.

'This evenings garden photography gem was presented to perfection by it’s author Andrea, plenty to love about these images, and opened us to a whole lot of possibilities, and ideas during the presentation, thank you Andrea.'

James C. Nikon Owner's Club

Fred K. Florida, USA

Many thanks for your invitation to Friday's meeting. Andrea is not only an excellent photographer

but a delightful and very modest lady. It all made for a splendid evening.

Garden Inspirations

Based on Andrea's book, The Garden Source.

There is nothing quite like visiting gardens to get ideas for designing your own and in this illustrated talk Andrea hopes to show you many that will inspire and trigger ideas for your own or your clients. As a garden photographer Andrea has had more opportunities than most to visit not just gardens open to the public but some very private gardens too - and in many countries around the world. The range of styles in which gardens have been created is quite phenomenal.

The talk will include many illustrations and Andrea will look at many types of garden styles, including minimal, prairie, geometric, dry, landscaped, gravel, water, exotic, contemporary, modern, minimal, oriental and night.

The Garden Photography Workshop

Based on Andrea's solo book, the talk brings fresh insights to photography basics and shares how to make the most of today’s photography tools—whether your camera is a smartphone or the latest DSLR.

You’ll find new ways to optimise light and colour and create a sense of place. Then get to know ten remarkable gardens and ( if the follow up *morning if required) learn through hands-on lessons in observation, story-telling, composing and editing. Learn to capture your garden at its magical best.

'I am still buzzing with enthusiasm today! The learning experience was far better than I anticipated and extremely enjoyable. All in all, I feel better equipped to take my compositions to the next level, I intend to put into practice what you have taught me. I can certainly use my camera better than at the same time last week.'
