Personalised Landscape Photography Coaching
Get consistent results in the field and at the computer — without guesswork, gear-chasing, or wasted trips.
Do you already love landscape photography?
You understand the basics … BUT … your results feel inconsistent and you’re not sure why.
This personalised coaching is designed to help you photograph with confidence, edit with intention, and build a repeatable process that works in real-world conditions.
I’m John Doogan, a successful landscape photographer and educator. I help photographers move from frustration with inconsistency, to producing images they’re proud of.
